Happy Halloween!

We had a fun and busy Halloween! Blair literally wore her costume all day! She had a party at pre-school and ballet before trick-or-treating. After ballet we rushed home to get Blake ready and created his Darth Maul (Star Wars) costume. Worked out pretty good for my first real attempt at face paint and massive amounts of hair gel to create the spike look! We had some friends over to trick-or-treat with us. We had a dinosaur, cowboy, muscle man, ninja, and a bunny join us! We were quite the crew trying herd them through the streets. They were tired and loaded with candy when we returned. Our friends Jason and Kerby are here visiting us from Costa Rica. They were wonderful and helped answer the door while we showered our little goblins and got them into bed.






Pumpkin Carving




We carved our pumpkin last weekend. Dad did a great job! Blake and Blair didn't weren't very interested in the pumpkin. They were too busy playing together. Which is fine! I will take it when I can get it!


A couple of pictures of mom and dad with and me with the kids.

First UT Football Game

We took B&B to their first UT game this weekend. On Friday evening we went to the bookstore, visited Gen. Neyland and caught a Baseball Vols practice. Saturday we went to the Vol Walk. Blake and Blair loved the band and especially loved petting Smokey (the real dog). We visited some friends at their tailgate and headed to the stadium a little early to take in all the sites and sounds. I loved watching them experience all of the orangeness and answering every one of the 15 million questions they had! Also, enjoyed watching the Dobyns Bennett marching band at halftime. My little (not so little) cousin Jake plays in the band. They were fabulous! We met my parents after the game for dinner and they were excited to tell them all about their day. It was really nice to spend the day with my family and share something special like UT with my children. I always feel blessed to have grown up in east Tennessee and to call it home.





Pumpkin Patch




Blair's pre-school class took a field trip to the pumpkin patch last week. We had fun! She has a sweet class with lots of good friends. Two of her best buddies William who we go to church with and Caleb whose parents are some of our best friends are in the pictures.

First Day of Pre-School

Sorry It's Been So Long.

We have been busy around here! Hope you enjoy all of the posts!

First Day of First Grade



Blake started school on Friday! He has a great teacher and we are excited about a great year! The bottom picture was too funny though. Blair was barely awake, nobody noticed that the sign was upside down and the look on Hogan's face pretty much sums it up!

Great Clips of Hopkinsville-Now Open!

In The River


After we visited the family we headed to the Smoky Mountains. We kept it pretty low key. We swam at the condo, went to the river to a special little spot where the water is just right for splashing and playing and we took the kids to play putt-putt and ride go-carts on our way out of town.
