Last weekend, we celebrated my (Eva’s) birthday. The birthday itself was on friday, but that day was spent just working. We did have my mother and sister over, but the rest of the family and friends came by on saturday.
The day didnt start out very smooth. Both Bas and I seemed to have picked up a rather nasty mood somewhere during the night and neither of us was looking forward to doing all the groceries and getting the house ready. But Koen cheered us both up and around noon the clouds seemed to have mostly cleared… The first visitors arrived at 1.30 and after that it was a full house untill about 6. There were 5 kids under 4 and about 15 adults, so it was nice and crowded. Luckily it was a rather nice day so most people walked outside every now and then for some fresh air.
Bas made a great chicken soup and after eating that, we sent people along. We quickly got the house back in order and then crashed on the couch…
Sunday we mostly just relaxed. Bas slept in really late and after that we went into town for some errands, and we had a nice (late) lunch in a great diner in the middle of the park. After that, Bas went of to visit a friend and Koen and I walked around the park, looking at all the animals.
Quite a good weekend, and with beautifull weather on sunday! And of course, everybody: thanks for all the cards, flowers and presents!
