Was a nice day here today. Alex finished her first year dancing on pointe, Thijs made wine for daddy for father's day, and Phoebe won an art contest!
Local leaders are threatening to close the Tervuren swimming pool in September 2007, and a group of concerned citizens is fighting hard to stop it (http://www.zwemtervuren.be). They organized the art contest in an effort to generate support for their cause. The kids helped with the cause too - Alex and Phoebe walked door to door to collect signatures for a petition. They almost collected 16 in one hour! Mommy was so proud.
For the tekening wedstrijd, the kids all made pictures. Phoebe was so surprised to hear she'd actually won. I don't know what she actually drew, but there's a lot of blue watery-looking stuff if that's what you want to see. The prize - an inflatable swimming pool - how appropriate, don't you think? Especially since the decisionmakers are trying to steal the real thing!
