Good Times Happen For Those Who Visit
First, I’d like to apologize to my Auntie R for my blog posting slackness. My only excuse is that the weather has been perfect. Two weekends ago (already?!), Shane and I were thrilled to host 2 new visitors, my Aunt Rebecca and her friend, Marlee!

It’s daylight, there is actual visible blue sky, and the wind isn’t blowing (you’ll just have to trust me on that last part). That’s spring in theContinue reading “Spring has Sprung !”
The Final Countdown!
It’s official! In less than a month we’ll be making our way home for the holidays! To kick it off, this weekend was a weekend of celebrations! Shane turned 30, Sinterklaas arrived, and we took a little stroll through the Groningen countryside. So, the last part really isn’t a celebration but we did it, andContinue reading “The Final Countdown!”
Our Fall, In Review
Hey there friendly readers! I know, we’ve kept you waiting in anticipation for far too long. I apologize. (hah) Oh, and no. That picture of the beautiful tree isn’t here. I stole it from Sis because sadly enough I didn’t get any fall foliage pictures this year. Actually, this brings me to the first itemContinue reading “Our Fall, In Review”
