Eli's Latest Haircut

Well, we took Daddy and Eli to get their haircut yesterday and we had it cut short. His hair grows so fast that we opted for that instead of leaving the shaggy look. He looks so different, but so cute!! Hopefully, you will be able to tell from these pictures.

Pictures of Eli

My friend Priscilla came out to the house last week to take some pictures of the little man!! Here is a little taste! I haven't developed the black and white pictures, yet. So, more to come!!

Silly Boys!!

Today, Eli's friends Easton and Trevor came over to play and Easton discovered a new thing to do!!

A Monday Morning Tradition

Every Monday morning Eli and I wait for the garbage truck!! This week, we waited outside for 30 minutes. Eli love, love, loves the garbage truck!! Maybe he will grow up to be a garbage man???

Good Morning!!

When I went in to get Eli this morning this is what I found. I heard him talking in the monitor and figured he had waken Mason up. What he does to wake her up is take off her blanket. She has her pillow and a UT blanket that she somehow cuddles in. So, Eli pulls it off of her and says "Sissy awake!!" Pretty funny!

I don't know if you can see what he is laying on, but it is Mason cuddled back into her blanket. Shortly after I took this picture he pulled it off again and said "Sissy awake again!!"

Eli's First UT Football Game!!!

Last Saturday, John, Eli and I went to a football game and had a blast! It was also homecoming and they have an alumni band play and John got to play!! He really enjoyed playing since it has been almost 10 years since he marched with the UT band! Anyway, here are some silly pictures from the game!

Pre-game

Go Vols!

I thought this was cool that I got a picture of a touchdown!!

Here is the alumni band marching out at half time. They are in the center in the black ponchos.

After each touchdown, Smokey runs across the end zone along with the Volunteer!! Eli loved watching the puppy!!We played Louisiana, so we pretty much creamed them!! It was still fun watching all of the touchdowns! Eli loved it when the crowd got all excited! I hope we can do this again next year!!

Halloween 2007

After our picnic, we went back to Carrie's house, let the kids play and then ate some "scary" dinner!! Then, it was time for Trick or Treating!! Even Lucky participated in the dressing up!!

Eli quickly caught on that every time you go to a door you get candy!! He and Emilee and Kenzie would take off to the next house while Jolie carried on a conversation with the person who last gave her some candy! It was too funny!!

These next few pictures aren't so good since it was so dark but these are two houses in our neighborhood that really went all out. After Trick or Treating in Carrie's neighborhood we headed home and specifically hit these two houses. Eli loved playing in the haunted castle with the little boy who lived there!! He could have stayed there all night if we would have let him. We still have to drive by the houses once a day!! Well, until they take the decorations down!!

Halloween Picnic in Cades Cove

On Wednesday, Carrie, Tricia and I took all of the kiddos out to Cades Cove for a picnic and some fall fun. The kids had a blast just playing in the leaves and on this hill next to our table. I was amazed that we were there for three hours and they never got tired of where we were!!

Of course, we had to bring trains!
