Uncle Dave

Uncle Dave (Kim's brother) flew in from Arizona for Christmas. He left this afternoon and Nathan already misses him. Why??

Uncle Dave was great fun when it came to the stacking toy!


He is fun to snuggle with!


And everyone laughs when he holds Nathan on the Wii Fit... cause the Wii says they're the overweight limit!


He's a real girl magnet!


And a silly aim with the nerf gun!

He does lots of silly things, like tipping Nathan backward to make him laugh.

And racing the car through Gramma's kitchen

Then there was Uncle Dave's Christmas gift from Jacob... watching them try to make a tennis ball mortar work was funny. They poured in 4 times the recommended amount of lighter fluid and it still wouldn't work.

They tried and tried... so maybe tennis ball mortars aren't something Uncle Dave is good at....

Nope... still no good... no need for those ear muffs, Uncle Dave!

But Uncle Dave IS good at the guitar! He gave Nathan his first guitar for Christmas, too!

And tried to show Nathan how to "play" it

And Uncle Dave is REALLY GOOD at sharing his bag of "friendship" (potato chips)!

And he's great at sharing a bottle with his niece, Faith.
And at sharing a scarily funny face with anyone in sight!


But he's not so good at trying to hold BOTH his neice & nephew at the same time. Then again... that's relatively impossible!


He is, however... REALLY good at the wii hula hoop and teaching Nathan to shake his bootie!


So you can see why Nathan is in love with his Uncle Dave. And if you spend even a little time with Nathan & Faith, you know why Uncle Daves is in love with those kids, too! They're lucky to have such a great uncle!
