MLK day at Lake Balboa!

We enjoyed a holiday (Martin Luther King day) and summer-like temperatures of 27 degrees Celsius today! I was not expecting this heat! Luckily, the trees around Lake Balboa provided some shade and a little breeze. Lily went biking with her twin friends Nicky and Valentina, while mommies Jenny and I were catching up on what has been going on in our lives. Our 3 monkeys had a great time! We really try to spend as much time together as we can, as the Ruhland family is moving back to Germany in April, boo-hooh!!! We will miss them a lot!!!

"Mommy, we are SHARING!" (at Millie's where we had lunch)
Biking around Lake Balboa
An awesome bike path!
Three friends!
Can you tell purple+pink are Lily's favorite colors?

A tree! Must climb it!!!

Swinging like a monkey!
More climbing!

Getting into position...

... to say "whoo whoo whoo, we are monkeys!"
Lily showing off how "strong" she is... riding Nicky on the back of her bicycle! (At night she confessed to me that that was too hard, that it was too hot and that she will never do that again!!!)

Chasing little ducks...

Come here, duckies!
We had a lovely day. Thx, Jenny, Valentina and Nicky!

At the Apple store

Ongelooflijk hoe snel kinderen weg zijn met een iPad. Zelfs Ennio!!! Het was groot concert toen we weg gingen. Ik moest hem echt van de tafel sleuren! Amai, zeg!
