Happy Birthday Gramma!

We went home for the weekend to help celebrate Gramma's birthday and to introduce Zach to the family. Everyone was home, except Uncle Clint who was stuck working due to all the snow storms around Bismarck. Ben & I were feeling a little under the weather, but still a fun weekend spending time with family!



Makenna is growing up so fast and is such a good little helper with all the kids! I wish she lived closer so I had a baby-sitter. :))



Catching up...Ella, Gavin, Ben & Grace.



Zach snuggled in with Aunt Carly.



Zach & his Great (emphasis :) Gramma Barthel



Part of the birthday crew helping Gramma (& Uncle Tim!) celebrate.



What big helpers!



Ben and another 'Great'...Grampa Begger




Gramma asked if anyone wanted to take a bath and the clothes came flying off!


Ella, Grace & Ben



Abby informed us she was getting 'too big' for the cousin baths. :))




Zach hanging with Grampa.




Not an easy task, but we managed to get all the cousins together for a picture...and no one was crying! haha



We even got one with Gramma & Grampa sitting in...I think this was Gramma's favorite birthday gift. :)


Zach & Uncle Cory...


...with Aunt Annie...


...and Aunt Jada.


Ella even took a turn holding Zach...she's had lots of practice being a big sister!



The two 'little' guys...Zach & Gavin...7 months apart.





The boys...Zach, Gavin & Ben
