Well, We Ended Up in July

In July I had my annual Grand-daughter Tea Party. We decided to have a Dutch theme. Laura's mother was gracious enough to host it at her home. She set a beautiful table with the colors of the Dutch flag. We had open face sandwiches with Gouda Kaas (cheese), Geldegest Worst, (summer sausage), and of course Hagel Slaag, (chocolate sprinkles). My grand-daughters did me proud by showing their American Grandmas and Great Grandmas what to do with the Hagel Slaag.

Emma's mother-in-law, Meriola; and her mother, Marva.

The two Great-Grandmothers, Georgia and Marva.

Unfortunately, my mom, the other Great-Grandmother

went to Indiana to visit her grandchildren there.

We missed her, but she had a good time.

Later in July I watched grandchildren.

I think the pictures speak for themselves.

No fair looking ahead Mommies!

Can you pick your child out by their feet?

I love this picture!

It's Been A While

Keith noticed today that soon it will be a year since I have posted. That is a loooong time. Let's see what I can do to get us caught up.

In May Crimsel graduated from preschool.

Ari had a dance recital in June.

In July we hosted our immediate family Independence Day Festivities. We had a lot of fun, and even had Steven and Melissa from Arizona with us.

Well, that's May, and June, and July in a nutshell.
