The Growing Gant Family...

We headed down to CA for my brother's wedding and had a wonderful time with the family. It's always hard for me to leave, especially now that I have William and I see how much my parents enjoy being around him. I am so thankful for every visit! William was to be my brother Chris and new sister-in-law Amber's ring bearer. He let his little stubborness shine through and wouldn't even put the dress shirt on we bought him (the little stinker!). So, mom walked him down the aisle with his dress pants and tee. I think maybe he'd make a great ring bearer in about a year or two... Here's how our trip went... We flew into L.A. and stayed at my Grandma's place for the night. The next day was her birthday so we met up with my parents and celebrated with family. Good times for sure. This was a momemt William was having with my Aunt Debbie that I just happened to catch on camera (o: While in L.A. William also got to spend time with my cousin Brende...

So, I'd like to introduce to you Mama and her new little boy (William wasn't interested in being in the picture this time) (o: Yep, that's right. It's another little boy! We are very excited to spill the news that we will be expecting a little brother for William! Happy Birthday Grandma Marsha (her birthday is today) You get another grandson (o:

It's tradition...Grandma Marsha lines the street in front of her house with chairs set out for the 4th of July parade in Molalla. She's got the perfect house to view the parade from. Of course, we thought William was going to be a little more into the parade this year (particularly the part where there's candy thrown at you), but he maintained his reservations and enjoyed the few pieces of candy mom or dad ran out to get him. It is definitely going to be a fun childhood tradition for William (o: Sitting on the curb with Grandma Marsha Hangin' with Mama and buddy Deanna Watchin' the parade with Daddy Playin' in the pool with Kennedy!
