Week 1

It's kind of hard to believe we have been here for a week.  It feels like it has flown by! This week brought a lot of firsts with it including...first time driving in Belgium, first time attempting to speak french, first time entertaining (had Rob's new co-worker over for dinner last night...and when I say over I mean across the hall in the hotel), first chocolate purchase, first wine purchase, first Belgian beer purchase.  We have spent a ton of time driving around and looking at different areas to possibly live.  We think we have found our house but its not final so I don't want to get too excited.  The roads are beautiful so we have enjoyed the views.  The Belgians don't mess around with their yards, I don't know who the "Joneses'" are but they have set the bar high! We are planning to head to Brussels this weekend for the Flower Carpet Festival.  And of course eat pom frites and waffles.
