A Very Family Weekend!

It started out with Mr. Charming here taking me out on a date. Life has been hectic lately and our dates are a lot of fun. Then on Saturday it was Chris' 22nd birthday. He wanted the family to all be here for his B-day. The guys took off to pick up our season tickets to the new Real Soccer Stadium. And we girls just chilled. I pulled out Cinderella, and the princess didn't love it.
Do you see how amazed this sweet little baby is to be looking at me, her grandma!:-)


She was so happy I was holding her that she wanted to give me kisses. The fact that she was hungry had nothing to do with it!



When grandpa got back he wanted to play with the girls.




We decided to compare Elizabeth to Beatrice, and I love the look on her face.



Chris wanted Cheesecake for his birthday. I hadn't made one in a long time and this one went a little flat, but he loved it.


Then Issy took him his gifts and helped him open them all. Later he had to keep lighting his candles and letting her blow them out, she loved it.



Then on Sunday my Aunt Brenda came over with her daughter Stacy and her family. We had dinner and enjoyed each others company. This is a cool trick that they did. These forks are hanging on a toothpick that is resting on the tip of another tooth pick. It was kind of crazy.


We did a lot of talking. We always like to talk:-)




We watched a little bit of Wall-E, these little guys settled in, they didn't even need a pillow. Oh, to be young again!




Aunt Brenda, Erin and the tiny princess.



These two kids were due within a month of each other, but Kelsy was early and Nathan was late so they are about 2 months apart.



Kelsey is great with the little ones. The princess just loves her, and her two little sisters do too.
She was so sweet carrying around 3 little ones.




We had a nice visit. It's fun to be in an area where we actually have "family" to visit. After they all left the Tiny Princess woke up. She slept most of the time they were here. Issy so far really like her new little sister. She gets excited to go and say "hi" and give her kisses.



This is a sweet little picture of Elizabeth I love it when her eyes are open:-)

Whoa, Rene!! You put almost as many pictures on this as I put in mine! And all of charming little eyes! Happy Birthday, Chris! I remember that Mike called me the morning Chris was born, and we talked about his name - Charles' middle name. Cool.

That picture of Michael? Oh, he makes it toooooo easy.
