Patties
Patties: The Rijs Family Chronicle | Nick Mountstephen
1 post
Standing on the wharf at Rotterdam on that gloomy day in 1956 was Piet Rijs, with his wife Annie and five boys under ten. To add to the drama Annie was pregnant with their sixth boy. You would think misgivings would be uppermost in Piet Rijs' mind. But he climbed the gangway to a new life, never looking back.

Exactly 1 year ago we ate at Patti‘s (my granny‘s favorite place to eat at Christmas) with both grandparents (Granny circled above from 1 yr ago today). The food is always amazing & it‘s overly decorated for Christmas. Today we ate & celebrated Ava‘s 5 bday (her bday is 12/20) without Granny & Papa.

W/o the support from you all I couldn‘t have done it! THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all the love & support! It honestly warmed my heart!
