I'm FAMOUS!!!!

Heather and I headed to Knoxville at 5a.m last Sat for a quick trip to Knoxville to the TN vs.UCLA game!
Robert and Tracy were unable to go with us because they are in CA.

Tailgating pics.....


Me, Heather, Caryn and Alisha..

The guys that were about 3 rows up from us.....earlier in the game when we actually did think we were on camera and were cheering we turned around to see that it was these guys they were getting...lol.


4 seconds of fame...on ESPN!!!! After years and years of trying to get on t.v....I finally was and didn't even know it at the time...until we along with the girl beside me started getting tons of texts saying "you were just on ESPN!!!".....funny enough my mom was actually recording the game at home for no reason really...so this I took a picture of us on the tv when we got to see it later. Pretty Cool!!!!

BLOGGING OVER DUE!!!!..Ooops...

Ooops...I meant to publish this one first!!!!!



Ok...people!!! After my computer was in the shop for 2 weeks...us being gone to beach...then moving(I didnt blog that by the way).....I am back NOW! I am backing up my blogs to were I left off....the first of August! I have been working on these for the past several days so that I could just publish everything up to now at the same time! So just to warn everyone...there are about 15 blogs coming...lol!

First Story Hour

Mary Kate went for her first story hour Monday at Rhea! And we were able to take Jameson too since I was keeping him that morning. Arent they sweet...walking in together!



So BIG!!


Getting their picture made in front of the school bus!


Mary Kate and fellow playgroupers playing before Ms.Donna rang her bell.




Jack and Jameson sitting next to each other on the carpet....they miss seeing each other as often!


Jameson painting his yellow school bus



Mary Kate painting her bus....


She looks so big here!!!!

Amber and Jack cheesing....and CEK chewing on her apron...ha!


We all got to go for a school bus ride...being that it was "school bus" week.....Mary Kate was not so sure about it at all....


Two sweet boys!!

Katie and Caroline getting ready for the school bus ride to start!!!


Singing "the wheels on the bus" while on the bus ride......


Mary Kate was pretty overwhelmed the entire ride.....but it was fun for her...maybe!


We joined back with our playgroup pals at McDonalds for some lunch and playtime! I have missed not hanging out with my old playgroup pals....but hopefully now we will see more of each other!!

First Day of Pre School

I truly can't beleive 4 years have already flown by and my baby is going to pre school now!!! I know next year will really be tough! Campbell all ready to go in the car...on the way to her very first day to pre school(only girls that day) at Holy Cross! She was so so excited!



Standing outside the door...getting ready to go in! We went in...and their were so many things going on she got a little bit nervous for a couple minutes...but after washing up, finding her name that she was here...and putting her bag in cubby....and then of course giving me hugs...she took Ms.Angies hand and walked right off to find something to play with! My heart melted!! I wanted her to do that and to have no issues...but at the same time it was so sad too!!!


Campbell had so much to tell me when I picked her up from preschool!! She had the best first day!! I was so so happy for her! I know she is going to have a great year!

Tracy and I decided we would take the girls to Paulettes that day for lunch..before we took him to the airport.

I think Campbell was tired of all the picture taking...she wouldn't look at me here while she played her leapster.


Mary Kate LOVES tomatoes...so she was cramming them in her mouth here! I'm sure people thought how gross...but I thought it was funny!



It's Football Time in TN!!!!

It's finally here!!!! Its TN football Time!!! We headed to KNoxville for the first game this season with my brother Robert and his girlfriend Heather. It was a beautiful warm Saturday for the game opener!

Robert and Heather before the game.....he hated me taking pictures of him!


Tracy and I.....and actually pretty good looking picture!


Me with my baby brother.....


Watching new coach Lane Kiffin walk the Vol walk for the first time!


I take this picture just about every year on the first game...because i am so excited to see it!! The running through the Power T is one of the most exciting pre game things to see!!!


Henry Counties own Marsalis Teague...#10



Great first game.....Big win over Western KY!

Titans Game....

We were very lucky to be given some Titans preseason game tickets!!! Tracy and I had a great time!!!! They were excellent seats...pretty sure we could slap players hands when they came out!

Destin 2009

We booked our traditional Destin vaction last November(almost 10 months ahead)....and I didn't know if it would ever get here!!! But it did....and we got to go with our great friends Alisha and Justin(and new baby Aubry who turned 3 mos there)...and Caryn and Andrew(and new baby Kimsey who was only 7 weeks). We all stayed in same place but separate condos...hopefully next year we will be able to do a house!!

I really had intentions of blogging vacation per day while there...but it didn't happen!!! So now the pics are all together...but should be in order...I think!

Campbell and Mary Kate in the seats ready to GO!!!! Destin...here we come!!
