Our first attempt at Blogging

So after reading blogs from friends over the years I thought I would be good to start one so that family ( seeing that they are thousands of miles away) and friends everywhere could keep up with our lives here in the States. Hopefully Ouma, Oupa , grandpa and all the ooms and tannies can see him grow up through reading the blog

It is Monday morning and Arthur is still sleeping. We had quite the exciting weekend. On Saturday we had an international dinner at our house and we had friends from Mexico ( Marisela and Jose with their 3 kids- Michelle, Roderigo and Meso) and friends from India and Sri Lanka ( Jude and Nalini ) Unfortunately Roshni (Jude and Nalini's 6 month old daughter) couldnt make it. She is getting ready for surgery in 10 days time and she needs to rest out for the big surgery and stayed with grandma and grandpa.( Please pray for her and also her parents for good surgery and a quick and favorable recovery) We had food from South Africa, Mexico, Sri Lanka, India and America. I made vetkoeke, kerrie sosaties and off course Malva pudding.

Good food, wine and friends are always a recipe for a good time. We had such a good time that I didn't take a lot of pictures but here are a few.

This is Arthur, Michelle and Rodrigo playing golf in the kitchen.

Deon busy "braai" ing.

Deon had to work the whole Sunday and me and Arthur went to Sunday school and then church. The rest of the day we just hanged out with Roscoe . The weather was rainy so we all had to stay inside. We did attempt a walk in the afternoon with the stroller, Arthur and the dog but only went round the block.
Today we are off to the YMCA for cardio jam and Arthur is going to daycare there. ( Arthur loves playing with the other kids )

Talk soon!!!
