This is my new niece, Carly. She was pretty much the star of the show this weekend. Can you blame anyone?
This was fun. My 96 year old Grandma joined us from her nursing home for the celebration. She ended up having a sleepover with us. All the kids greeted her with waving balloons at the end of the driveway. Grandma said she felt like she was being welcomed into heaven. :)
My brother in law Juan is a proud new daddy
Happy 96th Birthday, Nanny.
My brother Joel with my dad and grandma
Joseph loves Carly..
Ava was mesmerized....
My dining room table seated 27 people thanks to my Christmas benches!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

What a good looking family I have! ;)
What fun! Zoya looks so big. How much has she grown?
Awwwww!!! Carly is the cutesy little peanut ever!!!! Congrats on a new niece!
I love seeing pictures of your family. Especially since your Joseph is the reason my Varsha is coming home.
Wonderful pictures of a wonderful family! Love the one of Joseph with Carly. BTW, I showed Joseph's picture to Bella the other day and said "Yosef" and she got the biggest smile, it was so cute!!!!
We had a blast at your house, Charissa. Thanks for hosting us all. So many fun new memories!
Hi, are your parents Dutch? Because you call them opa and oma? I'm a Dutch mom to two precious children born in China and following your blog for a while now, you sure have a beautiful family!
Best regards,
Caroline (the Netherlands)
I can't get enough of those pics!
I love them all. Thank you for sharing this. You guys are so blessed to have such a loving family as this. I still haven't met Joel or Jason and his family.
Hopefully one day!!
Love
Aunt Sharon
Caroline- Yes, my grandmother (the 96 year old birthday girl) is Dutch. We used Opa and Oma to differentiate between the other set of grandparents. :)
Alice, Zoya has gained about 7 pounds total in a year. We are finally getting somewhere!
Amanda-I'd love to hear more about Varsha and your family. :)
I sure have enjoyed updating myself here! It had been a long time - too long. All your pictures have made me smile! You're parents look good. Your Mom looks so beautiful! I can see you aging like her.:)
