Movie and Dinner

 The boys love to watch movies outside during the Fall.  They don't care how cold it is!  They have dinner, watch a movie and roast marshmellows - does it get any better?!?! 

No More Training Wheels

 Bryan has been begging us to take his training wheels off for the past six months.  Of course Chad and I kept telling him, "you aren't ready....we will soon".  It was Chad and I that weren't ready!!  We wanted to keep him "protected" for just a little longer.  On October 10th we took them off for him.  He hopped on his bike and road down the road!  Chad had a hard time keeping up with him incase he fell.  He didn't.  He was ready and he knew it.  Now he keeps trying to talk his older brother into trying his bike without "baby wheels".   He loves to challenge Drew. 

 And off he goes!!



A few random pics...

Rocky Top Tennessee

Chad and I took the boys to Knoxville Tennessee to watch a football game.  On our way up to the game we stopped and bought some Vol gear.  We are so glad we did...EVERYONE was wearing ORANGE.  The Vols fans are very loyal to their team.  Neyland Stadium is gorgeous and sits right by the Tennessee River.  There were lots of houseboats and tailgating going on.  Their were 90,000+  fans at the game and towards the end of the game we finally got to hear how LOUD Neyland Stadium can get.  The game with UAB went into overtime and the crowd started cheering - the place shook!  It was amazing.  We can't wait to go again next September and cheer the GRIZ on when they play the Vols. 

Kennedy is THREE months!

Wow, where is the time going?  I no longer have a newborn...Kennedy is an infant now!  She is such a good baby - who LOVES to watch her brothers and squeals in delight.  She is going to make sure she has a voice in the household!!  Her smile is amazing - the boys love to see who can make her smile and giggle. 

Bry Bry turns FIVE!

My "little" Bry Bry turned five on September 16th!  He got to celebrate with cupcakes at his school - which he thought was awesome!  Having 18 other kids singing Happy Birthday to him made him SMILE from ear to ear.  All he wanted to do was go camping in the backyard with his family...so we went and bought a new tent and marshmellows!!  We had a great night watching stars fall. 

SOCCER

Drew and Bryan are playing soccer this Fall.  They love it!!  Drew has practice on Thursday nights and he plays two games on Saturday at noon.  Drew is starting to get a little more aggressive - he is our "calm" one!  So we are proud of him for getting in the mix and kicking the ball!! 

Bryan has practice and plays two games at 8am every Saturday.  In his first game he scored two GOOOAAALLLSSS!!!  He was so excited (and so were we)!! 

Chad helps ref Drew's games - which is a workout!  He has decided he wants to help Coach next year and the boys are pretty excited about that.
