So cute!!

Sieger van Denneheuvel januari 2012 : The two little ones in the picture are Sieger and Philip van Denneheuvel and the mum overlooking the stroller (kinderwagen) is Marijke van Denneheuvel ( in 1964 Marijke Tonneman). We are very pleased to have this picture now in high resolution. We do have the picture as a newspaper clipping but never got to the original.
