Quote of the Day: Saturday

"Ok, ok, you do not have to crescendo in public."

Trying to save the planet

If you decide to save the planet and not get extra plastic bags for your fruits and veggies at the grocery store, you may end up with the price stickers stuck directly on to your food!

Our new addition!

No no, it's not what you're thinking... we bought a drier! I know this may not sound like a big deal, but for the last three months we've been wearing stiff, crunchy clothing, and hauling all of our towels and bedding to a nearby laundry service place. But, now, jammed into our closet, we have a shiny new drier. I love it already!

Day trip with the ladies

It was a cold rainy day but that didn't stop us from going on a mini-train-adventure (it wasn't a mini train, it was a mini adventure taken via train) and exploring Utrecht!

We found a very cool place to hang out

more pics to come!

it feels like spring time!

Torrey and Daniel ready to ride

babies in bikes

As you all have figured out by now, Amsterdam is a biking town. Everyone bikes everywhere in every kind of weather. Some bikes have these huge baskets in front for children to ride in. I saw this doll in this bike basket and thought it was too cute so I wanted to share it.

Look who rolled into town...

I feel like I am fighting a loosing battle with the Dutch language

Happy Square Root Day!
