The photo face

Mike got a great shot of a bumblebee, which you can see here:http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikebert4 but while he was taking that photo I got one of him! I love how he can take really great shots with what appears to be ease! I know he constantly thinks about his shot, but I never do, I just snap and go - I like taking photos of Mike - generally he pulls a goofy face! This is his photo face - the "I'm concentrating face". Luckily he's not often got his camera pointed at me, so I've never seen my photo face!

Post Easter Egg Hunt

Daddy and the guys were really good and hid eggs in the garden for all of us (me, Mike, Shelby, Emily and Jessica) and we took ages to find them! (some we didn't find untill they melted!) but after, everyone sat on the grass and ate their chocolate - I snapped these shots of Shelby's new hair and a shot of Emily too!

An Easter Table

Of course I went home for Easter, it is a big deal in America, you have lots of chocolate, and dinner, but you also get Easter Bunny presents and do egg hunts and there are tons of decorations. My mum is really good at decorating, and the table was lovely, she had bought these little chocolate ducks from M and S - we ended up smashing their heads in, but it was so pretty before that!

Wisteria at Home

Now that we are back home, I have mainly been revising, but today was lovely and sunny and Shelby was out on the balcony. The wisteria on the balcony is really in bloom, so I had to grab some photos as the next time I am home, they will probably all be gone!

Tulips

Right as we were leaving we saw some great tulips which were in the colours of the Belgian flag! They were really pretty! I love the pink and white ones too, but I loved that they had made an effort to be so patriotic with flowers!

Another park in Brussels

We had intentions to go and see the royal greenhouses, but we never really found our way, and because of time limitations, went to another park again. April is a great month for flowers, and they were all in bloom and with lovely colours!

The Atomium

The Atomium is a massive structure which was built for the World Fair way back when, and I believe it is to represent the man who discovered the Atom (who maybe was Belgian?) Either way, it is a pretty impressive feat, and you can actually go up and visit inside the spheres. We didn't do that, but got some great photos of it!
