Papa's 90th Birthday & Labor Day Weekend

Monday my Papa turned 90 years old! The whole family went up to visit him including Aunt Genie, Uncle Jimmy, and Jamie. We loved seeing everyone. Papa's new home is beautiful. It looks like a posh hotel rather than a retirement community. It's brand new so everything is super clean and not crowded. The staff was really sweet too. Papa looked great. He's as spunky as ever! He cracks me up.
Saturday night we went to a really good seafood restaurant that is owned by Papa's step son. I had the tuna, but I have to say Carlos' mac and cheese was to die for. It was a mix between a cheddar and an alfredo sauce. So good! Before we left, we found a beautiful park to walk down to. We met a couple with a little girl a month younger than Avery. They were really sweet and the girls were cute playing together.  Also, Mom and Dad got Tim, Avery, and me matching Lacoste shirts from their trip to Paris. So...I HAD to get our pictures made in them. We felt kinda dorky walking down the street in matching get ups, but the pictures turned out nicely.
On Labor day we got to see our cousins Natalie & Larkin and Aunt Connie. Larkin is the newest addition to the family and she is beautiful.  She has three older brothers, so she'll have lots of family looking out for her. Natalie looks amazing of course. She has this super power of always looking great even after just having a baby.  We love our cousins!
I hope everyone had a great weekend and Happy Birthday to Gabrielle!
