Family = Wonderful

So glad to have these photos to remind us of a wonderful visit a few short months ago.  
I'm amazed that Time seemed almost to have stood still between this, 
and our past visit in Denmark, back in the '70's!  That's family. --Missing you all!
 
 Don't forget to admire (Jesse's exchange-partner from Düren; my recent intern) Julia's triumphant Schwarzwälderkirschtorte!
  
Finally, after 7 years, here's Julia's family together with ours--including brother, Jan (Lyle's Exchange-partner!); which helps explain how we have become one big happy family.

We're sure to keep snapping photos of these "twin cousins" 
(Mikayla (1 month) and Isabel (5 months) old here). 
 

A few more recent family favorites, including Uncles Lyle and Jesse
and two more shots from Ruth and Ken's 60th, 
including one of many special moments with Mom (here with John).
