Survived some stormy weather...5 days without power, but 5 days with generous help from friends

Camryn took cover when Dad picked up the chainsaw!

All the Way from Delft...

Over Columbus Day weekend, our dear friends Elena & Ko came to visit us in Connecticut. We enjoyed Clyde's Cider Mill, Mystic Seaport, & the Cliff Walk in Newport, Rhode Island. It was AWESOME to spend time with them. We introduced them to pumpkin carving- Halloween is not a Dutch celebration.

9 Months...

Camryn at 9 months- constantly in motion and getting into EVERYTHING!

Camryn hit the 8 month mark in September. She accompanied me on a trip to the Seattle, Washington area to visit my long time friend and former college roommate, Amy Molen (Fowers). Amy and Rick's daughters are Sophie (2 1/2) and Mazie (10 weeks). Amy & I hope that Mazie and Camryn will be roommates in the future!

Lea, Amy, & Sara (West Seattle pals since 2001)

We aren't sure why...but Camryn goes berserk for whoopee cushions.
