Thomas the Train

Tonight Robbie took Tate to ride on Thomas the Train and they had a blast. I told Robbie he had to take good pictures since I wasn't going to be there. They got to meet Thomas, Cranky, and Sir Tophamhat. They also had a petting zoo and a ton of train tracks. The boys had a great time while I attempted to take Lily shopping with me to buy a suit. I sure do love the terrible twos! We made it through and met up with the boys for dinner at their favorite...Olive Garden.

Chalk Talk

We have been spending time outside everyday when we get home. One of the kids favorite activities is drawing with sidewalk chalk. Their favorite time is when Nonny comes over because she can actually draw the things they ask her to. Yesterday, Lily had more chalk on her face than she had put on the concrete.

My Bay

Every night when we get home, Lily runs upstairs to get Bay. We have established parameters that she can not have it at the dinner table or outside. The picture is how I found her tonight deciding whether to drop Bay and go outside or stay inside with her best companion.

David Beckham

Tonight Nonny took Tate outside to play some soccer. He came running in the house to let me know how many goals he was scoring. He had learned to trap the ball and score goals. He was so excited!!!

Uncle Duck and Jaqi

On Sunday we drove up to Philadelphia, TN to see Uncle Duck and Jaqi. We enjoyed a nice meal with Jaqi's family. Even Bobo drove down from Cookeville to see the kids and Duck.

Bowlin' Babes

Last night Tate asked us if we could go bowling today. After a busy day of shopping, housecleaning and planting, Robbie, Connie, the kids and I headed to Galaxy Bowl to bowl a few frames. The kids really love it...believe it or not, Lily beat Tate by 10 pins. Just as we were finishing our games, Cosmic Bowling started. The lights went down, the music blared, and the disco ball turned. As we were leaving, Tate informed us all that we were supposed to stay and "Dance and Party" all night. What a trip!

He's Got Moves!!

Tate's favorite shows are American Idol and Dancing with the Stars. Apparently he has been watching them a little too closely because he has now started to add some hip action to his dance moves. If you remember, he was a breakdancer, but he has now added some hip-hop moves to the mix.
