After a tedious 16-hour drive to Ohio we embarked upon 5 days of never-ending family fun! Gavin had his pick of cousins to hold him and tend to his every need. He was an equal opportunity baby because he would change his mind as to who was his 'flavor of the hour.' Harrison loved all the boys to play with and especially loved Cameron (Cramden as he called him) always wanting to know his whereabouts and what he was doing. Cramden was very kind to his 4 year-old shadow. Christmas Eve was when we all gathered to take this picture, believe it or not there are a couple people missing from this photo! My Grandpa, a man of few words, was overheard commenting how all of this started with him and my Grandma.
Can you believe we were able to get all these people together to pose for this picture? Finding Steve in this picture is like 'Where's Waldo?' He was our photog for the night and he had to run into the picture before the timer went off. No one was able to do a quality check and make sure his face was visible. Can you find him?
Aunt Pat was willing to take loving from Harrison however he would give it. She went to far as to act interested in a video game. Why are boys so stingy with their affection?
WWE has nothing on these boys and their wrestling skills! This was a constant activity, it became sorta like background noise.
Harrison and Gavin had so much fun in the snow! Gavin loved to walk and watch the snow crunch under his feet and Harrison loved sledding down the hills. Not captured in pictures is Uncle Justin's big crash on a snowboard resulting in the demise of his worn-everyday-Levi-Strauss. Justin said even Grandma's sewing skills wouldn't be able to bring the jeans back from the dead.
When I'm older and look through the rear view mirror of my life this Christmas will come to mind. I'm thankful for my family and the blessings I've been given.
Is Steve behind your mom in the picture?
