Snow day!!

I know we live in Colorado but I can't ever remember having this much snow this early in the 13 years I have lived here. Woah, have we really lived here 13 years? Anyways...
We got almost 2 feet of snow back in October. It was crazy! G was too little to remember snow last year so this was pretty much his first experience. He wasn't too thrilled at first but after while he was having fun. Josh bought him his own little shovel so when we got another 10 inches last night Gavin got to help his daddy shovel the walks while mama got to sleep in!! Now that's a good day!

A Week called Halloween

Halloween doesn't seem to be much of a "day" anymore. It seems like it's more of a week, which is fine with me. G was sick on the actual day so it was a good thing that we had him in his costume a few times before. We took him in it to a pumpkin patch but with the crazy Colorado weather it was too hot to leave him to be a giraffe for very long. We took him to a friend's costume party the weekend before and he got to ride a rocking horse.
The day of Halloween he was sick and we sat on the couch while Josh handed out candy with his "one for them one for me" rule. That's a good rule!

and a few more...

Since I've been so bad!

A few more pictures

The zoo and Aunt Jen!

I've been so bad about getting new pictures on here! So sorry, it's tough getting the time to download off the camera and come up with a blog post with something interesting to say...but anyways!
In September G and I went to the zoo with one of my bosses and her little boy. We had a good time! G liked the elephants and he also liked his goldfish crackers. Big surprise.
Aunt Jen came out to visit later in the month and I think she could have squeezed Mr G all day long and not gotten enough. He had a good time playing with her while she was here! We miss you!!

Some pictures

Just a few pictured of Gavin from the last few weeks...

The birthday party!

We all know babies don't remember their first birthday party. It's all for the parents. Well, these parents sure enjoyed Gavin's!
We went up to G's Mamaw and Pawpaw's house for the day. Grandma Donna was here for the weekend, so G got lots of grandparent hugs and kisses. He had his very own cake that his Aunt Michelle made for him. One of Gavin's favorite foods is goldfish crackers, so she made him two cakes in teh shape of the goldfish. They were too cute!
G got lots of fun toys, he's been having so much fun playing with everything since that day.
