Gavin's Birthday Party!

Happy Birthday Gavin! Ok so its not quite his birthday yet but we had to have his party a few days early. It was so much fun! My Dad and his wife, Allison, flew down for the big event! It was so good to see them and have them here for the special day! And little did I know my sister, Lisyl, was surprising me and she also flew down on Thursday. I was at work and there she was walking down the aisle towards me. Of course I started crying and freaking out! Thank you Lisyl. You are the best sister a girl could ask for. I love you so much! It meant so much that you could be here for Gav's day.

Here is Gavin and Grandma Allison the morning before the party! He just loved his balloons!
And he loved Grandma Allison!

Here is Andrea, and Gav's best friend, Nathan! We had so much fun in the pool even though it was freezing cold! It was so hot outside the water almost felt nice.

Me and my big boy swimming in the pool!

Dad and Flakes, Eric's uncle, talking away! Are we surprised.... nope! I love you Dad! You're the best and Gavin had so much fun playing with you! You were so good with him!
