it's been 40 years....

40 years ago in July, our Opa & Oma (with Uncle Art & Uncle Abe) traveled by boat with all their belongings from Holland & moved to America. It was a big step...and God richly blessed them for all their hard work, generosity, & faithfulness. So, we celebrated with Oma...the 40th Anniversary of "coming to America."
