day three

first of all, i know they lost.  but it was still a fun day.  an orange day.  you know what they say..."if you ain't dutch, you ain't much".  and i'm not dutch, but i married one.  so that counts, right?

they comforted each other through the tense moments and ate orange food in solidarity with their countrymen.

and even though they lost, she was able to pull herself together to hear a good story.

in other news, our dear friend john was here visiting from india this past week.  he hosted my team on our visit in 2004.  he had to leave his 9 month old grandson at home, so he dubbed simon an appropriate stand-in for the time being.
