Have you seen the new dollar?

Middle Canyon~One week later

even though mommy carried him over the water he managed to get wet to his knees



Gavin found a heart shaped rock for Mi. He is so sweet. Chelsea was carrying him up this big rock and I was climbing behind them and he turned his head around and said "Be Cawreful Mi!!!!" So cute that he was worried about me.

We couldn't believe how much the leaves had changed in one week. Fall is here!!!

Walking for the Hydrocephalus Association~Team Carter

Saturday morning Chelsea, Gavin & I went on a walk for the Hydrocephalus Assocation.
We went to support this beautiful little boy Carter. He has the cutest smiles and longest eyelashes. His wonderful mom, Lara went to school & hung out with Clay & Chels and lived close by us in Stansbury. The walk was a huge success and raised lots of money & Team Carter took 1st place for the most people who came out to walk, and won 2nd place for the most money raised. It was so well organized & they had lots of fun stuff after the walk for the kids. We're so glad we went.

Gardner Village

We're trying to get in every beautiful day before the weather gets cold. Today we went to Gardner Village and saw all the witches that came out for Halloween.

Clay & Tara

Last night Clay & Tara started Baby Classes at the Hospital.(They said they think they were the oldest couple in there.) They have about two and a half months to go. That baby boy is growing & exercising in mommy's tummy.

Middle Canyon

Chelsea, Gavin & I went for a hike up the canyon today and a few of the leaves are already starting to change. We hiked thru streams, saw waterfalls & Gavie got to throw lots of rocks. We also collected some rocks for the new waterfall Gavin's daddy is building in their backyard. Also, Tom got to feel the baby move yesterday.

I got to feel the new baby moving!!!

Luckily for our family Tara doesn't seem to mind us always wanting to touch her belly. Well Saturday night when Clay & Tara were over little baby boy McCarty starting moving and I got to feel him. It is the greatest feeling. We are so excited for him to be born.

More Boo, More Big Bass

Clay went to Gavins house Fri night & Gavin had 2 pillows. Clay asked if he could have one & Gavin said No. Clay said I'll take you fishing for "heavy bass" if you share one, and Gavin said "Here, you take two". So Uncle Clay followed thru, brought worms & came over fishing Sat night. Gavin was a happy boy & will tell anyone that will listen "I catch Big Bass all by myself!"

Wed. is Gavin Day

Today I took Gavin to Story Time at the Library, then the playground & all he kept saying is "I want to go fishing at Mi's House". So we're sitting fishing and he kisses my hand and said "you're nice Mi, and I love you and pappa to let me go fishing". What a charmer, it's hard to say no to that.

Can you say BIG BASS????

No wonder Gavin is obsessed with fishing. He and Papa fished today and this is what
he caught on his Nemo Pole~Big Mouth Bass & a Carp.

Thanksgiving Point Day~Dinosaur Museum & Petting Zoo with Chelsea & Gavin

Chelsea & I took Gavin to Thanksgiving Point yesterday. He was a little intimidated with the Huge Dinosaurs & Sharks, but loved the Farm Animals.

New Name for this Blog

Good Morning. Since the Family Reunion is over I'm going to try and switch the name of this blog over to mccartyparty.blogspot.com or tomandpammccarty.blogspot.com. Not sure if it will let me, but in case you're looking at this now, then you try and look again next week and it's gone, email us for the new blog address. Hugs, pam

"A child fills a special place inside your heart...A place you never knew was empty!"

Gavin and his little Nemo Fishing Pole are still catching more fish than anyone else!

Coming Soon to a Hospital near you....About 3 months to go...

Clay & Tara registered this week-end at Babies R Us if you want to look at some of the fun baby things they've picked out.

Stansbury Days

This week-end was Stansbury Days. Always lots of fun to see everyone. Chelsea and her frog Sir Jumps Alot won the Frog Jumping Contest out of 42 entries.

QUOTE FROM THE ROAD

"Trips do not end when you return home~
usually this is the time when in a sense they really begin"

No More Family Reunion Information/Just grandbabies.

If you're sick of grandbaby pictures & fish, you may want to take this blog off your favorites, because from now on that's probably all you'll see. xoxoxo

Clay made it home from OKLAHOMA! We were all happy to see him.

Where did everybody go?

Gavin came over yesterday and couldn't figure out where eveyone went. He asked: Where's Gpa Bud's Heavy House? Where's Lacey? I miss her. Where's Gma Frances? Where's Hot Lips(Roxie)?
Thanks again to everyone that came. We had so much fun. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Next time I need my mood lifted I'm going to call Aunt Sandy and have her tell me some of her stories. I do have to apologize tho. She was being called a blonde because she told Roxie 100 people would be at the reunion. And I re read my blog & it does say "We are having close to 100 so they may be in shock when they get here." However in the sentence before I was talking about the weather. Even the guy at the hotel told Roxie "we haven't had this happy of a bunch in a long time!" Laughter is the Best Medicine. Hugs & Kisses. Glad you all got home safe. pam

Happy 27th Birthday Chels!

Gavin is one lucky little boy to have such a beautiful mommy who also likes to hunt bugs, frogs & fish! We love you. Mom and Dad
