The Rich Family: October 2014
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 29, 2014. I got to spend two weeks with Jesse and Sarita and Stella beginning just a few days after she was born. I got to hold and snuggle her and watch her parents do the same. I got to see her go from this size to a pound and a half bigger in just two weeks. She's a sweet and beautiful baby, and her mom and dad are very sweet with her. Swaddling seems to comfort her and help her sleep better. He's a proud dad! This is how her hair looks right after being washed. I wanted to look at ...

The Rich Family: Ellsworth's Visits
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2015/08/ellsworths-visits.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. My good friend, Evelyn, always invites me to bring the grandchildren swimming at her house, and they love it! Ethan, Austin, and Hunter brought their mountain bikes s we could go for an early morning ride on the Pacific Electric Trail. Skylee and Kelsey loved swimming too! The girls took a walk over the park by themselves and took some pictures. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Charles and Barbara have been married for 36 years and are now enjoying being "empty nesters"! NEWPOR...

The Rich Family: May 2014
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 12, 2014. Our first evening out on the beach. This amazing statue of Neptune was my favorite part of Virginia Beach. The Boardwalk in Virginia Beach. Its lined with hotels and has Air Force jets flying overhead at regular intervals, breaking the serenity, but adding to the unique ambiance. Here's another view with Neptune in the background. Here's a view from the fitness room on the 17th floor. The Beach in front of our hotel. If you enlarge this you can see it was George Washington's pew.

The Rich Family: January 2015
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 16, 2015. Its a long flight to Connecticut, but made longer when we had a five hour delay in Chicago! It was all worth it, once we got there though. Grandpa was very excited to meet this little girl- even though we didn't arrive until after 11:00 pm! This is a little outfit I'd saved from when Jesse was a baby. He looked cute in it, and so does Stella, even thought it's a little boyish. And now she's reading The Goose Girl. However, she seems to like picture books too. This us the library...

The Rich Family: April 2014
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 3, 2014. ABBY AND KEVIN'S WEDDING. First thing Grandpa wanted to do when we got to Utah was to hold baby Daniel! Carly's family arrived about the same time we did, so we all went out to eat at Cafe Rio. We spent some time Thursday helping Abby move out of her apartment. That evening, Kevin's parents hosted a very nice dinner for family and the wedding party at Macaroni Grill. It was wonderful being in the temple with Kevin and Abby and many friends and family. These two little beauties en...

The Rich Family: March 2015
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 23, 2015. We got to see Joey's family for a few days in February, when they made a quick trip for President's Day weekend. They actually arrived the night before we got back from our trip to Napa, so got to settle in early. Last time they came, Jackson really liked going to Scandia Amusement Park, so we did that again. We had no idea how much Daniel would like it too! He was not going to be left behind, and insisted on going on all the rides too. Jackson sunbathing with his grandpa. This wa...

The Rich Family: NEWPORT BEACH JULY 2015
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2015/08/newport-beach-july-2015.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. NEWPORT BEACH JULY 2015. The kids loved being in the waves, either on boogie boards or just standing out there and letting them crash over themselves. It was scary watching little Bella do that, but Lexi kept a good eye on her. I think it's Evan on a board in this picture. The view from our balcony. We were literally steps from the ocean. If you look closely, you can see the cow! Taking a walk on the boardwalk. These two don't see each other often, but still pals. Charles works as...

The Rich Family: June 2015
http://barbchas.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. New Haven, CT June 2015. I was fortunate to find a flight that went all the way to New Haven, so I didn't have to ride a bus and train from Hartford this time. It was a very small plane with propellers that went from Philadelphia to New Haven. I was so excited to see Stella for the first time in several months. She changed a lot in that time! She loved going over to East Rock Park, which is about 6 blocks away. Sarita made baby food from scratch, which Stella loved! Jesse was in A...

The Rich Family: July 2014

Wednesday, July 9, 2014. We had a great time in Newport Beach the week of the 4th of July. The house was a little dumpy, but it was big enough and right on the beach. These cousins love each other! Everyone wanted to be in a picture with Daniel. We were really happy Jake and the kids could make it for part of the week. Barb and Evan out for an early stroll. It was so good to have Jake come! These kids are digging for sand crabs. They caught quite a few. Bella couldn't get enough of holding this happy baby.
