      Your twin grandsons are so adorable! (Their outfits too!) ... My twin boys were born in November also but 50 years ago ! We are having a 50th birthday party for them this Thanksgiving Day. We now have 9 grandchildren.

        @Jennifer M: It's nice for them to be close in age. It makes for a close knit family .. even when they grow up. We also have a great grand daughter 17 months old and her little brother is due in January. Our oldest grandson (26) has the baby girl. Our oldest grand daughter just got married in July.

        @Knit'n in Michigan: You are very lucky having great grand children. My mother who is 92 has 16. Our oldest granddaughter has just turned 14, so we have 14, 13, the 4 10 year olds, 6 , 3, the twins who are about to turn 1 and Mahli who is 9 weeks. So it will be a while before we have great grand children.

        @Jennifer M: Wow 16 great grandchildren! Good for her! It seems time goes by so quickly. Before you know it your 14 and 13 year old will be dating. High school flies by! Nice spacing on the ages. They will always have someone to pal around with.

        Goodmorning Michelle, we had a lovely weekend thankyou. It was nice to catch up with our friends and we were lucky it only rained over night and on Tuesday morning when we were coming home. Did you go anywhere? I did a little bit of knitting but not much.

        @Jennifer M: I was hoping you managed to catch the ferry and see them. 😊Yes we had a lovely day trip and then Monday Michael went motorbike riding and yes I had another clean out of my craft room, I went through all my wool again and have another 2 bags for my knitting group. It's funny how I hate parting with my wool but I am being brave and passing some of it on.lol. 😏I have been chatting to some of my friends and it's like everyone's coming out of hibernation and starting to organise catch up etc which is nice.😊

        @Michelle M: I am glad you had a nice weekend. I was hesitant to go over on the ferry but they are limiting the number of people. Though some people ignore the sit here stickers and sit where ever they like. We are still mostly staying at home.

        @Michelle M: I have been avoiding the shopping centres. I have been having my shopping delivered it is a pain though because sometimes they substitute things you don't want.

        @Jennifer M: well I think that's a good idea for you Jennifer it's not worth the risk just for groceries.oh that would annoy me them just substituting things, I would rather they just refunded me rather than sending me something I don't want.😠well we have eight confirmed new cases and one of them was at the protests so now we have to wait and see if there are more. 🤔

        Thank you Michelle. They had solids today for the first time Zian liked it but Akom wasn't impressed. We stayed home for the weekend we are still being very careful. So many people aren't social distancing.

        @Jennifer M: thank you for the gorgeous photos Jennifer, they were so cute seeing the expressions on their faces.😊Does Rochelle print out the photos, I worry that we have all these photos on our phones and what if we lose them. Remember the old days we used to take pictures then when we run out of film we took it into the chemist for them to be developed.😊😊

        @Michelle M: I know what you mean she prints a few photos but not many it is a worry I don't know if she saves them somwhere. We went to the UK in 2017 and when we were just about at the end of the trip we lost all our photos the card in the camera became corupt. We sent it away but nobody could get the photos off it.

        Thanks Denise it is lovely to see them in the things you knit. Rochelle just sent me photos of the boys in their little jumpers I did. Can't wait to see them in their grandpa cardigans, I am hoping to have the second one finished when I see them on Friday.
