Happy Holidays
from Catherine & Lars
Clockwise from top left, Clara, Charlie, Colette, Liz, and proud grandmother Catherine
Catherine planned to retire in 2025, so in November '24, we downsized to one car, returning this leased fun-machine. She then accepted an offer to work for another year... I have been sans auto since and really miss this beauty 😬
Lars, Riley, and son Lars 🥰
On the 10th of December, Baby Riley arrives in a text-book perfect delivery 🥰
I surprised my grand niece Signe, "Ziggy," by showing up in Paramaribo, Surinam, when she and "Gunilla" arrived there for a three-day visit.
