Over the weekend Rihanna celebrated her Grandfather’s birthday with family in Barbados.  The party look like great fun and Rihanna even got a chance to dance with her Grandfadda Bravo.  She also sent him a very heartfelt birthday wish on her instagram page that said,

“Happy Birthday Grandfadda Bravo!!!!! You are so special to all of us!!! If it wasn’t for you buying out the whole tray of mangoes from gran gran Dolly that one day you got off your ship in Guyana, and charmed her with that smile laced with a gold cap, NONE of us would be here!! So Im saying a special thanks to you for having the heart of a Lion, my Scorpio King, Legend!!! They will never know what it took for you to get us here!! I love you way past unconditional!!! You’re true az steel BRAVO!!!! #BirthdayBoy”

While she was in Barbados she also got time to go to a charityevent for some children.  You can see all the photos from RiRi’s family fill weekend below!

Rihanna obviously enjoys giving back.  She talked to several children who were taking part in the charity day Dance 4 Life, a charity  initiative designed to inspire and unite young people to push back the spread of HIV/AIDS.
