Oh, Henry

 You can always find our little Henry looking for Jim. He is our neighbor. Henry is obsessed with him. Poor Jim. He cannot get a moment's peace when he is outside. Henry is waving through the blinds and yelling "Hi Mr.Jim!" over and over in this photo, while watching Jim unhook his boat from his truck. It makes me laugh. I am glad Jim likes him. It would be sad if he didn't.


 We are not real proud of our Hogs right now, but we will keep on plugging for them anyway. Juju sent Henry this adorable jersey in the mail. He would look at the TV and say "They like me mama!" with great excitement because their shirts looked like his. It was the cutest thing ever.

 Look who decided to put on his daddy's dirty work boots?! This is the first time  he has done this successfully on his own. He is getting so big.

 Henry goes to Monkeynastix every Friday. We enrolled him in this fun program at  his school. He loves it and calls it "Monkeyastix"..he drops the "n". It is a new learning/exercise program that was started in South Africa. We are excited to have him in it. It helps with his large motor skills and seems to be a lot of fun.

 This is the look I get from my castle building boys. They are like "not the camera...AGAIN?!"  I love how Henry tries to be just like his daddy already. It is so fun to watch. I think Randall would like a moment to himself every once in a while, but he would never admit it. He lives for this boy. Henry will literally stand outside of the shower and say "Hey daddy what you doin?!" over and over.. Poor Randall...he and Jim can't catch a break!

 Henry loves wearing his "pack pack". Why does every small child pronounce it this way?! It is so adorable. He was wearing it to the truck. We were off to see Nana and Papa last weekend. He loves going places. He would stay on the go all the time if he could.

Being at home is nice though. Henry loves playing outside and helping his daddy do work. This was his first time to help mow. Randall even let him steer for a while and the yard looked rather funny because of it. If you know Randall at all, you know he must love Henry a whole heck of a lot to let him mess with his grass!

It is never dull or boring at our house. These pictures were all taken in the last week. It amazes me to think of all the memories we are making and it sometimes scares me to think that I won't remember them all!

A Blind Date & Leaving Comments

8 years ago today I met this sweet man in the picture above. We met on a blind date in the Bluff City (aka- Memfrica). He and I were simply going out to shut up his stepmother and my sister, who had decided that we were meant to be together from one simple fridge photo and a dog named Abby. Little did we know they would be able to pat themselves on the back for the rest of their lives . I am so glad we both agreed to go out for that one date on New Years Eve 2001 because I have had him in my life everyday since that crazy night at my cousin Hollye's back door when he arrived to pick me up to find a baby on my hip that he thought was mine. I remember those beautiful blue eyes and how they about popped out of his head as he stood at the door wondering why no one had mentioned my child. That baby on my hip was Claire. She was 1 then and had just gone number 2 in her diaper right before he rang the bell. She had Styrofoam all over her and me from playing in Christmas boxes. Needless t

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go
