out to Denver!

Waiting in the airport while Mark parked the car.
It's AMAZING how much stuff we had,
compared to when I flew solo the other day!

some quality time with Aunt Erika...

just chillin' out at Grandma and Grandad's house...

At the playground by my grandparent's house...
as you can see (as he looks like he's at the North Pole),
we are wimps in "cold" weather.
(It was probably in the 50's!
there were kids in the neighborhood in shorts and flip-flops!)

Gav was not a fan of the mittens!!!


At the end of our trip, we met up with our friends
the Novaks up in Evergreen.
There was alot of sharing of snacks with Braeden!

...along with sharing snacks with Braeden,
there was wrestling with Ryan!

Holly watching as Gav is once again feeding Braeden...

Gav demolished Scott and Holly's living room....

Happy Heart's Day!

San Francisco for Erika's birthday!

Last weekend, Gav, Grandma JoJo and I went to San Francisco and met up with Kendra to celebrate Erika's birthday.... Definitely an adventure!

Gav and Grandma JoJo showing each other their teeth at the airport...

waiting for take-off!

"tickling" Aunt Erika....

good times at the park!

sleepy guy after an action-packed day!

beautiful crazy weather at Crissy Field the next morning....

hanging with Aunt Kenchie at the playground!

Saturday night at dinner...
the new fav thing to do is playing with the sugar packets..... everywhere!

down at the wharf...
Gav thought it was so fun to make me wear his
creepy-crawly creature that Grandma bought him...

ahhhh the girls!

Happy Birthday AE!!!

While Gav was napping, I went for a run and ran past a fire station... they were outside washing their truck and told me that I could bring Gav back for a visit when he woke up!

Needless to say, I think that this was the highlight of his trip...
The firemen were sooooo nice!
They let him crawl all through the truck and everything.
He was in heaven!


We thought that seeing the truck up close was cool!
But touching it was the best!

Our last night there... quality Steamroller time!

I love this picture... makes me smile.

Supercross! (Anaheim 1)

Boys-Night-Out!
