Peter wishing there were hills in Belgium!


Peanut and Miya



Peanut and Miya in the Snow!

This isn't Portugal?

No it is our home in Belgium. Due to this snow we missed our flight to Portugal and therefore our holiday. We were to spend 10 days in Lagos, Algave in Portugal but got caught in this snow storm and arrived 1 hour late for our flight. Being Ryanair that was that. So we are spending Christmas at home with 15mm of snow!

Almost back to school

Well the long summer vacation is almost over as the kids go back to school next Wednesday 19 Aug. Yet again poor Peter will have a birthday soon after school starts. I can't believe that Kate will be going to High School (Grade 9) and Peter will be going to Middle School (Grade 6). There have been a lot of changes to the school this year so it will be a really new feel.
