Fourth of July & Painting for Daddy

Little Man waiting for the parade.

The famous Lake Park 4th of July Parade. Takes three minutes to pass. Very cute, though.

Watching with Mommy.

He likes the little kids and olds folks.

AND all the cute doggies dressed up!

Bye-bye until next year...

Trying to steal the Uncle Sam hat.

Posing with Grammy.

He has new Vans for the 4th. His shirt says "All American Hunk."

Gavin made a painting for his Daddy for Father's Day.

He had a great time.

Uh Oh! Paint on the belly!

Dave and Maggie's Engagement Party

Gavin and the Groom-to-Be.
Nickie only chewed on him a little bit.

Gavin loved hanging out with Uncle Josh.....

...and Andi!!!!

Dave thought maybe he would like flying out over the golf course...eeeeek!

Gavin seemed to know these were good guys....went right to all of them.

He wore his little sandals.

Mz. Blashaw was there...Gavin is not sure if Josh should be making faces at her.

It was a beautiful evening...and he was very, very good!

Bass Lake Family Reunion 2009

Climbing the rock wall.
One of these days......

Breakfast with Great Grandma.

Aunt Joyce helps with his letters.

Grammy and G

Jaclyn, Bugz, Kait and Adam

"Get me out of this thing!"

Loving life on the water.

Bass Lake is a happy place.

Pretty contented, I would say.

Adam teases G with ice chunks.

Looking at the lake with Auntie Kait.

Loves, loves loves his Mommy.

Feeling drowsy...

The boat rocked Gavin to sleep.

Gavin has a day of FIRSTS!

Gavin started out the day trying to stand on one foot while he put the other in his mouth.

He got his very first black eye.

The hair salon seems like a nice place.
Look! Toys!

Mommy takes one last look at the baby curls. OMGoodness. What is that horrible buzzing by my ears??

Grammy. Save me.

The binkie is not helping.

Sugar on a stick. And shaped like a ball. His favorite thing.

Mommy makes a sympathy lip for her boy.

Almost done!

A balloon!!
Mommy and her handsome little man.

Finally. A smile.

Such a big boy.

Notice that he is still watching the salon in case they come for him.

The best comfort of all. Mommy.
Showing Daddy his haircut. Notice he is still watching the salon....just in case.

A challenging day...and everyone survived!

Going Crazy....want to come along?

He has my Medjugore Rosary. He finally gave it back....

I swear I did not give him coffee.....

A visit from Northfork!!!!
