Smarty Pants

Tyler was asked to take part in the Duke University TIP Program that allows students in the 7th grade to take the ACT. We knew going into this that being in the 7th grade he had not covered a lot of the material. They only asked that he do his best... We got his results back and he scored an 18 WOW !!!!! Mike and I have a brain child... If he didn't look so much like Nic and Matt I would swear that he was switched at birth.
I stressed over all of this more than Tyler did. On the morning of the test, I was worried about being on time- what should he eat- how will he find where he was supposed to be- OMG he is going to be around a bunch of High School kids- will they give him bread and water during the break... of course it all worked out.
When I picked him up I was an emotional wreck. All I wanted to tell him was how proud I was of him and no matter what I knew he did his best. I couldn't even talk I was crying so bad. I think that it was such a stress relief that it was over. All he wanted to do was come home and play the X-box.
Next time he's on his own...

Titans vs Colts Game - Dec 2010


We had such a great time at the Titans vs Colts game. Since the Titan's have not had such a great season, the number of fans have declined !!! However- since Peyton Manning and the Colts came to play, the stadium was packed. People have loved Peyton since his playing days at UT. I really think that every time Peyton came down field he was searching me out of the crowd- I also know that he heard me calling his name!!! Thanks Mike and Dave and Annita for allowing me to have my dream night.
