Water in the backyard

Thursday morning we packed our stuff and travelled the short distance to souther Burgenland to spend a few days with Markus parents and once we arrived Jakob immediately checked out the garden, wandering the lawn, eating some raspberries fresh from the bush and playing in the small paddling pool grandpa organised last minute. Thursday evening we went to see Nikolaus, Michi and Klaus and when Sissi and Andi joined in as well we had some delicious barbecue on the terrace. Jakob was full of energy and went to bed late as he was too excited about pretty much everything.

Is there anything better than playing with water in the garden?

On Friday we hung out again in the garden, met Ines for some shopping in the afternoon and Stefan was part of the organisation committee of the Division U20 Basketball European Championships and so in the evening Markus went to watch the semifinal between Austria and Bulgaria which Austria won. With that victory the team qualified for next year's Division A championship and that marks the biggest success for them. Saturday after lunch, which Jakob yet again was eating with full enthusiasm, we travelled back home to Vienna and our sunshine was sleeping all the way until we reached our destination. In the afternoon he went to buy some potting soil and helped Markus plant the trees he bought for our terrace.

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
