My sweet little Grandma, or as my kids call her "Little Grandma" turned 92 years old this past month. My Uncle Oscar and Auntie Laurie from Kentucky visit every year to celebrate Grandma's Birthday. It's something I look forward to every year. This year I am so thankful that my cousin (Uncle and Auntie's Grandson) Adam and his wife Natalie (from Tennessee) came to celebrate with us! Uncle and Auntie treated us all to a fabulous Greek Dinner at Georges in Long Beach for Grandma's big day. What a feast! They just kept bringing the food out and even lit some on fire!! OPA!!
We ate family style, cause that's the way the Greeks do it! Too much food.... John-Mark had a happy belly that night boy!
Happy Birthday with Baklava and a candle.
My dear Uncle Oscar.
He and JM have a sweet German connection. Uncle served 25 + years in Army and lived in Germany for a significant amount of time. He and JM sprechen some deutsch a bit here and there.

Silly Faces
Took most of these shots with a fast lens and no flash...that's why the yellow in most photos.
With Uncle Oscar and Auntie Laurie. This was their first time meeting Ansel. Last time they were here we watched Ansel roll around in my tummy! I was 8 months pregnant at the time.
With Little Grandma. She always lights up when these two come to visit. She cooked up a storm for them (thankful we got to partake too.:)).
My Mama and Uncle. They are 18 months apart. Do they look alike or what? I think so.
Dad and Adam.
The last time I saw Adam, he was a little kid...maybe not even a teenager! Loved catching up and visiting with him and Natalie. Such a good time.
