{Weekend Snaps}

This weekend was incredible. We had two rare, sunny Amsterdam days in a row!! Here's a bit about what we were up to:

+Friday night date night - we went out for Chinese :)
+Saturday we grabbed a coffee and walked to Museumplein and people watched
+Admired the leaves that have started to fall and the trees changing colors
+Enjoyed a relaxing al fresco lunch while we soaked up the sun
+Finally bought bikes - we're officially Dutchies!
+Tried a new pizza joint (it was yummmy)
+Rode to the windmill brewery for a couple beers (more on that in another post!)
+Counted our blessings as we marveled at the fact that we live in Amsterdam (holy crap)!

    So...I've figured out which company you work for. And I'm jealous. I've been wanting to work for them, and knowing there's opportunities with them overseas makes me want to work there even more! Maybe someday...until then I'm living vicariously through you! :)
