Happy 2010 (in pictures!)

In good ol' Dutch fashion, the Durgeats rung in 2010!! 4th year running, we went to Baarn, Netherlands to spend NYE with the family... 12 people crammed tight into a 3 bedroom townhome... food, wine, beer, fireworks... Ahh... nothing like fireworks with drunk people!

There was happiness. There was joy. There was love in the air... There was a seaside walk, and a stop for hot chocolate. There were blankets and pillows, and Nintendo DS!

I've got two eves left to ring in like this before we leave Europe! :( Anyway... enjoy the pictures :)

The girls feeding the poor, frozen duckies!

Sliding in for a bite...
No Ava, you CAN'T play on the ice!
I thought this one was pretty :)
They got thirsty and left...
Hilde and Ava, stayin' warm in the sun!
She's such a movie star :P
Love is all around
Check out this homeless kid we found...
