Weekend Events

Before I begin, has anyone heard anything from Candice Beal (baby Jackson's mom)?? We thought she was due sometime soon, but have not seen any updates on her blog! We are praying, nonetheless, but are a little worried! :-)

This weekend was Vince's sister's, Sheri's, wedding. She looked beautiful!! And it was a great time! Charlie loved all the attention and love he got this weekend. Friday night Cynthia watched him while we went to the rehearsal and dinner. He had a great time playing with her and made sure ALL of his toys received equal attention! :-)

On Saturday, we brought Charlie to the ceremony at church where he met most of our extended family for the first time. Everyone was so excited to finally meet him and he, of course, loved the attention! He was great during the ceremony too! I was a little nervous because we do not bring him to mass yet, but he was so easy going and even cooperated for a few family pictures afterwards. Before heading out to the reception, we brought Charlie over to Dee's and he had a nice afternoon and sleepover with her. We are so lucky that she and her family love him so much! We were able to relax completely knowing he was in great hands!

On Sunday, there was a big Italian feast at Vince's parents with his family that was still in town. It was nice to spend some time with relatives that we do not see often enough! Of course, Grandma out did herself and the food was fantastic! I think I ate so many Italian cookies that I might turn into a cookie myself, but I couldn't help it - they were all so delicious!

Hopefully everyone has safe travels today and tomorrow! And we are looking forward to doing it all over again next summer with Dave and Colleen! :-)

Cheers to the happy couple!


Mommy, aren't I just the cutest thing ever??
Everyone says I am, so it must be true!

Charlie's outfit says: "If you think I'm cute you should see my aunt"

Sunday night: an exhausted Charlie after a very exciting weekend!
