About Me Book


This is Henry's About Me Book he made at school this past week. I got the biggest kick out of it and figured I would share it with you since most of you are family and always look forward to the latest "Henryism" via email.


Henry now thinks it is neccesary to smile and say cheese in this manner. It is quite entertaining. He is a solid boy and less than 2 feet shorter than me now.


He captioned this book with the prompting of his teacher. None of these foods he said were his favorite are his favorite. I am puzzled by his selections...especially the "sauce". Oh, Henry.


He was right on the money with this one. We own almost every one ever made. It is an impressive collection, I must say.

 
This is truth. Henry loves his toy bobcat and wants nothing more right now than to ride in a real one. We are trying to find someone at church or someone we know in town who has one. I never in my life thought I would be trying to find a bobcat to ride. Oh, Henry!

Henry's captions on the follow pages made me laugh outloud. Please click on them to enlarge them so you can read them better. I just took what photos I could grab quickly to school for this project, so, if you are left out, do not take offense, please! I was a little unaware of what all the book would entail, to be honest.


This page was my most favorite ever, in the history of ever! I had to call Daddy to read it to him. It was taken at Hollye's house in summer 2011 and there was no fire truck toy present at the time. How this caption came about, is beyond me! The one of Henry and Papa on top of the page is priceless.



I love the photo at the top of this page because this is the photo Henry tries to have us draw all the time on his etch a sketch. He always knows which one is "Maffhue" because it is the tallest stick person.
Cherishing and trying to remember all the little things that come out of Henry's mouth is my pursuit these days. Each new day opens the door for new material and precious memories. I love all the things about him and think his book is perfect!

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
