"Elizabeth!" Maria beamed at her granddaughter and excused herself from Richie with a kiss on the cheek. Elizabeth hadn't met Howard yet and she wanted to rectify that.
"Come in, you're just in time. I have to go check on the food but I want to introduce you to someone first." She took the young woman by the hand and brought her over to Howard. "Elizabeth this is Howard Stark, Tony's father and your grandfather. Howard, I'd like you to meet our granddaughter Elizabeth." She was very pleased to have both her grandchildren and her husband in the same room. Now all they needed were her son, his wife and his brother in law and the family would be in one spot at the same time.
