Drinking a toast for Jakob's 1st Birthday! You guessed it, Jakob
was none the wiser!!!
Yesterday Roger and I were up bright and early to catch 3 trains to Solothurn. (Sometimes we spend a lot of time waiting!!). We were visiting Fritz, Ilona, Anna and Jakob. As you will see by the photo's, we are very much part of the family and are included in all the family activities. It really is very special. Whilst there Roger was able to pack up the book shelves as they are on the move again, this time back to Hockwald back near Basel. I took Jakob for a lovely long walk along the river. It was about 2C but the sun was shining and there was no breeze. Jakob slept the whole time, which wasn't much fun for me! I was away 2 hours and the family was starting to worry where I had got to!
The cutest little first Birthday candle holder. Jakob really
wanted to get his hands on it!
Gotta love those glasses! He almost succeeded in pulling them off my face! (One of my pet hates has been having my glasses touched or smudged, just ask my kids!!).
We eventually left for home on the 6.01pm train (and arrived home at 9.20pm). It was a long but happy day. A bit sad that we won't be visiting the lovely town of Solothurn in Switzerland again any time soon, thought I did say to Rog we must visit in summer and do a nice walk/picnic along the river. It really is quite beautiful with the white swans and ducks all along the way.

Isn't he a cutie!! And I think you should book that date in for a picnic now... or you'll be too busy when summer comes around ;)
Big Hugs xo
PS Hope you'll be a proud of your "real" grandchildren :P
he is precious.
That's an interesting little cart he's riding.
He's one adorable little fellow! I don't like my glasses touched either...I can't see very well and when they are disturbed it's even worse!
