Happy Birthday Grammie

Happy birthday to my tulip-icious mother-in-law today!

Back in October, we brought tons of tulip bulbs to the US to give to friends and family all across the country.  Many of them planted the bulbs last fall, and it has been fun to get pictures from all over the States showing them blooming!!  I feel like we've given new meaning to the Dutch-American friendship treaty!

Here's D and the kids planting them last fall at Grammie's house.


And voila!  A springtime connection with loves ones thousands of miles away.



When Grammie sent us messages with pictures of hers blooming, she titled her emails "family love" and "pure happiness."  I think that certainly says it all!  Happy birthday Grammie. We love you and are so happy you and your "little boy" get to share this birthday together--in person!!
