It was my dad's birthday Sunday and the family took him out to Macaroni Grill. first time since April for Batman to be around my dad. there was a huge effort on both sides to make peace and get along so i'm proud of them. Its been ackward these past several months for me to take avery over to visit my parents simply because of the beef going on between my Dad and batman but I'm thinking it might have been settled and put in the past. still would be nice to hear an apology but I doubt that'll ever happen. Just want everyone to be able to be friendly and not say hateful words. life is short, my father is getting older and I dont like having the grandchild stuck in the middle of a family fued. Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday Avery's Grandpa!

So so true and it's good to see them both making an effort. It is always hard for us - being a daughter, wife and mother.

Good Job Avery's Mom, good job...stay positive and wish you all the best.

Hey - Happy Birthday Grandpa :D

You know men - them sitting in a room together not fighting is tantamount to an apology. I'd consider this a victory and move on to other big things, you know, like a new baby. =)

Happy Birthday Avery's Grandpa!!!!!!! Very cute Pic!

I must say that I know how you feel in attempting to attempt to keep any 'family' gathering a peaceful one...... It always seems so unfair to us to have to be the ones to KEEP reminding everyone to PLEASE just get along for the short time being.....I could go on and on........................
Avery look so happy with G-Pa!!!

She looks like so much like your siblings!!! Everyone says the same thing about Abigail...that she looks like such a "Gaither"! But I totally see Brent in her, and maybe you totally see Batman in Avery...it just cracks me up that she looks so much like Roman and Rory! I love those cheeks!!!
