Hi everyone!

As most of you know, Ray has accepted a 2-year assignment with Toyota's European Headquarters in Brussels, Belgium. For those of you who do not know, Belgium is located next to France, Germany and the Netherlands. The home of NATO and the European Union, it is considered the "gateway to Europe" with its easy access to many European countries. (Hint, hint--good excuse to come and visit!)

Ray started his new position in February, 2008. The girls and I arrived here in late March. We are living just outside the city of Brussels in the commune of Tervuren, Belgium.

Although we are sad to temporarily leave our family and friends, we are excited for this adventure. What an opportunity to leave our tiny box and experience life outside of America!

The Girls Arrive in BRU



The Shinozaki girls have arrived safely at Brussels International Airport early on Saturday morning. Along with Grandpa and eight check-in bags, the girls were re-united with daddy and were introduced to their new home in Tervuren. DS and PS were happy to see all of their toys, books and other belongings that were packed up from our home back in January.

The Belgium winter has been pretty mild since I have been here. But then, as luck would have it, it snows on the day of their arrival...!!!

What better way to start our adventure than with something new?
