Happy Birthday Gavin!

My Nephew Gavin turned three today. Over the last few months Gavin has really started to talk on the phone with me. We had a nice conversation today and I asked him how old he was. He insisted that he was turning eight. He has lots of nick names but the one that seems to be the most accurate is definitely Pig Pen. Despite his mother's best efforts if Gavin can get dirty he will. Here are a few fun things about Gavin Donald Brenier:

He has trouble saying the word truck. This often times leads to very funny and very inappropriate moments.
Gavin is multi talented and specializes in two types of business. Monkey and Naughty.
He likes to help mow the lawn. This is slightly problematic because he uses his sisters' doll stroller and sometimes forgets to wear pants.
He's three. I mean there isn't a ton I can say.But I do love my Gavin Basker.

Happy Birthday Gavin!

Random Sayings I Enjoy

"I don't work the way I work, train the way I train, commit myself and suffer the way I do when I've failed ... to yield control of my destiny to anyone. Winning or nothing. You get to a point when that's just the way you feel and you do whatever it takes." -Kobe Bryant

"You've got two weeks after finals, you've got a week of July Fourth and you get a week before camp starts," "That's a month that's probably more vacation then you get. And we're a little bummed out that we don't get three weeks?" "Go play intramurals, brother … go play intramurals,"
Viper: Simple. First you've acquired enough points to show up and graduate with your Top Gun class, or you can quit. There'll be no disgrace. That spin was hell; it would've shook me up. Maverick: So you think I should quit? Viper: I didn't say that. The simple fact is you feel responsible for Goose and you have a confidence problem.
You ask me to have lunch, tell me you slept with Elaine, and then say you're not in the mood for details. Now you listen to me. I want details and I want them right now. I don't have a job, I have no place to go. You're not in the mood? Well you get in the mood! -George
Hurts to miss that one. -Alex Trebek
