A FEW MORE HOLLAND PICTURES

One of our very favorite pictures from Holland

Kate...such a cutie

Last day we had our Easter Egg Hunt
After several stiches, our brave little Ashley after getting her finger caught in a heavly door hinge.
It took three trips to the doctor before all the stitches were out.

Beautiful Tulips...April & May are great times to enjoy Holland and their flowers.

HEY.....Ruth, Ashley and Grandpa enjoy a rest on some Hay.

Bikes are everywhere...the most popular mode of transportation.

Dad's Birthday

One of our favorites too, Matt....he will do about anything for his grandkids.


Playing dart guns with his boys
Littel Marvin with his dad, mom, and brother Gene




THANKS FAMILY FOR ALL THE PHONE CALLS, SONGS, GOOD WISHES....



Thanks Lisa, Dan, John, Marrianne and grandkids for the great dinner celebration for grandpa's birthday. We had delicious barbequed chicken, green jello salad, green lettace salad, and a wonderful apple dessert...hmmmm was all sooooo good!





When is Brooke going to get her front teeth?
And when is Madison going to stop growing?
After good food it was time to open presents...


Sorry pictures are so small...phone camera.

AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE "MEMORIES" sent by internet...he loved each one of them.
OK Joe...here's the 'orange coat' picture


THANK YOU STEVEN for the great song and you had great back up singing. No, really, thank you all for the wonderful song and happy birthday messages.

Great singing and thank you again for a fun Holland vacation. See you in October!

In honor of Marvin's birthday, Annika had to call and tell grandpa this joke that was on her DORA popcycle stick:
Why didn't they tell the joke to the window?
I don't know, why?
Because they were afraid that the window would CRACK-UP
Oh...and good singing too, Marylyn. Dad said all those Choir practices really did pay off.
