Grandma Virginia's Trip - part three

Day Four

We went over to my parent's house and hung out for the day. My mom and Virginia bonded over wine, and we all had a great time.



Mario making a weird face.

My dad and mom






Playing around


Chowing down on Grandma Brandner's Chex Mix


Matthew


Charlotte all bundled up






Diablo. Charlotte talks about him a lot. The first thing she asks Grandma Brandner on the phone usually is "Diablo?", as if to ask how he is doing.

Mario and Virginia






Razor. Don't worry, Charlotte loves him too!






Nathan talking about the Roman Empire (or something history related) with Virginia


Whatever he was talking about must have been pretty interesting. Or shocking.


She loves bathtime in their sink


Grandma Brandner giving Charlotte a bath


Grandpa checking out her teeth


One of my favorite pictures of her trip up here


Eating Oreos with Granma Viginia after we got back home

Virginia's Visit - part two

Sorry this is so late! We just got back from vacation (pictures to come soon!). I had oped to get these up before we left. Anyways, here you go!

day three (continued)

Charlotte throwing a fit about leaving the park (crazy hair and all)


I really like this picture for some reason

After our walk in the park we met with Jo and Amanda at the Widmer Brewery (they make my favorite beer!).

The beer on tap.



Charlotte having a good time at the brewery


What else? Mario watching sports


Jo and Charlotte making funny faces together



Virginia taking a picture of the brewery decor


Just hanging out


Charlotte's drink. It's just milk!


After our meal we had to take Virginia to VooDoo donughts. This place is wacky, and a their humor is just a tiny bit dirty.

The whole building is pink! So is their van.


Jo


Amanda


A happy Grandma


Charlotte hanging out in the rocking chair. Where else can you go and get a doughnut and relax in a rocking chair?


Hmm, a bit of that dirty humor.


Yummy doughnuts! The combinations are crazy, but so good!


Charlotte in her carseat


Yes, yes that is captain crunch berries on that doughnut


Even weirder is the maple doughnut with bacon. Yes, bacon. I also picked up a dozen to take to my family's house the next day. Matthew, my brother, wanted nothing to do with them when he found out all the dirty names. Ha ha ha!!!


Charlotte's doughnut. A 'Dirty Snowball'. LOL

I can't even tell you what the name of this doughnit on here. Too dirty for a little's girl's photo blog!

YUM!

Grandma Virginia's Visit - part one

We are so lucky that Mario's mom is able to come up here and see Charlotte at least a couple times a year. Mario's side of the family mostly lives in Texas and New Mexico... so far away from Charlotte! We only get to go down there maybe once every year or so. Anyways, Grandma got to come see Charlotte! The weather was kinda rainy and cold, so we didn't get to do as many outdoor things this time, but it was still a fun visit! It went by way too quickly!

Day One

Playing with the blocks that Gracum (what Mario calls his grandma) sent Charlotte. She loves them!


Reading a book together


"There's the duckling grandma!"



Day Two

Looking at her new bath time baby


Not sure why she was making the evil face, but it's funny!


Eating Grandma's cooking! She really likes mole (like the Mexican dish, not the animal, LOL).


Playing Wii with Grandma and Dad





Intently watching the game




Sharing a nice moment with Grandma. Awwww!





Day Three

Taking a walk in the park.


Demonstrating a yoga pose
Sitting in her stroller




'rella! (That's Charlotte for umbrella)
