Gavin's Birthday

Gavin enjoyed sitting with the grown ups eating one of his favorite foods--carrots! That is mostly what he ate for dinner; he ate carrots and chips with a side of milk. Oh well!













Aunt Staci was oh-so-thrilled to be photographed.



A couple of the cousins playing in the two room fort complete with a skylight and a door adjoining the two rooms. Jessica's kids made it. It's pretty cool!





Thanks to Uncle Jon for barbecuing the burgers for us. They were delicious, as always!



The younger cousins having fun. The older cousins didn't stay very close, so sorry, I don't have any pictures...





Gavin's birthday cake. He recently became enamored with Thomas the Train.





He still doesn't get blowing out the candles. Oh well, maybe next year.



He loved all of his presents! Thanks everyone!



















Another present from our friends Eric and Gail. Gail drew this for us! It looks awesome! Check out her blog! (Which has better pictures of this piece artwork and more!)



Thanks to all of you who came and brought food (it was all delicious!), to Aunt Jessica and Uncle Jon for letting us use the grill and use the backyard, and thanks to Grandma and Grandpa in Sacramento who couldn't make it but sent a couple of cute outfits (the swim outfit from the sprinkler trampoline and the second outfit pictured on Jessica Lake's blog.) We think it was a great 2nd birthday and hope there are many more to come!
