It's been a week today since we're back from vacation and a lot of things have happened.
I've been back to the office last Friday to relieve T. who needed a break after i had been gone for 3 weeks.
The kittens are getting an attitude (they refuse the dry food we give them and start whining for the beef in sauce stuff)
Jamie is gone.
Austin arrived.
We've got an alarm installed and 4 smoke alerts.

And the kids and I have been doing fun stuff from their "Youth vacation passport"
This is some sort of booklet given to schoolchildren with all sorts of attractions or simply things to see and do and which gives a considerable discount for the kids involved.

Yesterday we went to museum De Dubbelde Palmboom in Delfshaven where they had to do some sort of treasure hunt and today i went to the Euromast (check Rotterdamdailyphoto tomorrow!). There was a contest of kids building something with Knex and this afternoon Timo won the first (and only) prize!
She said she had looked specifically towards creativity and originality and his electricymaker (he had told her a whole story, which didn't surprised me actually; everyone who knows Timo knows he has a huge imagination and can get carried away easily) won.
I was super trooper proud!
