Bubbles

This is our cat named Blossom.

Who says she cannot have her own pet?

so we bought her a fish, named Bubbles.

Now she is fascinated with her fish. 

Marcus...

I have a son too, not just a daughter. See, here is a picture for proof.

He doesn't seem too happy though. He is leaning against my chest.

Marieke?

You may have heard that Julia and I had another Baby. On March 15/09. 8 lbs 2 oz.

Here is a picture of her. She is about 4 weeks old now.

























Well, now we have been thinking about the name. With apologies for any future confusion, we are going with Marieke. Max says it's cool with him.

Still looking for a middle name.

It has all my baby pictures and other early pictures of the Vandermeer family; some of them never made it to the disc Bernard distributed.

Theo update

This is Theodore Jacob at 4 and 6 months. These are some of oma's favorite pictures of him. Currently he is around 25 lbs and 28 inches. We are amazed at how fast and big he is growing. But he is happy and healthy and that is what is most important.

Lucia and Sylvia and Jobien went to Holland! It was very exiting. Here we are visiting with our cousin Arnold Spliethof (sitting beside Jobien) and his kids & grandkids.

Tell me, why did we all move to Canada anyway? Holland is such a nice little country with good possibilities and innovations. Silly Vandermeers! Bernard! It's all your fault, you twit!!! Please post your comments and tell my why we shouldn't all move back there.

Wedding May 1928

M. van der Meer and J. Spliethof are getting married in this picture.

Somewhere Vader must be in this picture, he was 25 years old when this was taken.

Anybody seen Sylvia lately?

Oh the trouble with little sisters:
( I warned her about Oscar's hootch)
Tell her, it took some doing, but the restraining order has been lifted.
She is now welcome again at the Texada Kingdom Hall.
