Last Sunday, we were invited by some Dutch friends to their house for a pool party/BBQ/World Cup Finals party. We were instructed to wear something orange to support The Netherlands- no problem for these Clemson grads! (we even packed our orange Clemson cooler and brought our orange Clemson tailgating chairs)
Erik and Sylvie have an amazing house in Aubiere, complete with a big backyard and a pool! We had a great afternoon swimming and hanging out with friends. After swimming, the boys fired up the grill and we had a BBQ feast!

With all these guys dressed in orange standing around a grill, I almost felt like I was at a Clemson game (except for all of the Dutch, German, and French being spoken!)
Then, it was time for the game. As everyone knows, unfortunately, the Netherlands lost. It was still a great night. Matthew and I are really looking forward to spending some more time with this group of people in a few weeks at Mark and Silke's wedding in the Netherlands!
I hate that this turned out blurry, but Erik's hat was just too funny not to share!
And, would it really be a pool party without grown men having a splash contest???
