Pics in BC with Dad's Camera

It's pretty neat that both Alison and I are moms at the same time. Our conversations have shifted away from "normal" things to discussing parenting and all that. It's like some weird parallel universe! If you click on the picture you'll see the totally non-flattering squints we both have - it was a sunny day! (Great shot grampa!)









Here we are, four generations together for one picture. It's pretty different going from being one of the young people at family gatherings to mom of the young people at family gatherings. We're not the first, my two older cousins (Kim and Ken) both have a boy. Our family reunions are soon going to be all about chasing toddlers and kids around again. That'll bring some new life to the party!


What a cute shot of our two Purvis men, newly "grampa'd". Yolanda did great for a few shots earlier, but she'd had enough! And of course the panicked look on Grampa Rick's face comes standard. What cutie pies!


Grampa Al and Evan always look great together!





Evan and I decided to practice our crawling on the pier at the lake.


A couple of happy boys. It's so great enjoying a great view together!




Evan is such a little explorer, it's so amazing watching his intense concentration whenever he encounters something new. It's also a little disconcerting for people he's meeting for the first few times. As a culture, we're not all the used to being intensely stared at!

Of course a little splashing was necessary. I know it looks scary, but I had an iron grip on my boy. Was really had to keep from laughing though. Evan's crazy about splashing, and it was a long way down to the lake!
