A wonderful day with family again. Meaghan, Louis and sweet Charlotte came for a visit.
But this is Richard with his two granddaughters giving him a hand. 


Charlotte loves Grandpa's jelly beans.
Aha she found the green ones, her favourites. See the smile :>)

Charlotte and Daddy doing a puzzle together . 
Miss Charlotte picking up. Thank you dear Charlotte. 

As you can see we had a lovely time with Charlotte. Meaghan and Louis were both good company. 
Marg came over while they were here and Charlotte introduced herself to Aunty Marg. It was cute. She is cute.  
When all had left I had some Thai rice for dinner and Ray had a tomato sandwich. Not a big meal but good enough for us. We are not very big eaters any more.

Quinn, Rose and the family cat. I don't know what the cat is called  but she is bigger than Quinn.

Family is always fun to entertain even though they actually entertain us. I am a happy camper when the kids come to call. Kids of all ages are so welcome here.

Richard having a beer, I wonder if it is to celebrate his birthday tomorrow the 21st of July. Happy Birthday my dear son. I hope  it is good for you.

We are watching a new show , new to us ,
Unforgettable. It is not bad, we may watch it again.

That's all folks.
Have a great evening.

Good night.
