Het Kerstfeest van het familie Bouwman (The Bouwman Family Christmas)


As you can see from the "mooi" photo's, we had a very nice "Kerst": Our "kleinste jongen" Maclaren enjoyed our "kerstboom" a lot. Papa shares a "knuffel" with his favoite "meisje". The "twee Bouwman jongens" pose by Grandma and Grandpa's "kerstboom", and the "drie Bouwman kinderen" get ready to open gifts on "Kerstavond".
(Can you tell we've been working hard on speaking "Nederlands" at our house?:-)

You guys think you're SO cool with all that Dutch mumbo jumbo!

Yes--- I must say we are rather multicultural!!!;-)
Perhaps next time we post, Bert can type everything in Portuguese! That would really throw everyone for a loop!
We fit in well here in Eden Prairie, (the birthplace of the "mystery":-)with all our diversity and multiculturalism!!!(Gag!!!)
