Visit from the De Jong family from Colorado

 

After having visited the De Jongs 3 years in a row for Thanksgiving in Colorado, it was their turn to come out to California.

They stayed with us 5 days.

The local playground, Tina, Anna & Melinda                             All 3 girls loved playing piano, Thea (back), Tina & Anna

Anna very much liked the bed Melinda had made for Tina in the study

On a drizzly day we went to Happy Hollow in San Jose.                                    Anna quickly became a Merry-go-round addict.

Thanksgiving dinner. Mmmm, Melinda’s “paper bag turkey” was cooked to perfection (and did not catch fire). Cheers! From left to right:

Thea, Maria, Melinda, Martin, Ted, Anna, Jane (Alex behind the camera, thanks!)

The string puppet was a big hit.

Alex was a popular reader.                                                                               No wonder, with such fine literature!

A few weeks earlier: Halloween. Anna dressed up as…. A ladybug.
