Go Big Blue!

Anderson attended his very first Farragut football game today! Well, he was at about 15 of them before he was born but this was his first appearance in person. I realized that I grabbed the "old" poms (the smelly, gross ones that have been in the rain too many times) after I let him roll around on them.

These are my children-I have 17 of them. Well, 19 if you count Chloe & Gabs (or 18 if you leave out Chloe....). Seriously, I love these girls. I knew nothing about cheerleading when I started and now I am pretty much an expert. They are just so sweet & smart & remind me all of the time about how life should be fun. I have big plans for pictures like this when Anderson is older. Seriously, how cute will his senior football poster be if he plays football for Farragut? It will be ridiculous the amount of pictures that he will have on it. And, if he doesn't play football then he will just look back on the pictures and see what a stud he was at an early age.

Despite the fact that he always looks shocked in pictures, he really doesn't look like this in real life. Today he wore his Teddy themed outfit, complete with safari hat! In case you didn't know, Teddy Roosevelt went on safari after his presidency & a lot of the animals in the Smithsonian are a result of that trip. But, of course you knew that because everyone knows worthless presidential trivia.

Just being precious.

Jessica's family got him this robe & I shocked even myself at how cute he was when I put it on him. He was too interested in his hand to get a good picture.

This is one of the results of JCP photo op #2. This was about the closest we could get to a smile.

Sometimes you're just going through life, living in South Carrick dorm & then this new friend goes to dinner with you and your sister at a really gross Japanese place on the strip. Time passes....lots of memories involving eating, sharing, crying, lots of laughing...and 10 years later that friend sends you flowers on your 1st mother's day! Thank you, Emily! You are my favorite!

On an unrelated note, the tylenol in the picture was ridiculously hard to find because the name brand was recalled & EVERYWHERE was out of the generic. Thanks to mom for finding it at Food City. This is still about Emily, though...Love you!
