Maxima

Well, it felt like Tuesday again today.  But it turned out to be a nice family day.  So, Sunday it is.  It started when Nancy and mommy arrived for some fun in the garden.  The weather is again beautiful and so we went to a petting zoo in town.  It had lots of goats, so a big hit with me also since I adore goats.  I almost got locked up inside the rooster house. 

They were closing and we did not know it…….all of a sudden, in Dutch language everyone was saying to get out.  I was busy staring at a periwinkle colored parakeet.  So, beautiful and so unusual.  Suddenly, Blips rushes in the bird house and says…hurry, hurry, they are closing

Our lunch was one of our favorites, saucijzenbroodjes(sausage inside a buttery baked flaky bun) with salads and homemade breads, cheese, ham…….

We played in the playhouse and on the whip/wop (teeter totter).  Nancy has her own language but also a few American words….WOW… is one she uses.  She is a very active girl who is easy to smile and give out kisses.  She smiles with her whole face.  It just makes you want to scoop her up in a big hug…..but she is gone doing something else before you can wrap your arms around her. Jonna and Nancy play very nice together and are considerate of each other and share the toys.  It was a content and happy day to just spend watching our granddaughters play together.

We had Chinese take out for dinner and our favorites were included…curry pork and satay chicken.  Tomorrow we are off to Amsterdam for 3 days.  It is supposed to rain on Monday but we don’t care because it seems like Tuesday anyway
