reunited

Last night we picked up Oma Marianne and uncle Maarten from the airport, a happy and emotional reunion for the Koot family! It's been a year since the kids saw them and for days they have been close to exploding with excitement at the prospect of being able to give them a big hug. Lara and Julia get to share their room with our guests, which they are tickled pink over, and the boys get to have new playmates in the morning. Their travels went well, with the worst part probably being the lack of legroom for tall uncle Maarten in the second part of the trip.
We're excited to be able to spend the Holidays with them... December is going to be extra special this year!
