Elisabeth and Kate were very disappointed that their flight was postponed. The girls moped about the apartment this morning - finally I got them outside after lunch. We went to Parc de Woluwe to jump rope and play soccer. Elisabeth was proud to demonstrate jumping rope for Kate. Kate wasn't interested - she wanted to eat her afternoon snack, pick a posy of flowers for her grandparents and run (Kate loves to run and run fast!).
After the park, we stopped at the post office and mailed their watercolor paintings of Spain to Rich's parents. Elisabeth painted the the Mesquite cathedral in Cordoba. Glad that we bought the watercolors with us in August - thanks to John and Polly for Elisabeth's art kit!
At 5pm we met Rich at Pizza Hut for dinner (it is just where we go every Friday for dinner in Brussels - nothing else opens until 6 or 7pm!) before bringing them home in our rented minivan for bath/bedtime stories. They loved the minivan ride!
Elisabeth and Kate were giggling and chatting tonight. They were up late picking out outfits to wear to the airport. The girls picked out their hot pink dresses with white polka dots and white cardigans. No new Easter dresses this year - Rich and I did not have the chance to shop at Costco for their annual Lilly Pulitzer dresses. At bedtime, Elisabeth and Kate were cuddling with their bears, excited to see their grandparents. A late night for us!
