Castle drama + New pictures of the boys!

Well, life surely is ironic; we have been to four countries and six hotels so far, and our first bad experience has been at a castle! We took off for the country of Luxembourg on Friday afternoon. None of us had been to this tiny country before, the drive was a reasonable three hours, and well, why not? It was a legitimate castle, the grounds were unbelievably gorgeous, and the food ended up being spectacular. The problems were with our room being shockingly uncomfortable (wicker furniture, seriously?!), and staff that clearly didn't like us for whatever reason (which is crap - we are totally likeable people!). So we knew we would be jumping ship early. My R&R weekend in the country was changed to a 5 start hotel in Luxembourg City. Tis life, and undoubtedly we could have way worse problems. Well, like I said the grounds were stunning so I attempted some pictures of the boys. Hank just wanted to run and I support him getting out energy appropriately so I wasn't going to make him stop and pose (assuming he would anyways).

Look how big baby Theo is getting:
 

 
 


Hank is so much fun; especially when he can just be wild, free, and explore:


 


Of course nothing beats my sweet boys together in a photo:
(although it is hard work that rarely yields great results ;)

 
 
 
So we stay in Luxembourg City for tonight and then we are heading to the Netherlands. This will be our first time in Holland since our weekend is Amsterdam (which is funny since B works in Holland the whole time we are here). Looking forward to staying in a town we stayed in last year, since this makes my adventures out solo with the boys so much easier. So a week in a small town in the Netherlands and then next weekend we will be in Cologne, Germany.
No castle stays though ;)
 
thanks for reading,
Amanda
