American Culture at it's Best!

 Our kids have official been properly cultured.  We went to a Tennessee football game!  They had so much fun (and we did also)!
 

 
 It was the start of my "Roomie Reunion" Weekend.  All four of us had not been together at the same time in over 11 years.  Our group has certainly grown a lot since then.
 
 The original four :)  We sure did have a good time catching up and remembering all kinds of stories.
 
 One of the four couldn't make to the game for obvious reasons (baby coming any day!) We thought it was so funny to see that after all these years we still have similar tastes in things.  We all live in different parts of the country, but showed up independently with nearly the same shirts on.  How ironic!  Out of all the shirts out there, we would choose these.

 Now, this little girl did not see a single play during the entire game.  Everything was about the cheerleaders, and how strong those guys were to throw them in the air.  You cannot imagine how excited she was when they cam e up to our section of the stadium.  She was so excited to get a picture with one of them.
 

 We had a little party for Kelly and Brian to celebrate their upcoming wedding.
 Booms Day!  What Labor Day weekend would be complete without some fireworks by the river?

 We also went swimming and relaxed with friends on Monday.  Benjamin was in heaven with their dog.
 
 We, of coarse, had our normal homeschool stuff. The kids are very excited because this year, I have added a "fun class" in the afternoons and we rotate the subject.  So the kids are getting to learn all sorts of things like P.E., art, and sewing. So far, Regan's favorite is art (those are her pictures that she has painted hanging on the refrigerator) and Benjamin likes sewing.
