Oh they are georgeous Anitamo, I agree with Saxon, what a family likeness I can just picture how blue their eyes must have been.
I wonder if he was such an angel off camera  :D

Jc I have to say I didn't recognise the likeness but I do now it has been pointed out. My grandad had the most piercing blue eyes even as an old man. I wish I had inherited the colour. Mine are blue but not as startling as his.
