The 2 mothers and brother in law came as well but were put to work so no pictures were taken. It's ok. We understand. We will have to come for a visit so we can be on your blog space!!
you could put little stick figures with pictures of their heads attached or something huh wen!? :)
Hey, just curious about the "Oom and Tante". I have some Dutch friends and I know they use those terms too, what background is your family?
My families are both 100% dutch. However, Tante and Oom are Indonesian so I am not sure of the connection. :)
I just saw these comments today -
Tante and Oom are Indonesian for Aunt and Uncle but come from Dutch as they were under various rulers there, including Dutch rule, until they became independent!
By the way Wen, have you heard that in our family tho we say we are 100% french there is a story that somewhere in there we have some Jewish blood, but noone has told, is telling, or still knows the story -has me curious tho!
Gosh why did i say 100% French -instead of Dutch ...maybe thinking of the movie French kiss...or maybe wishful thinking? would i really rather be French than Dutch...hmmm toughie!
xo Tante Jan

Amy, we went to see my cousin Justin pitch AGAINST the Iowa Cubs. A kid behind JB dropped his hotdog on him and ketchup got all over. His family bought JB a new shirt to wear at the game!
