For the first time all five of us including Dallas went on vacation together. We drowe to Friesland, located in the North of Holland, it's a very popular vacation destination for the Dutch and Germans. It's a 1 1/2 h drive from where we live, but you really feel like you are far away from home. The advantage of living in a small country :)

We stayed on a small island with only one house and a boat house on it. Opa has just bought a new boat which he had brought to the island. Opa has been searching for 2 years to find the right boat that would be suitable for himself and his grandchildren. We are all very happy he has finally found it, but of course Opa is the most happy.

Oscar got very nice nintje books. Thank you Alexander and Baukje

Diederik got a really fun mouse and Oscar got a very nice wooden knight.

Since his birthday was on a Monday we celebrated it small on the actual birthday and the weekend after we had a party for him.

He didn't want to sleep all day and 5 minutes before the first guest arrived he couldn't keep his eyes open. When he finally woke up he had a great time opening all his nice presents.
