Further north to East Bend

We spent time in East Bend, NC with Chad's family from Thursday July 22nd - Sunday July 25th.

I had a special shirt for Owen to wear for Pawpaw.  The shirt, which was a gift, says "Lil Webb" on the front.  Meme and Pawpaw really liked the shirt.

On Friday night, Cathy had planned a cookout for Chad's entire family so they could all meet Owen.  We were happy to see so many of them.

The Vanhoy's - including little cousin Addie!

Chad's cousin Christie - she's not a big fan of babies.  She claimed the same thing about dogs....but now they have a golden retriever.  Please explain?!?

Michael and Dalton

The Jones and Webb family

Chad jumps in with Mawmaw and all her great-grandchildren

Carson, Payton, Owen, Calyn and Addie (who is slightly upset)

Payton plays and sings "Take Me Out to the Ballgame"

Mawmaw and Owen

Great Aunt Deana gets to hold Owen too....and he wasn't even wearing red.

Lisa enjoys holding a baby all over again too....Addie seems to look on with curiosity!

Aunt Gail

Pawpaw and his claim to fame - rocking the babies to sleep.

Sweet Baby Owen - 5 weeks old

Carlton Owens Webb - part of the namesake

Carson gets his chance to hold Owen.  Calyn got to hold him too but I don't have a picture!  Calyn is such a big help with both boys!  She is such a little mommy and will make an excellent babysitter one day!

And Meme's favorite....a little time to snuggle up with the newest grandchild.

On Sunday, we headed to church.  We were happy to get a chance for Owen to meet Austin, Chad's great-uncle. 

Austin enjoyed meeting Owen!

Austin and Mary Jo (Chad's Grandmother) with Addie, Calyn, Payton, Chad, Owen and Carson

All 4 Grandkids!  

Carson (9), Payton (2), Owen (5 weeks), Calyn (11)

Can you tell they are all related?

We could have gotten a family picture but Chandra and Allen were too busy....they were off enjoying a relaxing vacation in St. Marteen or something?!?
