Look below...

Ok...I finally got my post done from the other night...it took me awhile to download the pics since my internet is still not 100% for some reason! Makes me a bit angry when my internet doesn't work! Anyway...the post is few below since I had started on it the other night and wasn't able to finish. It puts it in order of where you began working! I also posted another one from a family visit to Lake Gaston this past weekend that posted below too!

All Smiles...

Ok...THANKS to Mandy, I can post today:-)!!!! I had these few pics on my cell phone that I thought were EXTREMELY CUTE and since my internet was down last night I couldn't blog about what I had planned! So...here are a few "All Smiles" pics of Tucker...the 1st was taken at the Watermelon Festival this past Friday night...Tucker thinks that he is a "cool kat" with his sunglasses on and the 2nd one was just a random day when I had Tucker, it had rained that day and all he wanted to do was wear his "Rain/Mud/Gum Boots" and stomp around in the water...he thinks that he is something in those too!

Hopefully my internet will be back up tonight and I can post as planned. And if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can post my cell phone videos, please let me know so that I can share those. I'm gonna try to remember to ask my computer guru hubby tonight...LOL!

Thanks again Mandy for your help!

HELP!

Can anyone help???? Since my internet was down last night at home when I went to blog for today I decided that I would post a few pics and videos from my cell phone so I forwarded the pics and videos to my email. Well, now I evidently need to change the format of them inorder to post and can't figure it out...can anyone help???

More from the weekend...

Tucker's 1st car washing experience!!!!

In action after Mommy!!!!

Stripped all down after the soaking!!!

The reason for the car wash....the finished product!!!

The initials!!!

Whitney is a die hard Virginia Tech fan (b/c of Charlie)!!!

And Whitney's a softball player too along with Kevin and I!!!

I think that this should do it from the weekend...Saturday night Whitney and I decided that we would wash her Tahoe. I couldn't believe that she agreed...LOL! I have been after her to put on an initial monogram that I had given her for Mother's Day and a Virginia Tech decal that I had gotten her and then she had an Uppercase Living softball like the one on my 4 runner. So...FINALLY we got them put on after we hurridly washed the Tahoe since dark was approaching (needless to say we didn't do that great of a wash job BUT all that matters is that the back glass was clean and the decals are on)! Whitney NEVER washes her car, she always gets a local family owned station to do that for her! Anyway...it was quite a FUN experience washing the Tahoe with Tucker...I laughed until I cried b/c he was so into it as the pictures show! I was busy washing when I heard Whitney yelling "Michele, HELP....Tucker is after me with the water hose"!!! I couldn't help, it was way too funny and I surely didn't want him after me!!! He SOAKED her all by himself and had the best time doing it! He was chasing her around the car until the water hose got hung up and jerked him back and he was just a LAUGHING the entire time! I finally got the hose from him after getting myself together and stripped him down b/c he was SOAKED too!!! What an experience!!!

Happy Birthday Theresa (Monday, August 4th)!

July 4th Weekend at Bugs Island 2008

Christmas 2007

Happy Birthday Theresa! For all you bloggers, Theresa is a very special person to myself, Kevin, Whitney, Charlie and Tucker. We came to know Theresa in 2005 thru our Dad and we have been close to her ever since! We think the world of you Theresa! Hope you have a wonderful day and may there be many more to come!

Family Visit at Lake Gaston

2nd cousins...Whitney, ME, Melissa, and Laura

Tucker and Watkins (Melissa's little boy...he just turned 1 on May 1st)

On Saturday morning, Mom, Whitney, Tucker, and myself got up fairly early and traveled to Mom's cousin's home (Phyllis) at Lake Gaston. Mom's Aunt Zane and her 2 girls were visiting from Tennessee so we had a fun filled day of visiting and eating for the most part. Our visit was a little short since Mom had to be back in Franklin for a wedding at 5 PM. It was good to see relatives that we don't usually see every year.

Watermelon Festival

Everybody but Mom (she's behind the camera)!

Friday night, we (myself, Whitney, Tucker, Mom, and David) decided that we would check the Watermelon Festival out in Murfreesboro (the same one that Shelley and Kelly posted about last week). It was just us since Kevin and Charlie were camping with the boys for the weekend in Climax, VA (that's become a tradition for them the same weekend every year). Shelley and I went Friday for lunch (it's become a tradition) and boy was it hot! And I can say the same about Friday night...HOT HOT HOT but oh so FUN! The plan was just to check out the craft vendors and listen to the band and we did BUT Paw-Paw and Tucker saw the rides immediately so Tucker and Paw-Paw ended up riding a few and boy did Tucker LOVE it! He did not want to leave the rides! Boy are we in trouble for our county fair next week, I have a feeling that's where we'll be most of the time...LOL!
