Overalls

When we were in Gatlinburg we got Ray a pair of Overalls, we got him 18 month and thought he would never fit in them. Saturday I decided to try them and oh my did he look cute! They are a little long but other than that they fit fine. He wasn't to sure of them at 1st but he got used to them..


Here are some other pictures taken Saturday night in his way to cute and way way to big colts pj's. They were given to me by a girl I worked with and she couldn't wait to see Ray in them. I think we need to put these away for a little while...



I have to tell you all a very funny story (I'm sure it was funny to us cause we heard it come out of his mouth) Sunday I cut Alvin's hair, which I use the clippers for, so we decided to do it out side, Ray was out in the yard and we were on the porch, Ray walked up a little ways, stopped and was looking at us, he mumbled something and stopped, then clear as day he said "OH MAN" (something he has just picked up) Oh my did Alvin and I laugh. It was so so funny. Just thought I'd share.
Bye for now!!!

Not much of anything!

Hi there, not alot going on hear since my last post. We went to a 4x4 truck show and Hog Roast on Saturday. The truck show was kinda neat, with the exception of the parking lot triple parked people (there was 1 area that was triple parked with about 5 cars in the middle) and guess who was one of the cars in the middle....if you guessed us then you were right! I was SOOOOOOO mad, and of course I had to use the bathroom and we didn't get our hand stamped to get back into the truck show, so the attendant had to take me up to the gate to explain the situation and see if they would allow me back in, thank goodness they did, so while I was in there I got a couple bottles of water because Alvin and I had nothing to drink. Their "solution" was to make an announcement telling that the person parked in our lot with this licence plate # had to move there car immediately. They never showed but someone else did and we were able to inch by inch get the truck out. Alvin said that next year he and Ray will go and leave me at home. That, I think will be fine with me. The Hog roast is always fun! A family friend has one every year, everything was very good, and Ray had fun getting dirty and just being able to run around. Its always great to see people we haven't seen since last year.
This was getting ready to leave for our busy day...(we dont make a habit of letting him stand on the table)

Boys will be boys, (even with beads around his neck LOL)


Ray in his 1st bounce house, he liked it but never stood up...

Howdy partner...how cute is this..

Hope you all are doing well.
Bye for now!!!

1st Hair Cut!

Well I took Ray to get his hair cut tonight! He was such a good boy! I asked Alvin's mom to tag along with me for moral support, ya no I get kinda emotional when it comes to things like this! She also was able to get some good pictures of it. He kinda whimpered some but he never really cryed (neither did mommy)! The girl that cut his hair was really good, she was fast and did a good job. Cookie Cutters came highly recommend to me and now I recommend it also!

Bye for now!!!

I interupt this book so I can blog...alot

I guess I will take time away from the book New Moon so I can blog! I started that book and I cant seem to put it down unless I have too! (In case you have been on the plant mars or better yet the moon ha ha, that book is from the "Twilight" series)Anyway, we had a great time on our vacation to Tennessee, Ray did very well except for eating! That boy was BAD BAD BAD!!! He wouldn't sit in his highchair (and for the sake of all others that were trying to have a peaceful meal, we gave into him) and he wouldn't just "sit" in the booth, he had to be standing and he even liked to put his butt up on the table (we put a stop to that)he threw a crayon in the booth behind him, luckily there was no one in the booth. But other than that he was very good!
We left Friday night and stopped right outside of Louisville, we had a really nice room that had a king size bed that Ray LOVED! He had so much fun on it. To our surprise the hotel had an indoor pool that we went and used that night, and I didn't have my camera, but Ray was jumping off the side and having a great time! We headed for the cabin Saturday morning. Stopping by Cumberland Falls in Kentucky. That was so pretty, I didn't think I had been there before but after being there I remember that Alvin's family took me there when we were dating.
Here are some pictures of our time there Saturday...

We got to Gatlinburg late afternoon and we just went to the cabin and stayed there the rest of the night. Sunday it rained pretty much all day so our outdoor plans were void. So we went to an indoor mall and drove around looking at stuff. We got in the hot tub every night, Ray loved it, we turned the heat down so it wasn't to hot for him but it was still warm.




Monday we spent at my favorite outlet mall in Sevierville. Man I love that place. Then Tuesday we were in Gatlinburg. We took Ray up the Sky lift! He was stiff as a board at 1st, then he enjoyed it! I road up with them, then on the way down I got in the swing in front of them so I could take some pictures.




Here are some more from our trip...

I told you he was Super Ray..


This is the mountain that the cabin is in...
We decided to head for home on Tuesday night so we could break up the trip for Ray (and its fun to stay at a hotel)Ray and daddy enjoying the king sized bed....

We had a great time and cant wait to go back! I had to go back to work on Thursday but Alvin was off the rest of the week, they went to the park both days.


We went to a wedding on Saturday. Congrats to Dana and Dani! It was a beautiful wedding and all Dana's hard work paid off in the end. Sunday we stayed home, we watched Jess and Brandon for just a short time until grandma & grandpa picked them up.
Now that I have taken lots of your time, I think I will go now (I have a book to read ya no LOL) Hope everyone is good and I hope to not stay away this long again!
Bye for now!

Tennessee Bound!

Well my next post will be from Tennessee! We are leaving tonight, we are going to stop on the way down there because we cant check into the cabin until 3:00 Saturday. Alvin would like to stop at Cumberland Falls. He used to go there when he was younger and really enjoyed it, so he would like to take Ray, and I've never been before! We are taking our 50 year old lap top (but it works and that is all that matters) so hopefully I will post while we are there! (I just found out that the cabin has dial up, so maybe I wont be posting to much) For those of you that don't know my sister has a cabin in Wears Valley TN which is very close to Pigeon Forge. We really don't have any major plans, but we will be there until Wednesday. I am just so so excited. This our 1st real trip as a family! See you all in TN!
I cant post with out a picture or 2 or 3 so here you go...
Peeking at the dogs, though a hole in the fence...
