An old game and a new baby






June 26, 2008

This morning we taught the kids how to play petanque (similar to bocce balls, but you play with metal balls on a court of pea gravel). Memo used to play quite a bit when he was younger, but I think he only pulls the weeds in the court when he has visitors now. Still, he whipped me, and then with Alex on his team and Zac on mine, they beat us even worse. I don’t think the kids really understand the rules, but they had fun anyway.

This afternoon Noemi and baby Dania came home from the hospital so we drove over to Yverdon to visit the city and lake a little and to see the new baby. Everyone is doing well, and the baby is way cute. Katie wanted to hold the baby the whole time so whenever anyone else held the baby, Katie sat on their lap and held Dania with them.

I just realized that I haven’t gotten any new pictures of Fabio because I usually take pictures when we go out someplace, and we hung out with him mostly at the house. In real time, he’s already left for France, but I’ll get some pictures of him at the wedding.
