Happy Birthday Rita!

On Saturday, we celebrated my mother in law's birthday! We decided to do a little surprise party for her and her daughter and family came in from Richmond (secretly). Her sister also came over with her daughter. She was very surprised when she walked in and everyone came out yelling "SURPRISE"! The kids loved doing that! 
We had a great time celebrating! I snapped a few pictures (thanks Rita for reminding me). It was very nice to have Paul's sister and her kiddos here. We always love it so much when they visit, and it's never long enough. :(


This is Paul with his mom and sister! :)


The Grandbabies! We were so happy to see Desmond (far left). Usually when they come to visit..he stays with his dad the entire time and we don't get to see him. It was an extra special treat to see him and how much he's grown. He is such a kind and thoughtful young guy! 
This is Desmond, Jai, Rita, Gracie and our little Christian! :)



The kiddos getting ahold of some water guns and small toys to play with. 


This is Erin and Nena (Paul's Cousin and Aunt). Beauty runs in this family, let me tell you. I always feel so frumpy around them...haha. 


Desmond



I made her a carrot cake, since she had never tried it before. Everyone loved it! Yay! 


Rita told us that she had never had a birthday party before. She was one of 14 kids, so maybe that had a bit to do with it?! But, still, that was sad to hear. I was happy that we could do it for her though. Maybe next year, we can get a lot more family members together. 


Make A Wish!!! :)
