Family in Sweden

This is Svea.
She is 90 years old....she is Jeff's Great Aunt. She was married to Jeff's Dad's Mother's Brother, Olle (he died many years ago). She lives in Sweden.
This is Bosse.
He also lives in Sweden. To Jeff he is a cousin once removed. He is one of Jeff's Dad's cousins.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These are pictures and information that we received via email from Rachel. She is another of Jeff's cousins once removed. Rachel is the daughter of one of Jeff's Dad's Mother's Sister. She lives in Stockholm, Sweden. We met her and her husband, Lars, last year when they were here for a visit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think it is amazing how much blood family Jeff probably still has in Sweden and would love to go and visit and stay with Rachel and learn more about that side of Jeremy's family. It would be cool information for Jeremy to have....now if I can just win the lottery and figure out a way to take the family to Sweden!!!! We have a place to stay and family to visit!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eva was Jeff's Grandma. She was the mother of Roger...Jeff's dad. She was born in Sweden and came to the united states where she spent the rest of her life. Eva had siblings as well and they all stayed in Sweden so all the family of Eva's siblings are still there. I am sure that there is family of Eva's husband...Jeff's grandpa Berggren...Roger's dad....somewhere too...but I don't know where to start to find out more about them. Jeff never knew his grandpa Berggren as he died at a young age when Roger was only about 15.

Crazy Hair and Crazy Dress!

Jeremy really needed a haircut so I put "jello", as he calls it, in his hair to make it look really crazy! Then we got it cut the next day!
Here, Jeremy is reading a book about airplanes that he got from Grandpa Roger while waiting to go to church. Please note that he picked out his entire outfit for church....with NO help from me at all! I think he has been influenced by his crazy Pa in Seattle!!! I think this is a cool picture that shows the influence on his life of both his Pa and his Grandpa....even though he doesn't see either one very often!
