Check out our little soccer player.....

We took John David to the park this morning to play at the playground and run around in the grass.  Check out his mad soccer skills.  He has been working with his Dad for a few weekends now.  Unfortunately, I took this video with my iPhone and then emailed it to myself so the quality is not the greatest, but I think you get the idea.

Belgium's Beach

Easter Monday is a holiday in Belgium so we decided to check out the beach.  Yes there is a beach, believe it or not, about an hour and half from Brussels.  It was about 80 degrees in Brussels when we left but closer to 65 degrees at the beach.  Lots of people where out sunbathing and believe it or not swimming.  This is the North Sea so it is just a bit colder than what we were used to in Greece.  John David wasn't too sure at first but once he got the hang of it he absolutely loved playing in the sand and running around on the beach.  Kind of makes me sad that he missed out on all that good beach time in Greece!

Not too sure about this...

Actually it seems pretty fun

Very clean and nice beach.  Kind of reminded me of the beaches in North Carolina without the waves



We had to chase him all over the beach.  He loved it!

Touching the ocean for the first time.  Actually the North Sea to be exact...

And it is COLD!!!!






Lots of good sand to throw
