Quantum Leap

Helen catches the first snowflakes of the season on her tongue


watching the first snowfall from inside


sisters snuggling

helen staying busy

family picnic in kalamazoo, michigan

jayden makes the sturgis swim team!

graham makes the team too!


nothing says jet lag like opening up Einstein bagels at 5am in Evanston, IL.... we've been up for almost 2 hours already!

alice millar chapel in evanston - where we got married 10 years ago




10 years ago - i never would have guessed we would have 4 beautiful children sitting in front of this chapel :)

i think the final luggage count was 17 pieces! finally landed in the USA!


nothing more entertaining to a 20 month old than a pair of sunglasses and a windowshade on a 9 hour flight

our last supper in Amsterdam - Hard Rock Cafe - 10pm at night!


yes- i'm tired! but it was my idea to eat here










saying goodbye to our car!


saying goodbye to our gardener :(


helen and miss sara (her teacher)




all of our suitacases hidden in the bathroom so they didn't accidentally get loaded on the moving truck

jillian naps in her room for the last time in Holland :( still can't believe she was just a few weeks old when we arrived

eating lunch on the kitchen counter - because her highchair was packed!






jayden shows me his work during an open house at school


graham working on a math problem in Holland


i've been trying to think of how i would describe the way i've been feeling since leaving Holland.... remember that show Quantum Leap? - that pretty much sums it up :) i'm somewhere in between where i came from and where i'm going :) .......

Welcome home, Sara! Can't wait to see some more pics of your new home. Hope the jet lag is gone soon!

Welcome home! :) I can't believe your time in Holland is already up! It seems like just a few months ago you moved there... I hope everything is going well! :)
