Thanksgiving in Copenhagen

We went to visit our very good friends, the Byrne's, at their new post in Copenhagen, Denmark for Thanksgiving. Despite the cold and rainy weather we had a great time.  It was so nice being able to catch up and John David had a blast playing with their three boys.

 





"The Little Mermaid"




We visited Hamlet's Castle which was beautiful. Unfortunately, we got there just as it was closing so we didn't get to go inside.





It was even decorated for Christmas


John David spent a lot of time in the stroller...he was such a trooper


If there is one thing that Copenhagen has a lot of its bikes. These people bike everywhere.


David and Dan took the kids to the park on the bikes. I was a little nervous (and I think David was too) because it had been a few years since David had been on a bike.


I could never get them to all sit still at the same time...hence the blurry picture of the four of them playing


We had so much fun spending time with our friends...can't wait to do it again soon.

When Dad comes home....

John David gets so excited when his Dad comes home every night. As soon as he hears David's keys in the door he runs over to greet him. We thought you would enjoy a look...

Fall Fun

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks. Fall has to be one of my favorite times of year, especially in Brussels. The trees are so beautiful right now and the weather hasn't turned cold and rainy (yet).


Playing with his buddy Griffin at the playground


John David went as a Cowboy's player for Halloween because his mother kind of dropped the ball on finding him a proper costume.


This weekend we took a trip to this amazing playground.  It is better suited for bigger kids but John David had a big time playing on the swings and going down the slide.

John David got to carve his first pumpkins this year. He wasn't quite sure at first and kept trying to put the "guts" back inside. However, he loved to see them all lit up.




Tuesday was a national holiday so David had the day off. It was absolutely beautiful so we took John David on a walk in the forest so he could play in the leaves.




Could I be any cuter?
