My cousin married our Grade 9 math teacher&#8217;s daughter.&#160;That girl, Jean,&#160;took the photos for this&#160;book&#160;that we gave Dad and Mom for Christmas. Sunrise from our window&#160;in Abbotsford. The Bergen Family Christmas party. What an awesome family! Relaxing by painting together [&#8230;]]]></description>
