Hoogeveens in Switzerland!


My mom and dad were able to come out at the end of June and spend 2 wonderful weeks with us. I woke up early to meet my parents for their flight (6:30 am arrival which means leave Egg EARLY), so I got to see the sunrise. Here's a photo:

They arrived on June 21 after a long day of travel, and after waiting a while for their plane to land, we finally got to give them hugs. It took a little while longer to get our car rented, and then we said goodbye to Andy (he went to work) and then Dad (while jet-lagged) proceeded to drive us home to Egg. Go Dad! Once we got home, my parents opened the suitcase with stuff for us, and Carsten immediately played with his new train set. Just a note: it's 3 weeks later and he still LOVES playing with it. Love it when that happens.  My parents took a pretty good nap while Carsten napped, which worked out pretty well. They were still sleeping when Carsten woke up, and despite the fact that he was playing right next to them, they kept on sleeping - champion sleepers!! We spent the rest of the day getting everything ready to go for our roadtrip to Germany which we started the next day. Here's a photo of Carsten and Grandma playing with the new train set:
