Sweet baby Cheri and her mom came to visit for a few days on their way to Hawaii!
I can't tell who was more excited, Baby Cheri or Grandma,
but we both had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute together!
We swam in the pool, hung out with friends and rode on Grandpa's boat out at Folsom Lake.
It was fabulous but it all went by way to fast and before we knew it,
they were heading off to Hawaii for a much deserved vacation with Brett's family.
We met up at Karen's bakery with the bicycling group after their Wednesday bike ride!
Here is cute Liz with Kimber and sweet little Cheri!
And Lisa Shotwell meeting baby Cheri for the first time!
Cheri with my dear friends and neighbors from Weddington, Sue Jack and Karen Duffey!
And here is sweet little Cheri, sitting on her cherry quilt,
wearing the darling bow that my cute friend, Alyssa Pettey made for her.
Seriously LOVE this bow so I ordered about a dozen of them from Alyssa!
And you can too at A Colorful Delight on Etsy!
Can't get enough of that sweet Cheri pie and her adorable bow!!
Cheri's best friend, Emily, came over to visit and showed up in the same exact outfit!
Aren't they adorable in their twinner outfits, playing with their toys!?
Beautiful babes!
It was so fun to watch them play together!
It was time to swim, so Cheri's mom changed her into her swimsuit
and lathered her up with sunscreen.

Cheri was too busy to be bothered and was content just playing with her toys.
And eating them!
Cheri seemed so happy to be sitting outside, playing with her toys
that we almost hated to interupt her and put her in the pool...

but Kimber assured us that she would love being in the water and she was right!
Lots of giggles...
and smiles from this little one!
She can hardly contain her excitement and for a minute I almost thought
that she is going to jump out of her little floaty thing!
I loved watching Cheri enjoy the water with the cute Hansen and McLeod kids
playing in the background! Those kids are so adorable!
Cute Momma and her cute water baby!
and then she really got excited!
Such a darling little fishy!
And then Aunt Allie took a turn!
Did I mention that Allie and Justin rolled into town,
just in time to see baby Cheri?! Well, they did!
And we were so glad that their vacation overlapped
so we could all spend time together..
even if I did have to share baby Cheri:)!
This baby girl loves the water! Look at her smile!
On Thursday, we invited friends over for a pool party with the grandkids!
Karen Duffey and I have been anxiously awaiting the time for Avery Ann and Cheri Ann to meet!
Here they are in they darling dresses that Karen gave them!

Friends from the bike group came over to visit and swim, along with other friends in Granite Bay!
The only requirement was that you had to bring you swimsuit and get in the pool,
which was perfect because it was such a hot day that we all got in to cool down.
My cute friend, Liz Skinner, made these darling cookies for the pool party!

Aren't they absolutely adorable?! And so yummy too!
That Liz is so clever and cute!
We decided to try Cheri in the life vest.
She is not too sure about it...
but once I put her in the water, she seems to be just fine!
And before you know it, she is all smiles again!
And ready to dive right into the pool, seriously!
Luckily, I had a tight grip on her!
cause she is going to town, splashing,
and playing in the water...
just loving Grandma's pool!
Finally, mom got a turn to play with baby Cheri in the pool.
And she was pretty happy to see her mom...
and mom is pretty happy to see her too!
Kimber and baby Cheri with our dear friend, Kim Nash.
And here is Mandy showing her kids that even though she just had a baby 4 months ago,
she can still do a flip on the trampoline!
Pretty amazing!
The kids are pretty impressed!
Karen's grandsons are adorable!
They loved the trampoline!
Rachel, Cindy Stickland, and Mandy with baby Avery!

Did I say that it was a hot day? Well, it was!
My dear friend, Karen Duffey with her daughter Rachel, and daughter-in-law, Mandy and granddaughter, Avery Ann. So sweet!
The new baby girls, Cheri Ann and Avery Ann with their moms.
The grandmas, me and Karen, with our granddaughters and their moms!
So glad these two little girls could finally meet! I think they will be best friends like their grandmas!
Grandma Deb and Grandma Karen with baby Cheri Ann and Avery Ann!
And to think this all started on Weddington Circle! Love my friends from "the Hood!"
Karen and Rachel and the kids with their cookie!
The boys LOVED it!!
We ordered take out from LaBou, one of Kimber's favorite lunch spots,
and sat out on the porch and visited!
What a fun group of gals... and Justin too! He wasn't about to miss out on the fun!!
These grandsons of Karen's are pretty dang cute!
Seriously, can't get enough of them...
and their cute faces!
Can you blame me for taking so many photos?!
Grandma Karen with her cute Avery Ann!
Aunt Sue with little Avery!
We lined Karen's grandkids up to get a photo and this is the view from above!
And this is the view straight on! Aren't they adorable!
Grandpa came home from work and Cheri asked him to play with her
so he got down on her cherry quilt and they played!
Grandpa especially liked the toys that made lots of noises!
On Friday morning, we headed out to the lake.
Kimber got a chance to waterski and as you can see,
she is "a chip off the old block!" (see photo of Dad below!)

They look like they have the exact same style skiing behind the boat!
Allie showing us her skills on the wakeboard.
I was on baby duty and loving every minute by holding her while she slept the whole time.
These two were enjoying the day out on the lake.
Dad was on "hydrate or die" duty, helping me get a drink of diet pepsi
even though my hands because I busy holding little Cheri!
And here is Justin clearing the wake and making it look easy!
Baby girl woke up and as happy to see her mom.
She obviously loves the MasterCraft and can't wait to learn to ski like her mom.
Next summer, right?!
Grandpa says, "YES! Next summer we will get you on the
kids wooden waterskis, the same that all the other Holt kids learned on!"
I think we still have them in the garage, waiting for the grandkids to use them!
The kids surprised me with an early birthday celebration
with dinner at my favorite Crush 29!
So fun to celebrate with this cute couple!
Baby Cheri loved Crush!
She especially loved look in the mirrors that were above the seats!
Actually, she really wasn't interesting in eating...
just give that girl a little plastic toy and she will chomp on it all day!
Such a fun night of celebration!
Love this last picture of me holding little Cheri with our matching outfits!
Cheri insisted that I wear the pink Birthday Princess sash,
while she donned the Happy Birthday crown! Precious!
Cheri and her mom left the next morning and we were sad to let them go!
We had such a good time with sweet little Cheri
and can't wait for our next visit with this sweet thing!
I had a slice of Cheri Pie and she definitely left me wanting more!
