What a pretty sunset!

Sailor and I met Joe at the lake for little boat ride this evening. Of course, Sailor went fast asleep as usual while riding. Joe fished for a little while and Sailor slept all the way back. She did wake up while getting off the boat in time to see the beautiful sunset. She just kept pointing at the pretty sky so I had to get a picture!

Happy Birthday Blayke!

Sailor and I went to the most organized birthday party ever. My Best friend from high school's little girl celebrated her birthday this afternoon. There were every bit of 40 middle school kids in their front yard. Crazy, Crazy, Crazy. They first played balloon stomp where you tie a balloon around your ankle and try to stomp everyone else's balloon while salvaging yours. Next it was the 3 legged race followed by a game I am not sure the name of...groups of 3 tie a string with a carrot hanging on it around one team members waist. Then they are blind folded and guided by the other 2 members while trying to dip their carrot into a small bucket on the ground. Next a water balloon toss where Peyton and his partner were runner up and finally a pinata smash. I am sure I have forgotten some of the great games but anyway you get the picture. Needless to say Sailor and I were spectators for most of the events but she did get to try out the trampoline!

Sailor with the birthday girl!

Finally a win!!

Sailor got to experience her 1st UT game on Saturday night. Joe and I thought it might be a good game to try her at and Thomas was nice enough to give me my ticket back since he was going to be out of town. Sailor did great. She loved the band. She even got a shaker from a lady who always sits in front of us! I told her my sister would be highly upset with the shaker buisness since she is determined for Sailor not to be a cheerleader. We even got to do the touchdown cheer Sailor's friend Addison taught her! Sailor was very into the game through most of the 3rd quarter until bedtime came and she was fast asleep. We had a great time! She was a little more excited than the picture shows!

Catching up!

I have some catching up to do. I have gotten out of the habit of blogging partly because it is difficult with Sailor being that she loves electronics. She can't stand it if someone is on the computer without her right there with them. She has gotten so mobile and is just walking around everywhere. Here are a few cute random pictures.

The other day Sailor was being very quite back in the dormer window where her toys stay. I walked around and caught her! She had unloaded her book basket and was sitting in it instead. You can tell by the grin she was so proud of herself!

I can't remember if this was just a bad hair day or if daddy had styled it that morning!

A weekend of Birthday Parties!

Happy Birthday Holden and Addie! Saturday we helped celebrate Holden Moore's 5th birthday. We found our way to "The Creek" in Oakdale thanks to the great directions from Holden's mom Megan! It is out in the middle of no where but let me tell ya...It is an awesome place. Sailor loved to watch the big kids going off the giant slide and zip line into the creek. She wanted in on the action but will have to wait a few years at least for the zip line! Holden racked up on all kinds of fishing gear, clothes and best of all his very own 4wheeler! We had a great time!

Sailor and Sawyer having some lunch!

Fishin in the paddle boat!

Sailor loved the little picnic table, just her size!

Thinking of a good wish!


Sunday Sailor and I helped celebrate Addie Richards 1st birthday! Suzanne and I can't believe it has been a year since we were planning and getting ready for our two girls. They are both getting so big and it is so fun to see them play together. Sailor and I had so much fun at Addie's party. Addie got all kinds of great toys and especially the bag full of unique goodies from her Aunt Lee Ann, the world traveler!

Addie loved ripping into her presents!

Too Cute!

Not sure about the taste!

Love the crown! Fits great Rod!

Lee Ann and Sailor playing with the best part, wrapping paper!

Friday night boat ride!

Friday before last Pop got his boat fixed. We decided to take a ride to eat at Arrowhead restaurant. It was a great ride. Thanks Pop!

Pam and Nana!

UT vs. UCLA :(

Last Saturday we cheered on the Vols at Eli O's house. Sailor got to wear her brand new Go Vol's cheerleader outfit. She looked very, very cute despite the loss. We had a great time as always visiting with everyone and seeing all the new babies! I think it will be very interesting in a year or so when all the kids can actually play together. Can't wait to see it.

Ready for the big game!

Daddy's in action...Joe and Sailor, Donnie and Maddox, Jay and Eli, Mithell and Noah!

She looks like a natural, so excited she had to hide her face with a pom pom.
