My Favourite People

I'm posting these photos for my German and Greek friends and relatives who wouldn't otherwise see them.

My Granddaughter Elliotte...

There is a story behind this colorful dress. You all remember Sophia our neighbour in Greece? She wore this dress when she was a little child more than 25 years ago. When we left Athens in October we were presented with this dress for Elliotte to wear. She looks really cute in it.

Ms. Bee, they are indeed handsome and nice young men to boot.
Chrysalis, if all goes well I'll really be smiling and without glasses by the end of the month. Fingers crossed that it will be so...

What a beautiful family you have, Rositta.

And that glass tile in the last photo is to die for! I need to take off my house hunting hat for a bit.

Great pictures! It was great to have you here for Christmas! The Chinook was in full force today and all I could think of was how I wished it had come while you were still here!

Ah yes Rudee, my son has a kitchen to die for. I think it's the size of the whole main floor of my house. He built it himself so he got exactly what he wanted...

There's a lot of your mother AND you in your granddaughter, as least that's what I see. And Cass looks like a lovable lad. Waiting to see his hat. :)

swentlishexpat, Elliotte loves having her picture taken, she really knows how to pose.
Kat, you would know, you've seen me. Cass is coming Thursday and his hat is waiting for him.
