Bridge Series

We are starting a bridge series. The idea started when we were in San Fran on the Golden Gate. We took some pictures of ourselves and we love them. We are now doing that same thing on other bridges. It will be neat to look back at these pictures and memories! Here are a few from our 2nd set. These were taken in Waco, Tx on the Suspension bridge.

The beautiful bridge

Gavin - fishing and the taco barrels

We got to take Gavin fishing for the first time over the holidays. He absolutely loved it and was interested for about a good 30 seconds. He did like the casting part but was not so into the waiting for the fish part :). It was a cold day and the fish were a bit lazy. I was determined that he was going to catch a fish though so we stayed and waited. Gavin was walking around a bit while we were waiting on the fish to bite. He happened to find a cockaburr bush (taco barrels is the way he pronounces it). At first we was scared of then because they were poky but then he loved that they stuck to his clothes. He even brought a collection back to show Nana. So in the meantime I am still trying to catch a fish for him. Greg is walking aorund the field with him and playing with the taco barrels. We finally did get something to bite and he caught his first fish!! It was a catfish and it was a nice size one too. He thought it was awesome but he was scared of it. He did finally touch it on the head though. We had a fun time! Hope you enjoy the pictures :)

Gavin and the ducks

So we were out at the park this past Saturday shooting some pictures with Santa. After we were done we took our boys for a walk down by the pond. Gav and Fin like to look at the ducks. Well evidentially Gav had to go potty and these pictures tell the rest of the story.

realizes he needs to potty


pants drop FAST! so fast that i did not have time to react.

thinks it is hilarious that he almost peed on the ducks

still trying to get them.
Those were some lucky ducks! It is pictures like this that are priceless! Definitely keeping these for when he is older... :)
