Rock and Roll!!!!

Gavin LOVES to play his guitars - especially while we are playing guitar hero! We might have a little rock star on our hands.... watch out David Cook!

Happy Birthday buddy!










What a fun weekend we had celebrating Gavin's SECOND birthday! I can't belive our baby is two years old!!!! The whole weekend was perfect, and we are so thankful that all of our family could be there with us. Gavin is so blessed to have so many people who love him so much (not to mention spoil him rotten!) He loves all of his gifts - he plays with EVERYTHING he got! the weekend was even complete with a guitar hero tournament, which Krista won - we'll have to have a rematch!!!! :o) Thanks you again to everyone! Hope you enjoy the pictures!!!
by the way... ever since we sang Gavin happy birthday - he has been wanting to do that every night after supper. He asks to light a candle and then sings "Happy to you, Happy to you" then blows the candle out - it really is too cute!

We had soooooo much fun celebrating Gavin's birthday this last weekend. Thank you to all of our family that came and made his day so special! I can't believe that two years has gone by since he came into our lives! It has been so much fun - he is such a blessing! I'll have to post pics later, but we got some cute ones!!!!!

YAY for magic eraser!!!!

this is a totally random thought, but I just had to share my exciting news....
I had given up all hope that I was going to be able to get all of the crayon off of G's high chair - he loves to color there, but doesn't always have the best aim ( and/or also thinks it funny to color the tray.) today I decided I would try the magic eraser.... it came off NO PROBLEM!!!! So there you go - yet another problem solved in the Wulf household! Wow - what I get excited about sure has changed over the last two years!
By the way.... I finally got the invites for Gavin's party in the mail... so they are on there way!

Happy 80th Reuben!




Here is Ellie and Gavin all excited for our "cruise" home from Morristown!


and then here and Ellie and Gavin about 5 minutes into that cruise! They slept the whole way home!


We had a great time with the Krause family on Sunday to celebrate Grandpa Krause's 80th birthday!

The MN Zoo!!!!




getting ready to go to the zoo - gavin insisted on wearing his hat and sunglasses!



that's me and Gav, (I'm wearing pink) right up front as the shark goes by!


Bryan and I love going to the zoo every year (well at least I do!) and it's even more fun now with Gavin. He loved looking at all of the animals - I think his favorites were the monkeys, the shark and the dolphin! I thought the new grizzley bear exhibit was very cool too! He also had fun at the farm, where he fed goats and got to see some more familiar animals. The day was pretty hot - so we were all pretty tired by the end of the afternoon. Gavin slept through most of supper, but woke up in a really good mood and excited to go swimming at the hotel. We spent the night in bloomington and then headed to Morristown on Sunday - it was such a fun weekend!

Fair Day!





We took Gavin to the Kandiyohi County Fair on Friday evening. It turned out to be a really nice night! We had fun trying different foods (G especially liked the chocolate ice cream cone!) He even played a carnival game of pick the duck... not too complicated, but it did wind up in a little turtle prize. We even got to watch the sunset on our walk back to the car!

Happy 1st Birthday Owen!

What a cool pool!


Gavin just loves his cousin!!!



Happy Birthday little Owie!!! We had so much fun at your birthday party - I can't believe you are a year old - we love spending time with you and watching you grow and learn so much so fast! Can't wait to see you Saturday! Love you little buddy!

Our week at Lake Florida!











We had so much time with our family at the cabin last week! Gavin and I spent a lot of time in the water, but he also enjoyed going in the boat, throwing rocks at the shoreline, roasting marshmallows and eating smores! He was spoiled with popsicles, orange floats and suckers too! He had fun playing with Owen and staying up late every night. We were lucky to have Krista and Shane there for the weekend, and Lauren and Ellie and Nick came up to swim too. We got to spend the whole week with laurie, Eric and Owen - what a treat for us to see so much of our Owie! The weather was perfect, except for the morning Bryan called early to inform me we were in a tornado warning! when I looked outside, the entire sky was very green! I woke everyone up and we got the crawl space all ready, but luckily didn't have to go down there (yuck!), we kept the boys happy with milk and cherrios while we hung out in the bathroom until the storm blew over - that made for an interesting morning. Overall we had a great week, and it just reiterated how much Bryan and I love the water!!!!
