Look Rock..Another eventful outing!

We headed up to Look Rock the other day. It was a nice little hike...perfect for the boys. It was a lot of fun and we really needed to get out of the house and get some fresh air! It went great until Luke slipped into the caged area that held the stair case that went up to the "tower". He was on his way up the stairs when Chad noticed. I grabbed him through the bars and walked him back down the stairs. We tried to get him out, but his head just would not fit back through the bars! We tried several different openings. He was getting frantic. Finally, chad found a bar that was bent slightly and got his head through there! I just knew they were going to have to cut the bars away to get him out! Things are never uneventful with our boys! Nonetheless we had a great time.

Let it Snow!

Snow was in the forcast for last week....but, it never really came! Ethan had his camo hat and gloves all ready to use....but, never got to! Hopefully we'll get some for Christmas. We are going to Gatlinburg tomorrow night for our Christmas with mom. Maybe we'll get some while we are up there. We are excited to get to see all of the decorations up there. We've never gone at Christmas time with the kids. They will love it.

Goodbye Sadie

Well, last night we said good-bye to Sadie. She is such a sweet dog and Ethan loves her so much, but, we just could not get her housebroken. Ethan doesn't know she's gone yet, so SHHHHHHH. I kept her outside for a few days once I knew she had to go no matter once....he kept asking where she was and why. But, it seems like he's forgotten for now. I know it'll come up...but, hopefully it'll be easier this way. She went to a good home with a little girl who lost her beagle a few months ago. So, she'll be happy.

Christmas at Fort Loudoun

Today, mom and I took the boys to Ft. Loudoun for Living History. It was pretty cool. There was military activity, an 18th century church service with carolling, and lots of indian and soldiers that stayed in character the whole time. I told a little boy, he was about 5 or 6, that he was a good actor...he said, "I'm not acting, I really live here!". It was cute. We had a good time and we learned a lot. They boys got to see the canons and a huge gun fired. Luke wasn't too fond of it...it was pretty loud!
