Who are those tattoo kids???

We went to the waterpark today and we had to get tattoo's before leaving. Tanner had to get the Pirate flag and Jordan, well I'm not sure what to call his other than his whole back!!! Ok, not his whole back but almost.

Camp Comer

Can you tell this little guy missed his big brother? Jordan left on Sunday, June 14th to go to Boy Scout Camp at Camp Comer near Mentone, AL. He was gone all week and came home Saturday, June 20th. Jordan had a wonderful time while there but I did find a letter that he never mailed. He was telling us how homesick he was and that he wanted to come home. I sent him a small notebook so that he could do a little journal each day of what he did. I was reading it and he said "Thursday night is parent night and I really hope mom and Terrell are planning on coming. I want them to come and take me home" on another day he wrote "Even if mom and Tanner can't come, I hope Terrell comes and takes me home" Do you know what this did to me??? Good thing he didn't mail the letter :o) He was glad he stayed and he said he did have a great time and learned a lot. One thing he didn't learn was "Hygiene in the Wild" Pew Wee he smelled bad.

Happy 5th Birthday Tanner James!!!

Ahoy there Matey! What would we do without our Mrs. Mary??? She is a lifesaver. We had our Pirate Party at her pool and there were at least 65 folks in attendance. I think this was our first year to not have gobs of food, drinks and cake left over. Tanner really enjoyed himself and the party seemed to be a big hit for the landlubbers as well. This pic was Tanner's "real" boat. Tanner told Mr. Ron from day 1 that he had to build him a "real live" boat for his party. Mrs. Mary found this one and saved the day. . . . . . and saved Mr. Ron too :)

All of the kids and some adults too, got to swim and then chow down to some good ole pirate grub and grog. Mrs. Joley Barnes did our cupcakes and treasure chest cake. They were both such big hits and I think she may have walked away with some new customers. I know we will be repeat customers.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this day very memorable. We love you all!!
