At 05:00h in the morning we heard the local music band play Silent Night. We started the day we a Christmas breakfast and in the afternoon we did our yearly "sjoel" competition with the both grandma's. YES I finally won the game with a highscore of 109 points:). Of course we had to draw "lootjes" and as previous years I had Maurice (and mostly Eri). After that we enjoyed our Christmas dinner, see pictures below.










Christmas at home

After a very busy month we finally had some time to set up our Christmas tree on december 20th. As many other people we also have a "fake"tree but it looks really nice.
For the first time we bought each other some Christmas presents. I gave Nicole a new watch of "Fossil S+Ark" and I got a Nikons SB-600 external speelight for my digital SRL.

We hired some bicycles and went cycling in the centre of Brussels. I must say it was a great weekend and the weather was very nice, lots of sunshine:).
