Visit with friends

Today we had a very busy day. We went to the pool in the afternoon since it was a beautiful sunny day. The kids had a great time (as did we) and Sofia did a great job with her swimming. We left the pool at 2:30 so that we would have enough time to get home, shower, change, make a salad and dessert and be at the bus for 3:55 to go out to our friends house out of town. Our friends recently finished building a house just outside of Prague and this is the first time we had been to their house. They met us at the bus stop and we walked to their house. Their house was beautiful. I'm sure we will all be longing for a house and yard for the next few weeks. The kids loved playing in the yard. The sprinkler was set up and the kids just had some good old fashion sprinkler fun. We didn't have swim suits so the girls just played in the underwear and eventually were just naked. This is one of the things I love about living here is that kids can just be kids. They had a blast and it was fun to see there complete care-free play. At dinner, our friends had a small kiddie picnic table that the kids ate it in the middle of the yard. This was pure heaven for the girls. The kids also loved seeing all the airplanes that went by. Our friends live out towards the airport so there are a lot of planes that go by but surprisingly the noise is not loud. I did notice the airplanes but not because they were loud but becuase every time one went by either Ali or Sofia (and sometimes both) would yell, "airplane, airplane...look look." Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my camera today so I can't show you how much fun we all had. We finally had to leave since the girls were exhausted. We caught the bus home and Jason and I carried the sleeping girls home and put them in bed. Another great day had by all!
