Easter morn 2007

(Cross-posted from Jacob's Blog.)


Nothing is more pleasant for grandparents than to talk to their grandkids on Easter. It is not like Christmas, where it is the act of giving, but with Easter it is the rebirth of new life.

Joanna, Tony, Samu and Daniel decided to drive down from Newcastle to Billinghay in Lincolnshire. After spending the Saturday there, they went on to Birmingham to meet up with brother Jaakko and friend Joy. Chris could not accompany Susanna and Asha and the others as he was practicing for a recital.

However, before they left Billinghay, Susanna put up some wonderful photos and also two videos of hers which she has uploaded to UTube.

Instead of linking to them, I thought I would post one of them on my blogs as not many go across regularly to Susanna's blog. But visiting her blog is well worthwhile as she is also a fits and starts blogger like me, and usually our fits and starts come in different bursts!

Here is the first of the videos, which was entitled "Hello Grandpa and Grandma":



To see more videos and pictures, do go over to Susanna's Billinghay Blog where there are great pictures of the families and, hopefully, soon after Birmingham, we should also have pictures of Jaakko and Joy.

They are at the moment enjoying a Chinese buffet in the city that all of them know well from the 80s and 90s.
