Happy Day!

It was the highlight of Kaemon's 2.5 years- the Katwijkse Truck-Run! A parade of trucks of all sorts and sizes, police vehicles, fire engines organised for handicapped kids (they were in the trucks waving to everyone). It was a serious Good Time!

A good start to the week's holiday coming up....

Sorry, another video, we use the blog like a photo album because I'm too lazy to make a real one.

My Child Prodigy

He takes requests and improvises with the best of them. (thanks again to Ingrid for taking care of his musical career!)

It's been 2+ weeks of perfect weather: sweaty and hot! I can't express enough how GREAT it is to live close to the beach. There is endless entertainment for the kids, there is something so magical of the perpetual waves breaking. A few hours at the beach is a holiday in itself!!

The kids (and Sophie) love the tent- it means lunch is served...
Kaemon 'Baywatch' Vellinga to the rescue

With the Meijer Family, picture perfect!

The day we swam in the toxic lake....retrospectively, it seems strange that we were the only ones in the water.

After work, a quick picnic on the beach- everyone has already gone home and we're the only ones....bliss!

Sugar replenishment to last the day

Me & the boyz

The house is poxed!

First Kaemon got it (1 day after coming back from Barcelona thank goodness) but it was mild, not even worth a photo! He then passed it on to Nelson who was covered from head to toe and more than a week later is still offcially contagious (blisters on his fingertips!). Poor miserable baby...

He's a little better now, scabs dropping all over the place like confetti...

It was cake-making time again, Akemi's birthday- with three boys in the house, I like any excuse to make something girly.
