Saturday night we had some friends over for dinner. Joel and Nina are from Vermont and living in Holland while Joel is doing a PhD. They have 2 little girls, Addison and Sadie. Max and Addie are the same age and love to play together. We enjoyed a very American meal of hamburgers on the grill with potato salad, fruit salad and chips. You'll have to trust me when I tell you that you could only serve this meal to fellow Americans. I have found this out the hard way. Watching Dutch people eat a hamburger with a fork and knife, and being told chips are only for parties, not meals.
On Sunday, Bas and Max constructed a beach tent in the kitchen (this is what you need to do in the summer in this country due to it being 57 degrees and raining). Max loved it and wanted to take his nap in it. Unfortunately, I had to be the party pooper on this.
In the afternoon we headed to Bas's parents to celebrate with them.
And no, I didn't get Bas anything from Max for Father's Day. Max is going to buy him a new video camera in America later this summer.
