It has been too long since I posted any Eli pics and for this I apologize. We met the Truett clan at Brooklane park a few weeks ago but I lost the camera for a while. Luke "found" it yesterday. 

BOOYAH!!!! Eli getting silly at the bottom of the slide. 

Luke had a cold on the day we went to the park. Thus the blank stare. 

Just hanging out with my Homie. 

This picture is for Sam. I know you will be proud to hear that he loves the piano. 

Lukes got the baby blues real bad. Earplugs not included.(unfortunately) 

Taylor Hicks eat your heart out. 

On Easter morning Luke recieved a Basket O' Airplanes. (Ailleens! Pronounced closely to "Arlyn's" but he was in the Navy so how he made that connection I don't know, hmm, maybe "Aliens!") 

Ask Luke what an airplane does and he gives you this move along with a big growl. 

You could say that he was excited. 

Add your own "Top Gun" quote here. 

I'm not sure what this is about but it is the most incredulous look I have ever seen. I get this look from Mandy all the time. It says, "In your dreams buddy." 

Luke showinng everyone that he has a pair. (Of plastic eggs, dirty minds! Sheesh.) 

Warning; Public Menace!

Please click the header to read the article about the menace who is free on our streets. Be sure to heed the final warning, do not look him in the face, for fear of a face rocking!(McSweeney's is so funny! I check back there every week for great humor.)

I Love Kids

While I'm posting video off youtube anyway (which I can't believe worked!), I had to put this up as well. I remember my own reaction to getting my dream toy. Those were the days. Of course mine was my cable modem 2 years ago but my reaction was much the same as theirs. I can't wait till Luke can give me one of these reactions.

10,000 Days

Okay, Tools new album comes out on May 2nd. The single has been released but isn't being played in our town, the video isn't finished, what is a fan to do? Go to Youtube of course! Check out this fan made video. It is really high quality but kinda long.

Almost 6 months to the day from the accident, Mandy got on the lawnmower and cut the grass! No, it is not the same mower but talk about guts, mom is awesome. When I thanked her for cutting the grass she said the most powerful thing, "I wasn't cutting the grass, I was cutting fear and self-doubt out of my life." No truer words could be said. 

Easter Card material. Mandy was especially proud when the developer at Walmart told her that they couldn't make copies of professional prints. Mandy showed her our driveway in the backgound and admitted to taking the picture herself.Maybe mom should go pro. 

I decided to risk the grass stains and lay him in this flowery patch of our overgrown grass.(Which we cut this weekend, YAY!) I think it was worth it for this picture alone. 

From the Blooper reel. Too bad the Iris never made it into any of the good pictures. Luke ripped it to shreds shortly after this picture.
