Beach Baby

This past Saturday we took Charlotte to Lake Erie.  Needless to say, she loved it!

Return Missionaries

At the end of June, Charlotte and I flew down to Georgia so we could be at the airport to pick up my brothers from their two-year missions.  It was such an exciting time for my family, and I am so grateful that I was able to be there for the reunion. The prep:

 Dario and Josh both left before Charlotte was born.  They've had to watch their only niece grow up through pictures so far...hence the "I've waited my whole life..." message from Charlotte.

Reunion #1:
Josh returned home from Argentina first!

(I'm his favorite sister!)

Snapshot with the parents.

Charlotte and Uncle Josh finally get to meet.

Reunion #2:

Dario's mission was extended a week due to some complication with the incoming missionaries.  So a week after picking up Josh we all got to travel to the airport once again...this time to pick up his twin from Ecuador.

Uncle Dario and Charlotte finally able to get acquainted in person.

All the guys together.  (I'm spoiled because of them.)

(I'm also his favorite sister!)

The proud mom.  She always said she wanted lots of boys so she could send out missionaries.  I don't think she realized that those boys she sent out would come back men.
