Go Vols!!

I may want to wait till tomorrow to post this one. At least then I can say if I like their choice for head coach. Despite the coach, being at this place was something I had always wanted to do. It was great and we even won this game.

Aunt Boo took lot's more pics but these were my favorites.

Since I mentioned the beach.

God in his wonderful providence had us make plans in February to take our first vacation since our children were born. (yes that means we had not taken a vacation in over 8 years.) There were plenty of times after the fire that we talked about not going. I'm so glad we went. It was a chance to just be a normal family for a week.

This was my Sunday morning santuary. It was the only morning I got to sneak off by myself.


Our cute little beach house. You can see in the other post that we were just steps away from the beach. Thank you so much Mr. &Mrs. V for making it affordable. We've already reserved our spot for this year, see you in about 190 days (not that I'm counting)

My mom will want to kill me for putting this one in. But I wanted to get the word out about these chairs. This was so nice. She could not have enjoyed the beach w/ out it. If you're in the area, you can find out more about them here.

Mi & The Kiddos @ the home of the "throwed rolls".

This was our fun night out. One thing we learned is go early. We waited over an hour that night. Fortunately there was lots for the kids to do while we waited.

My history buffs couldn't be kept away from the civil war fort. But next time I'll wear more sun screen. Unlike our local historical sites there was no shade.

Like every good family we did have a beach photo shoot but, I'll have to do them in a different post because it only lets me do 5 pics at a time.

Fishing, I just don't get it.

But they sure do. I'm still having issues w/ adding& moving pics. So I thought I would play around w/ it some more. This summer both boys learned that, like their dad, they have a love for fishing. While we were at the beach Big C took each one on a special fishing trip.

Here's Big C& Little Guy on his 1st fishing trip.

This is on Big Guy's day.

After we got home all the boys talked about was going fishing again. Big Guy got his chance at the Scout's fishing derby. As a special surprise Big C got him his own tackle box.

He is so proud.

Big C & Big Guy before the fishing derby.

I guess this this means at some point I'll have to go w/ them. I told I don't mind as long as I can bring a good book. :)

My favorite kiddos

Here are a few pic of my favorite kiddos. I took these inte back yard at Nanny's.

These 2 were easy. Just cought them while they were playing.

These 2 had to pose a little more.

This one was the toughest. But it is a really goo one of all of them.
