Back at the game

Last summer, up at Lucky Peak reservoir, Ben hurt his ribs and wasn't able to play rugby for awhile. But since about a week or three, he's back at the game and loving it.
Here are some pictures of the game of Sunday November 4th. They didn't win (at all), but you wouldn't be able to tell from the pictures.





Mr. Brown, the teacher

For a couple of weeks now, Ben has been teaching Biology at the Cals College (high school) in our hometown of Nieuwegein.

So far, the students absolutely love him. Hopefully taht won't change now that they had their first test last Friday ;-) Luckily most of them did really well.

Here's a picture of Ben grading the tests. Doesn't he look all teachered-up?!

Halloween

As some of you might know, people don't celebrate Halloween in the Netherlands. But that didn't stop us! Our good friends Michiel and Eline came over for pumpkin carving and scary movies. And although the pumpkins weren't nearly as big as what Ben is used too, they still turned out really good.
