Going to Church in Jevnaker

Latest news Sunday August 2nd
Text Hi Grandpa
Going to Jevnaker Church with Maria and Ragnild. Will call later
Grandpa Gilbertson is thrilled and I am sure all Norwegians in Montevideo will hear about the Gilbertson grandsons going to church in Norway. Back in 1995 Grandma and Grandpa visited Norway and stayed with Ragnild and Maria. They were treated with much hospitality and it looks like Matthew and Eric are being treated nice in Norway.
