Firstly, Congratulations to my sister who announced on her birthday (today) that she is pregnant with her first baby. It will be the first grandchild for my parents. Here is a picture from her scan (I am assuming that is the head to the left):
Next, congratulations to my Oma and Opa who celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on the weekend. The boy and I sent a slide for a power point presentation with a little message (in Dutch!) and a few photos from us. Apparently their were letters from the Govenor General, the Queen, the Dutch Ambassador.... etc, etc. Pretty impressive if you ask me! I missed out on sampling some of this amazing-looking cake:
Last but not least, congratulations to my cousin who recently announced her engagement to her lovely boyfriend. I wish them all the best and I look forward to seeing them on while they are on their honeymoon on this side of the world later in the year.
This is the boy and I, with our champagne, celebrating all this good news:
It is difficult and a bit sad that I am so far away from all these happy events and cannot be involved but I am enjoying the photos that I am being sent and hearing about all these wonderful occassions.
