Grandpa and Grandma Fisher are coming :) and going :(

The first week in September, Grandpa Frank and Grandma Judy Fisher came to visit. They arrived Sunday morning and instead of being totally wiped out from their journey they were ready to get moving. We decided on Brugge and off we went. (What troopers!)

The train ride went by quickly and soon we were at our destination. We strolled the streets of Brugge and our first stop was the Church of our Lady to see Michelangelo's 'Madonna and Child.'

We showed Frank and Judy our favorite Brugge spots and then enjoyed dinner in the main square. Dinner apparently didn't fill us, so we stopped to get some traditional Belgium Waffles for the train ride home.

The next morning the kids went to school and Frank and Judy slept. (Finally) Brent took the afternoon off and we enjoyed our stroll around Leuven. We enjoyed a late lunch and then I needed to get the children from school. Frank is an architect by profession, but also a wonderful artist. While I was gone with the children, he took out his painting supplies and painted a beautiful picture of the Grote Markt as seen from the Stadhuis. What talent.

We had a great time with Frank and Judy. Thanks for the visit. Next time stay longer.
