Happy Father's Day DAD!

This blog is dedicated to my Dad. It's a way to say "Thank You" and show my appreciation for all that he has done for me! Enjoy!



Thanks Dad for holding me and getting up in the middle of the night when I needed you. Thanks for being calm when Mom wasn't.




Thanks for hanging out with me on weekends.





Thanks for reading to me.




Thanks for feeding me...and then changing my diapers.




Thanks for taking me down to the farm and showing me all the tractors.






Thanks for taking me swimming, even when I didn't think it was such a good idea.



Thanks for sharing your food. (And thank you for taking care of me in the morning before work so mom could sleep in)



Thanks for taking me on outings like the Holidazzle Parade.




Thanks for pulling me around in the sled during the winter.




Thanks for going on rides with me when Mom can't.




Thanks for posing in silly pictures with me.




Thanks for showing me how to drive...ok maybe not yet.





Thanks for keeping me entertained when there was no entertainment.





Thanks for taking me Trick-or-Treating!





Thanks for playing toys with me.





Thanks for taking me sledding and encouraging me when I get scared.




But most of all, thanks for being the "Super Dad" that you are!

Love, Garrett & Mom

Parades, Cows and Tractors

Hi! I had a busy week. I enjoyed my first parade on Friday in Champlin. I enjoyed eating the candy I caught.
The sirens were very loud. I got a little scared. Went I got home from the parade, Mark and Mindi babysat me. Thanks guys for coming over so Mom and Dad could go out!

Saturday we drove down to the farm to see everyone.



Mom and Dad let me sit in the tractors several times.



Checking out the cows...




Sunday morning, I worked up the courage to go into the barn and see the baby cows.





I enjoyed watching the baby cows drinking their milk.




What can I say, it was a long weekend!






I don't get it, they say this is corn, but where's the corn?! I decided it needed to be harvested. Sorry Grandpa.

Happy June

Hello everyone! Here I am just hanging out one morning watching some cartoons


I love corn on the cob. I especially like to help Dad husk the corn.




I visited the Christenson's recently. We played so much, we all needed a bath to clean up.



MMmmm, push ups!







Lately, I like to put Mom and Dad's shoes on



I have such a cool name!

Happy May!

Happy May everyone! I've been busy playing in my backyard now that the weather is nice!




Earlier this month, I went with Dad to Madelia and got to visit Great-Grandma and Grandpa!





Me having fun with the packaging that came with Mom and Dad's new computer.



A visit to Hutch...come on grandpa FASTER!










Grandma Hall's Tulips






Grandma showed me the baby rabbitts that were nesting nearby



Mom & Dad decided to build me a sandbox.




Time to fill it up with sand!





I also got to see the trucks on display in Champlin.











The Halls came to visit on Sunday. Uncle Doug played with me in the sand box



I love it when Dad mows the lawn. I like to help.

The Bunny is Here!

Happy 2009 Easter everyone! The Easter Bunny hid my Easter Basket in Chase's kennel...silly rabbit!



Road trip to Hutch to see the Grandparents...me at the Crow River




We also stopped at the santuary and fed the deer, geese, ducks and birds!








Grandpa Hall got out his riding lawn mower for me. Unfortunately, I got a little scared by the loud noise and wanted off!





Meanwhile at home, I've been enjoying the warm weather outside. Mom even suggested I take a nap in my play house. Chase also thought it was a good idea!


No, I didn't really take a nap, but it looked good for the camera!




Let me introduce you to my "friend." Grandma Hall bought me this funny-looking guy. I like to give him a piggy-back ride, brush his teeth and play tug-of-war with him with Chase.



I even help him go down the slide



Everyone should have a "friend" like him


Now, back to Easter Celebration...here I am opening my Easter gift from Grandma Hall


Going to my Grandparents house means all new (actually really old) toys to play with. It doesn't take me long to make a MESS!

Note the corn on the cob! I have a thing for corn, so part of my Easter present was a cob of corn. I love taking off the kernels and scooping them up in my trucks.


Uncle Mark helped me find the Easter eggs

Found one!


The Easter Egg hunt didn't last long...the water barrel was way more interesting!




Here Grandma, I'll water your flowers!



Now for the videos..The Garrett Dance!



Learning to count...listen closely (sorry for the glare)


The Easter Bunny hid 2 raisins inside each egg.
