My first day of school!

I am a new student at the Pre-K Center and I love it! We do all sorts of fun things. I love my new teacher, Mrs. Norton. Her para-pro is Mrs. Horton! But, we call her Mrs. H so it won't be too confusing. I am learning new things and having fun at my "big boy school." We went to the Open House and I didn't want to leave! I had fun dressing up in real fire-fighter's uniform. Mrs. Norton's husband is a real fire-fighter! I had fun playing in the "kitchen" with my friend Aubrey. Mama took me to school the next morning on August 10 for my first full day. I was such a big boy and love my new Ben-10 Backpack. If you aren't familiar with Ben-10, he is a boy named Ben Tennyson who can turn into 10 aliens. He lives on the Cartoon Network. I love him!

My cubby at school! My cubby has a key on it. I find the key to know where to put my backpack.



Playing dress-up in the kitchen with my classmate Aubrey.



Check out my Ben-10 backpack!



My mama is proud of me!

I loved going to the Dentist!

I got rid of all my sugar bugs! I went to the dentist for the first time and had a great time. What was really cool was that I got to watch cartoons while I was there on a flat screen tv. Mama said all she got to look at when she was little was a map of the world (Gigi, G-Daddy, Aunt Courtney, and Uncle Eric will laugh when they read that :)
Anyway, I digress.
My best buddy Wyle (Lyle Richardson) went with us and he videotaped the event. Mama took pictures, and I felt like a movie star. I really had a good time, and especially liked "Mr. Slurpee" which sucked all the water out of my mouth. I wanted to do that over and over again!
When we got home, I had fun "playing dentist" with Mama and Daddy as my "patients."

Happy 4th of July!

We had a really fun 4th of July at Lake Blackshear in Cordele, GA with our wonderful friends Charlene and Lee Hall, and Miss Sylvia, Mr. Chip, Ivey, Railey, and Pam and Roy Oliver and their three cute girls - Sarah, Rayden, and Alison. Mr. Lee and Mrs. Charlene have a beautiful home and it was all just too much fun! Here are some pictures of our day together spent on the lake - swimming, eating, and riding on the boat!












At the Movies with Wyle!

I just love my friend Lyle "Wyle" Richardson who is my 11 year old neighbor down the street. Mama took Wyle and me to see Ratatoille, and we had a great time. If you look closely you can see Ratatoille (what I call the rat!!) sitting with me watching the movie with us :) I also wore my Ratatoille t-shirt that Mama bought for me a the Disney Store in San Antonio!

The Braves and a visit to San Antonio

Mama and Daddy enjoyed a visit to watch the Braves lose in Atlanta with my Uncle Greg, Aunt Brenda, cousin Alison, and Alison's boyfriend Trey. They had a great time together especially since Daddy got them awesome seats IN THE SHADE! He was the hero! After the game, Ali took them all to a restaurant called "Six Feet Under" which is across from the cemetery where Bobby Jones of golf fame and Margaret Mitchell of Gone with the Wind fame are buried. Since our grandfather was a mortician, we knew he would have been proud of us for paying our respects - ha :)



Goofy redneck Braves fans were everywhere. This one let Mama take his picture -




Mama and Daddy then flew to San Antonio, Texas for a meeting he had there. It was our second visit to the city and to the Riverwalk. They enjoyed the scenery and ate way too much Mexican food.

They shopped at the marketplace and visited one of the best restaurants in town, Mi Tierra, where they got serenaded. They also enjoyed the Riverwalk, and there is a video below of it if you have never been there. It is very pretty but the water is not-all-that. At the Rivercenter Mall, Mama ran into her first cousin Craig Vincent from Lucedale, MS and his wife Dena. SMALL WORLD! She really enjoyed catching up with them!

Mama and Daddy flew back to Atlanta, then drove to Birmingham to GET ME! I had a GREAT TIME with my Aunt Courtney, Uncle John, and cousins John Neil and Rachel who live in Columbus, MS. Aunt Courtney got a special gift from San Antonio that was made in Mexico - imagine that! Thanks for playing with me so much and doing such fun things with me, including learning how to PARTY LIKE A ROCK STAR!!!!

Diver Dan goes to Destin

I had so much fun last week visiting my grandparents in Lucedale, MS! Mama and Daddy didn't have as much fun as I did, as you can tell from the pictures. They had to go to the beach without me, which doesn't sound like much fun at all, if you ask me.

We met G-Daddy and Grammy at Crestview, FL at the McDonald's - I LOVE McDonald's! - and they had air hockey!!! Then we had ice cream with G-Daddy and Grammy and I told them I wanted to go to their house...and they said okay!!! YEA!





Poor Mama and Daddy were stuck on the beach in a little shack on Seagrove Beach that belongs to our friends Aunt Angie and Uncle Robin. They said they had fun with them, but I don't believe it for one second.







My Daddy is certified in scuba diving and he and Mama went out in the Gulf so that he could dive and Mama could "bubble watch" - :)







They learned that it is a tradition on diving excursions to serve fresh pineapple between dives. My Daddy had never tried fresh pineapple before, but now he loves it. Mama even bought him a handy-dandy pineapple cutter like they had on the boat!



This was the divemaster on the boat - he has been diving for almost 30 years!



Here is my Daddy jumping in the water for his second dive of the day!!!

Here are my Mama and Daddy with Mr. Robin and Miss Angie - about to go to Baytown Wharf in Destin without me - sounds boring without a wild 4 year old to keep them company!





Mama and Miss Angie took a walk on the beach the next morning - without me, of course. How sad for them.



On Mother's Day, Grandbob and Papa and I came to rescue Mama and Daddy from their misery. We met at Cracker Barrell in Crestview. Daddy got to see his Mama on Mother's Day! I had a GREAT vacation with my grandparents. Maybe Mama and Daddy will have more fun this summer when they can take me places. Hang in there, Mama and Daddy!

Me Tarzan!

I love TARZAN!!!!! Mama even made me a "loincloth" that I regularly wear around the house (Mama won't let me wear it to school!) I like to run around like Tarzan and show my muscles. Also, Tarzan was adopted JUST LIKE ME!!! Even Superman was adopted :)

I'm with the Band!

This weekend is Titon's "Love Affair" Arts Festival (named because it started on Love Avenue!) Last night was a picnic in the park with a live band, and guess-who was up on stage performing with them! I made Mama really jealous because I found several women (Yes, Women) to dance with! I am a flirt + a good dancer = dangerous combination!!! :)
