Grandpa Gasser Comes to Visit & Bethany Walks!

So WAY back in October, Grandpa Gasser came to stay with us while he was taking care of some business with the condo in Bluffdale. We were so excited to have him come and stay and we had such a good time. Emmett kept asking to go into the basement to look for Grandpa for several days after he left, and he still asks us if we remember when Grandpa Gasser came to visit.

Emmett loved reading stories with Grandpa.

It snowed the first week of October, giving Grandpa a chance to go outside and build a snowman with Emmett!

They named the snowman "Snow Boy". Very original, I think.

Bethany took her first shaky step toward Grandpa on the day that he arrived in Utah, and the night before he left she started walking in earnest! We were so glad he could be there for such an exciting moment!

We spent a lot of time having Bethany walk back and forth between us, and she was so thrilled and proud of herself. I tried to capture the excitement on her face, but my camera is just too slow to do it.

And of course, here come the videos! She was about 16 and a half months when she started walking, just like her big brother. :)





 
Here's a proud girl, smiling up at her big old grandpa!

We tried to get a picture of Grandpa with the kids before he left, but it was a little tricky since they were somewhat less than cooperative!
