Good Bye 2011

2011 has been a very eventful year for our family; some of it not so great, but mostly wonderful. But all is eclipsed by the safe arrival of our first grandson, Samuel. Here are a few photos of Christmas 2011, including Adelaide in her new dress and Vivi in a gently used dress that was in Creative Needle several years ago.

Meredith, Scott and Samuel.

Mama and Baby

Scott's stepmother meets her grandbaby for the first time. Her name is Debbie. We have decided that she will be "Honey" to baby Samuel. Adelaide calls her Honey and Scott's Dad, "Honey's husband".

The girlie girls...Vivi looking very mischievous!

Here is the Strandberg Family in their matching nighties and PJ bottoms. Santa, played by big Sam, brought these on Christmas Eve afternoon. (A Swedish tradition)

And here are the pajamas that Santa brought Christmas morning for the American Girl Doll Twins (Both boys, both named Baby Samuel)

And two overall outfits.

I will leave you with a picture of my very cute son in law with Baby Samuel, mixing Bloody Marys on Christmas morning.

Happy New Year to all!
