Welcome to our Garden

A friend of mine gave us some of the left over articial grass she had from doing her entire backyard. It was about enough to cover about 3x4 feet or about a third of our terrace. The kids love it!

Tour de France/Independence Day

We celebrated the Fourth of July watching the Tour de France come through Antwerp. Our friends, Amelia and Rajat hosted us and several other friends at their apartment that directly overlooked the route. We decorated their balcony with American flags and were so loud that just about everyone along the street was looking up at us. Craig was not very happy about celebrating Fourth of July with our British friend, Richard, and wanted to know who invited him.

I think it only took all 197 cyclists about 45 seconds to pass us. It was still so exciting. Rajat taped it on the TV so we watched it and cheered again like it was the first time we saw them.
