little stinker

Gavin has been opening cupboards for a while now, but this was the first time he climbed into one. He pulled out all my tupperware and containers, threw them on the floor, got out of the cupboard, and put all the containers back in. Funny. We put latches on the cupboards a few days later :)

for auntie tt and uncle carse

Hi Auntie TT and Uncle Carson! Gavin was SO excited to watch his new movie you gave him while we were home. Isn't his face funny!?
Thanks for the entertainment (for Gavin and for me - haha). We love you!

canada

We got to go to Canada for a quick trip at the beginning of January to go to Sean's farewell and see him before he headed off to the MTC and then to Tokyo, Japan!

We flew up with my sister and her family. It was Gavin's first plane ride, and he did great! Slept the whole way there and the whole way back. Thank goodness it's such a short flight. Look at all these cute flyers!

While we were in Canada, we had lots of fun and got to see lots of family. Gavin got to see his great grandparents for the second time and got to play with his second cousin, Devon - they were born only 3 days apart!

We loved spending time with Uncle Sean! He is the best! Gavin loves him (and his guitar.) We're going to miss him for the next two years, but we're so happy for him and proud of him, too. He is going to be one good missionary!

Elder Sean Harushi Crapo and his cute, cute family! (I wonder how different this picture will look in two years when Sean gets home.)

Christmas day

We spent Christmas Day with Ryan’s family. Got up early to be out there for breakfast, opened presents, ate good food, and just spent the day playing and relaxing. All of Ryan’s family was able to be together. It was a fun day!
