Does a father need an occasion to dote upon his daughters?

No, we're not trying to betroth one of the girls to Commodore Norrington, but they have been awfully cute lately. Particularly Caroline who continues to develop her little personality....or shall I say her big personality in a little body.

A couple of sisters (and a brother) clowning around one night before bed. Its nice watching them all have so much fun together.




Caroline's new thing....the kissy face!



The ever watchful (and excited) eyes of Gator.


Sweet girl.


Cruising one morning with the necessities: one of big sister's flipflops and the ever important cup of milk.


Ole' Bubba making sure everything is running smoothly in the morning.


Playing one of our favorite games, peek-a-boo with a hat from the dress-up chest.

Aliens are Wierd



One morning, out of nowhere, we noticed that we had a mushroom "crop circle" in the front yard. This circle was eerily symmetric, containing a few on the inside as well. The best we can figure is that some alien funguys landed their fungus shaped starship in the front yard one night and left the circle....next thing you know we'll be visited by huge vegetables that talk.....oh wait!

The Carnies

We took advantage of the beautiful early Fall weekend and went to the TN Valley Fair in Knoxville. As a kid, I remember Dad taking me there as TVA was a sponsor. I haven't been in probably over 20 years (wow that makes me feel old!). It sure was different than I remember, but I think Lily had fun and hopefully we made some special memories...
As you'll see below you'll never get a bigger smile from Lily, than when she's on the merry-go-round! But surprisingly she loved the Ferris wheel, too, which was funny considering Dave and I both were a little freaked out by it.
And we had to get a quick pic by the Mayfield cow...which has been a fixture of the Knoxville landscape for as long as I can remember. He usually sits out in front of their headquarters by the interstate.













Just thought this was cute.. Totally caught in the act!
