As you can see, we were having a lot of fun at the Barn Apero party on Friday evening. I've always said how lucky I am to have landed in this place. Many people back in the states questioned my decision to stay here full time. "You're so social Laury, what are you going to do in that tiny village?" I've teased how it took a village to get me to Germany at the end of last year. For these recent weekend events, I dubbed my gang "Equipe Laury". I stood beside the barn in front of this group on Friday night, with tears in my eyes and a huge smile on my face. I have never felt more welcomed, loved, and a member of a community. Any ideas what my equipe and village people did to bring those tears to my eyes and smile to my face?

You guys are very very close-yes to the pieces of paper Evelyn and better than Laury's farm Arabella-and all in French to boot!

I think I know some of what Team Laury accomplished on Friday night, but I'm anxious to hear what else these folks did for you! Does it have to do with those pieces of paper they're holding in their hands??

no idea, waiting with excitement for continuation ! but it's funny that similar comments came when Bodil (my wife) and I bought our farm house, and our friends told us that we would miss cafés, social life etc. etc. but our very tiny village, 9-10 houses/farms, are really social, not in a tight sense, but in a long-lasting sense !, and we are never missing anything there ! enjoy Sunday and looking forward to read more tomorrow !
