Thanksgiving Play

Today, Cooper's 1st Grade class put on a Thanksgiving program for their families.  First, they had a dress rehearsal for 3 of the other 1st grade classes, the principal and assistant principal.
Cooper was an Indian in the program

Rocky Top

Our friends from NC came over for the final UT home football game of the year.  We tailgated from 9am until the game started at 7:30pm!!  We had a great time catching up with each other, eating, playing games and watching other football games on TV throughout the day!
our set up for the day!
 no tailgate is complete without corn hole
 of course, the boys had to throw the football around too
 we took a stroll down the strip to walk off lunch!
 then, we headed back so we could watch football, eat dinner and head down for kick off
 the sun went down and it got cool!
 never fear, we had a fire pit too!

 Smokey was wrapped up in his blanket again this week!
It got COLD - we had on 2 shirts + a thermal shirt, jeans + thermal pants, fuzzy boots + socks, gloves, a toboggan, and heavy coats!!
 Me and Jessica in our twin toboggans!
Although the score wasn't what we wanted, we had a great time spending the weekend together again.  I'm sure they'll be many more days like this in our future!

BRRR!

The temperature was a frigid 25° this morning.  The kids bundled up in their brand new coats.  When we raised the garage door, we found that it had snowed a little overnight!
