A family trip

It's a tradition that every year in spring we go on a trip with Klaas's dad's side of the family. It was the first time including Elliot although last year we'd just found out he was in our lives on the very morning we left for the trip.

This year we went to Borgloon because of the orchards and because we'd been to the Ardennes three times already. Elliot still needs plenty of naps (and being with 9 other people he didn't know made him sleepy to no end) so aside from going on a few walks, I actually didn't do much. Still, I didn't mind. I was perfectly content spending time with our precious little baby. :) Klaas joined the others at a wine tasting on Saturday and then went to the city of Tongeren on Sunday.

And now for some pictures!

 We walked the Pit route, a hike along several works of art. 

This church was one of those artworks. You can see what it looked like on the inside in the picture below.

We really enjoyed ourselves and it's always fun to see Klaas's family again. It doesn't happen very often that we're all in the same place at the same time.

A walk in the park

After dinner tonight, we figured it would be fun to go for a walk in the park. So we went and took Flo and Juul with us. They were such good dogs, even when we took off their leashes. They always came running back to us whenever we called their names.

I took these pictures while we were out. There's something about them that makes me feel all cozy and mushy and romantic.

Such a hot, hot man. Yowzah!

 

By the way. Exactly how much does it look like we're taking a Fall walk? I want green leaves and colorful flowers!
