The Many Hats of McRae

Our buddy has an obsession with hats.  Color, shape and size are of no importance.  Unless, of course, it fits just right.  It either has to be way too big or way too small.  The obsession started this summer and it's been going strong every month sense.  Here's a chronological view of his months of hats.

JUNE

This is probably where the hat obsession first began.  Cousin Tucker's hat was just right!

 He just couldn't get enough of himself in Dad's hat.  Unfortunately, this hat has been damaged beyond repair and is now part of our dress-up collection.  Dad needs a new hat.

JULY

Representin' SNAP fitness.


Boots and a cowboy hat found at Nana and Papa's.  Apparently, that's all he needed wear that day.

 And, we take skin care seriously around here.  This hat was simply to help protect  him from the sun while working with Dad in the yard.

 AUGUST

This hat was lovingly donated by the Wright cousins.  Notice the boots.  Mix-n-match...any hat goes with any boots.  Simplifying at its finest. 

 This is Papa L.'s Indiana Jones hat.  But it doubles as a train conductor hat, too.


SEPTEMBER

Papa L.'s hat and boots make for a good time.


 

Ahhh.  Another cowboy hat found at Mima and Papa's.  This guy can't get on a horse (real or pretend) without a hat.  Those two things just go together, don't ya know?

OCTOBER

And the hat made famous in our Halloween post earlier this year.  This beauty was one of his most prized birthday gifts.  Let's just say that we're definitely getting our money's worth out of that little expenditure.  

NOVEMBER

And doesn't he just look as handsome as ever in this beautiful garden hat made by his cousin, Shay.  Don't let the serenity fool you, he can still wield a mean light-saber while wearing such a masterpiece.

This boy loves his hats.  He wears them to the store, the library and to bed.  He's tried taking them to church too, but we drew the line there.  Sad day.  It's almost impossible to find a picture in our collection these days that doesn't include him wearing some type of hat.  Oh this boy...heart-melter, I tell ya!
