"Tucky Fried Chicken"

This afternoon we were on our way to Wal-Mart and I am not sure of the coversation but Tucker responded , "OK Mom, Tucky Fried Chicken understands." Can you believe he is comparing himself to KFC? Just thought it was cute.

After the jack-o-lantern...

An afternoon with the "girls"

Brooke and Bailey Grace came over Saturday afternoon to help us make our jack-o-lantern. We decided to do a lite bright jack-o-lantern. Bailey Grace and I ended up doing the pumpkin while the others played. Thanks for all your help girls!

Happy Birthday Papaw!

Saturday was my father in laws birthday. We decided to spend the day with him. We first took him on an adventure to Mason's Maze in Greenback. We all enjoyed a hayride to the pumpkin patch to pick out the perfect pumpkin, face painting, and pictures. We spent the rest of the afternoon playing, eating hamburgers, and birthday cake at Papaw and Grammies. Yes, you got it, we made Papaw miss Football Saturday to go to the pumpkin patch. We had a GREAT time. Happy Birthday Papaw! We love you!

Happy Birthday Doc!!!

This afternoon we celebrated my grandfather, "Doc's" 87th birthday. He is such a wonderful grandfather. I cannot say enough about him. He and my grandmother has 3 children, 6 grandchildren, and now have 6 great- grandchildren. My grandmother passed away in 1997 from lung cancer, but Doc has held strong and has kept his family together. Thanks Doc for always showing me the importance of family. Most of all thank you for loving Tucker and Rylee so much. They think the world of you, well until you put on the Obama mask. HA! Happy 87th Birthday! We love you!

Painting Pumpkins

Doo and Nannie Russell took Tucker and Rylee to the Methodist Church a few blocks away and let them each pick a pumpkin. On Thursday Doo let them go outside and paint their pumpkins. They had a fun time and their pumpkins look wonderful on the front porch.

Our Resort

When we decided to go to Disney World we chose to stay at the Pop Century Resort. Yes, it was a value resort but a wonderful place to stay. We got much more than we expected. The resort had a several restauraunts, 3 pools, 2 splash pads, gift shop, and an arcade. They even provided bed rails. The staff was AWESOME and the place was spotless. We were very pleased with this resort. Thanks Aunt Jennifer for setting all this up for us we had a wonderful vacation. We also give thanks to the Lord for giving us the opportunity to take this trip and that he kept us safe.

Final Day at Disney World

We are exhausted by now... We decided to hang out at Magic Kingdom ALL day today. We began with breakfast at the resort and loaded the bus headed for Magic Kingdom. We waited at the castle for about 30 minutes and had front row seats to the "show". The kids loved it despite the hot sun. We also rode Dumbo, It's A Small World, and Buzz Light Year. We also enjoyed several shows. We toured Mickey's house and played on the playground for a little while. We headed over to Crystal Palace for a late lunch with Winnie the Pooh and friends. It was a great lunch and wonderful entertainment. As we were eating dessert I said to Jeremy, "We have not taken Rylee to see any princesses yet." I asked the waitress where the princesses were and we wanted the shortest line since Ry is really not into them yet. She handed me a piece of paper and told me where to go. She said, "This will take you to the front of the line to see Cinderella, Belle, and Sleeping Beauty." It really did!!! Each princess spent about 4 -5 minutes talking to her and getting pictures made with her. It was amazing! They begged Tucker to come up and let them kiss him but that was NOT happening. Rylee fell in love with all three princesses. However, Tucker and Jeremy seem to think this place was for girls. Tucker told Belle, "He liked Power Rangers better." This experience ranks right up there with Tucker seeing the castle for the first time.
