Our true Alaskan daughter. I just got my bear rug back today. It took the taxidermist about 10 months to get it done. I shot this bear last May in Homer, Alaska. Gavin was a little bit weary of getting on the rug; more pics of him when he builds up the courage. Ava, on the other hand, made herself quite comfortable.

Stay away from my sister...
I was a good boy and you better not take my lollipop away...

Daddy's little girl, and grandpa's little girl, and ...
I think she's winking at the camera. My shotgun is loaded and in the front closet. Boys, watch out!

I forgot to load some pregnancy photos of Jen. What a beauty. This was taken about a month before Ava was born.

She's here!!




Ava Marie Weaver, 6lbs, 14oz and 18 inches long. Jen went into labor about midnight Sunday and at 8:06 A.M. little Ava was born. The delivery went great and Jen is feeling okay. Gavin loves his little sister and can't stop giving her kisses. He's having a hard time getting used to Ava "biting mommy." As he says, "No bite mommy."
Otherwise, everything is going well. It was only -9 when we brought her home. Not awful weather (-40 when Gavin came home from the hospital). Anyway, hope everyone is doing well. We will be sleep deprived for the next few weeks, so call whenever. Love you guys.

~ Justin, Jen, Gavin and Ava

Reenlist

Looks like I'm going for another 4 years in the Air Force. This is a picture of me reenlisting with our vice wing commander, Colonel Horton. My first 3 yrs and 2 months have gone extremely well. I won seven base-level awards, four Major Command (Out of 9 bases) awards and several other accomplishments that I won't go into. God has been awesome to Jen and I, and the Air Force has been good to us too. Jen is officially due with our baby girl March 17, but we expect her anyday now.

Moose alert!


Looks like I've got some competition in the photography department! Jen took this photo at her work (child development center). Moose wander all over base and this baby calf and her mama decided to stop by the daycare center.

Pavehawk helicopters




I took these photos about a year ago but never posted them on my site. They are of a Pavehawk helicopter on a combat search and rescue training mission. Included is a picture of a Pavehawk helicopter getting refueled in the air. Awesome stuff!


It was 32 below zero as the crew of this A-10 performed final checks on the aircraft before it took off. You can see an F-16 taking off in the first picture. One of the main perks with my job is that I get to take pictures of anything I'm interested in. Today, I wanted to learn more about how these Airmen operated in such cold conditions ... and I get to see awesome aircraft up close and personal.

Gavin loves his dog, Sally. Lately, Gavin enjoys putting Sally "Nite, Nite," as he says. He'll cover her with every blanket and pillow he can find. Today, Gavin just enjoyed using Sally as a pillow.





As you can tell, Gavin is getting so big. He is going to make quite the Rugby/Soccer player!! We were quite worn out the other weekend, and crashed half way through the day...


Some photos from Gavin's b-day party. He had a lot of fun!! His "girlfriend" Lala, is next to him on the left.
