The first and the latest.
Le premier et les derniers petits- enfants
The first and the latest.
English version below the pictures .
La semaine dernière nous avons eu la visite de notre petite-fille aînée, Julie, fille de la «duchesse » Carole. Julie a 26 ans et est professeur agrégé dans l’Enseignement secondaire .
Last week we got the visit of our oldest grandchild, Julie, “Duchess” Carole's daughter.
Julie is 26 and is a high ranked teacher in the secondary school. ( Photo above taken in October 2013 by Michel Fauquet)La même semaine, nous sommes allés rendre visite à notre dernier enfant, Jean-Baptiste (39) et son épouse Melody et nous avons revu les jumeaux Raphaël et Yris. Voici deux photos d'eux prises en Octobre dernier. Ils ont 14 mois.
Ainsi, entre Julie et les jumeaux, il y a 25 ans, un quart de siècle. Nous avons rencontré chacun d'eux au cours de la même semaine. Ceci est plutôt impressionnant. Au total, nous avons 15 petits-enfants venant de 6 enfants.
Ah! Les grandes familles!

The same week we went for a visit at our youngest son Jean-Baptiste (39) and his wife Melody and we saw again the twins Raphaël and Yris . Here are two photos of them taken in last October . they are 14 month old ;
So between Julie and the twins in time there are 25 years , a quarter of century. we met all of them during the same week . This is rather impressing. At the total we have 15 grand children coming from 6 children .
Ah! The large families!

Those are happy-looking twins. Your granddaughter is beautiful.
Lots of love with children and grandchildren.....
I like seeing the pony on my site, GC.
I always say " Happy People Make Happy People" you and Janine have done a wonderful job!!! Julie is just a year younger than my twins, isn't it rewarding to have them be successful in their careers at such an early age? The twins are so beautiful they should be in the movies, or at least commercials! ilym
Your family is precious ~ beautiful ~
My dear friend Michel, I am back again. . . and what a delightful "home-coming"! You have such a beautiful family! Julie is so pretty, and to also be a high-ranked teacher -- congratulations to her, and to her proud parents and grandparents.
Your son and daughter-in-law have such cute twins... I'm sure that Raphael and Yris keep them very busy. How is the name Yris pronounced? That is a new name to me.
Blessings to you and Janine continue to come your way, and I pray that they continue to do so... Love, Carolyn
All 3 of them are beautiful! We also have 15 grandchildren, plus 6 great-grandchildren.
We still do not have any great grand children.
Such Blessings!! Beautiful grand daughter and the twins are adorable.
The twins are absolutely adorable!
Nice pics.

Such a beautiful family!!! Big families are a blessing.
The twins are adorable!
My oldest cousin was born in 1968 and the youngest in 1986 (I think? Somewhere around that time). Also some of my cousins have kids now, the youngest is two. And my cousin born in '68 has a kid who was born around the same time as my youngest cousin, so they are good friends.
This is what happens when you have so many kids and a big family. My mom's oldest sibling is 15 years older than her youngest.
The twins are wonderful! I especially liked the photo with Raphael smiling up at the camera! Too cute!
What a beautiful family!
What a lovely granddaughter you have. Your pride and joy for sure. Enjoyed the photos of the twins. They are so adorable. <3 Enjoy .... Marilyn Thysell aka thistlepatch

RYC: thanks you for the words on our autumn. Regarding my son in law, he finishes his radiation tomorrow. He continues to have pain, but it is not unbearable. I wish it would be gone completely so he can feel normal again. Thanks for asking Michel.
aww they are precious
I agree with the comments, such cuties! So nice you can visit with all those children and grandchildren and enjoy them. Your oldest granddaughter is beautiful. God bless your family.
Your grand daughter, Julie is beautiful. The twins are getting so big. They are adorable. So glad you get to enjoy them.
I can not imagine a world in which I am not surrounded by family. Yours is truly a blessing!
You have beautiful grand childern
RYC: Thank you Michel for your comment on my post "my Days". I too hope and pray that the radiation has allowed Dave to beat the cancer. I thank you for your prayers my dear friend.
Lol, at your comment, Michel. If I had that guy in my van I would give him a piece of my mind!
You do indeed have a beautiful-looking family, Michel! Lovely pictures!
Thank you for your comment on my site to hook up with other Xangans!
The twins are so beautiful and your granddaughter as well. She has stepped into your shoes (when you retired)
Do you speak with any of your former pupils?
Thanks again, Michel!

Happy Monday, Michel!
Thank you so much for your kind, encouraging, wise comments on my last post!

Is not Xanga a community in which we can support each other ?
RYC: Yes, it is, Michel! Xanga has always been a source of support for me through the years!
I sure appreciate Xanga and Xangans! That's why I share my heart here...whether I am feeling goofy or reflective or "down".
More HUGS!!!
Boy I hate xanga did this.HAd to get my son to help and download the stuff.Hope all is well with you my friend.
I can tell how proud you are of Julie and she looks like a very pleasant person.
The baby photo of the twins made me smile! So cute, but must be a lot of work for their parents keeping up with them.
I envy the closeness and love of your large family. It's wonderful to see.
Magnifique Julie!
Et les jumeaux sont adorables également!
Raphaël, c'est tout Antoine
Bravos pour votre belle famille et dans pas trop longtemps, déjà des arrières-petits-enfants...
Amitiés
You showing the way it should be. Family unity.
We need more hope in these society and you show that is very well possible to have big families in these times.
Twenty five years is a long gap in time, and I am not sure it is finished yet. Is it? No more babies coming?
Amitié
Carlo
