A Day With Jas Milou Skyler & Tineke ~

 Thursday Milou was off, and Jason took a day off - so we decided to meet for lunch at a familiar place called "Zo" - we had been there before!

I invited Tineke to join us too, she too had a day off!  OK - 1:30 for lunch!

 Jas & Milou and Skyler was already there!

 "Hi Guys!"

"Hi Skyler!  Oma is here!  How is my little Skyler doing???"

 Cute huh?  She looked so' intently to Tineke's Lab - "Ben" 

Sweet Little Skyler!

 We enjoyed a very nice lunch and then decided to take a walk on the beach of Scheveningen...

See The Beach Live ~

 Wow...lookie Nico...walking Ben....very good Nico!

We had to walk down towards the beach and many many other people did the same this Thursday afternoon!  The Sun was out (no rain!) and everyone takes advantage of a walk on the beach!

 Nick said "Ellen take a picture of this table" so I did...do you see the metal stand...they slip the 4 boards in there and now have a table! 

What an idea....such a handy design somebody thought out!  Nick said - instead of a "saw horse" they have thought of this and it is easily taken apart and put away for the winter time!

 There is the Scheveningen Pier!

 "Skyler!" "Skyler!"

On the news the evening before they had said there was a whale floating out at sea...and so they had to bring it in and the Environmental Dept had to come out and take the whale out...

 It was a very big job that took all day...but it has to be done~ 

 Jas was running backwards and Skyler was running toward him....so cute!

 Tineke invited the kids back to her house for some drinks in the backyard ~ How nice for this Mama! 

Yes it was a lovely afternoon and evening! 

We ordered Pizza and we sat together for a good meal -

Bart too came and joined us and later after dinner Marleen did too!

 We enjoyed sitting in her backyard after a nice stroll on the beach!  The Sun was still out!



Nick hung up the signs for Tin in her backyard....something she wanted done and he was glad to help!  "Ben" is her dog and that is their last name! 

 The Pizza were freshly made and we all enjoyed a personal pizza...and Bart did a good job cutting some in half with a very special scissor!

Good job Bart! 

 Marleen - Tineke's daughter came over for a short visit - how sweet!  She adores her girlfriend's little daughter!  And Skyler loves her "LEEN" as she calls her! 

Tineke shows Marleen and Skyler the "Ben" talking dog on the cell phone - the App that we introduced her too!  The dog is called Ben just like her Lab!  Skyler had already been shown Ben on the App...so together they laughed as "Ben" repeated everything you said!

 What a sweet picture of three very special people I love! 

 Skyler looked again so intently....just love taking these special snaps of her! 

Such special times we are sharing!





This Saturday we move into our "studio apartment which we will enjoy from August 23 through September 17th!  Tineke will have her bed back (she has been most gracious!) and that too will be good for her!  Being bombarded with two people in the house is alot...and moving into the guest bed herself too!

We appreciate her love & hospitality and also recognize that a little space is good too for her and us!  We look forward to settling into a place of our own...for a little while!
