You might have noticed that we have a new Grand...his name is Jonas and he is from Belgium, he is spending the year here with Andy, Jen and Adam...he is a delight. He told me that in Belgium you spend Christmas with your Grandparents...it is a bit different for him since his Grandfather died.
He is very tall and thin and speaks French but his English has improved since he got here. He is a tad camera shy...but was a good sport! We taught him how to play spoons! A fairly wild game was played!

Miss Paige was in Florida enjoying sunshine and deep sea fishing, we missed her.
These children light up our lives.

What big Grands you have! How wonderful to share the holidays with family.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you got to spend time with your grandchildren. Merry Christmas to you and Far Guy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWonderful that they celebrated Christmas with you. Merry Christmas Eve!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful grands, and a visitor who seems to fit right in. Maddie is growing more round as she goes towards her second baby's birth. When is it expected? :-)

DeleteI am sure you had a wonderful time with this crew! How fun to explore the celebrations of another country.
ReplyDeleteJonas seems to fit right in--which is good. He must miss his family over the holidays. Everyone looks great. Exciting to have another grandchild, too!! Won't be long. Merry Christmas! :)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteIt's great that the grandchildren come back for a celebration.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have most of your Grandchildren with you for Christmas plus an "extra". I miss the days when we had a houseful of foreign exchange students for most holidays.
ReplyDeleteWishing you and Far Guy a wonderful Christmas Eve!
Blessings,
Betsy
What a wonderful group of grands! It's geat to see them again.

Merry Christmas! All the best to you and your family in 2020.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! I love that you play Spoons with the Grands. It is a wild and fun game.
ReplyDeleteWonderful to have your grandchildren with you.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that Jonas can spend Christmas with family, even if it's not HIS family. I'm sure he loves being part of the fun. ( Spoons is a hilarious and wild game, isn't it!!)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and Far Guy and all the best in the new year.
I would say Jonas lucked out in being placed with such a great extended American family.
ReplyDeleteAwww that is so super. Merry Christmas you guys and here's praying for a new lung in 2020 and health and happiness all around!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet to have time with (almost) all the grands! And fun to have a special addition to the grands this year with Jonas. Have a wonderful Christmas.
ReplyDeleteLovely you were able to have so many of them with you to celebrate. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWe will see our little grands on Thursday. Your grands are wonderful.
