It's Halloween time here at the Walker House and last night we finally carved our pumpkins. Gideon had fun but wanted to play with the carving knives. Of course we didn't let him. We all had a good time and I now have to give respect to my dad because carving pumpkins is not easy work. I carved the pumpkin that looks like Spongebob Squarepants and Vanessa carved the one that looks like a spider-web. Gideon was excited to see them this morning when we went to school. We're excited for Halloween to get here. For me it's just to eat whatever left over candy we have, and see Gideon in his Halloween costume. Well that's all I've got for now. Oh, and the Kansas shirt is a hand-me-down. Hope everyone has a great week.

Sorry for taking so long in posting photos and news, but I've been very, very, very busy lately. Things have been crazy around work, so I haven't had an opportunity to post anything. So today I'm posting the photos that Uncle Charles sent me, or at least some of the photos. I didn't want to post them all. I'm also posting photos that Nan 'T' took when she came up to stay before going to Jonesborough. Here's an update of Gideon. Some of you know that he was feeling sick this past weekend and even jammed (we think) his big toe. Well he is feeling a lot better now and is back to walking again. For a few days he wouldn't walk because his toe was hurting him so bad. He's running around fine now. Well that's all for the time being. I'll try to post more when I get the opportunities. Hope everyone has a great day.

It's been another fun weekend for the Walker family. This weekend we had Uncle Charles and Aunt Bev along with Nan 'T' and Papa Walker come visit us. Now I can reveal what my big surprise for Uncle Charles was. I took Uncle Charles down on the field to watch the pregame events on Saturday. He was pretty excited and he got to take a lot of photos while he was down there. In fact I took his picture with Tee Martin standing next to him. Tee was really nice about it. Hopefully Uncle Charles will send me all of his photos so I can post them soon. He even had a prime spot to take pictures of the team running through the T. At one point while we were down there, Tennessee's punter kicked the ball near us and Uncle Charles ran over to get it for the manager. So you can see a picture of Uncle Charles trying out for quarterback below. We had a great time on the field and I was able to show him some of the new work they had done on the stadium and near the locker room. I was impressed with Uncle Charles for standing out in the hot sun for a long while. I was getting worn out and he was still trucking along. I must be out of shape! But all in all, we had fun and Aunt Bev got to see her first UT game at Neyland Stadium. Nan 'T' and I took a lot of pictures while they were in. Nan 'T' wanted to play the Wii and show Uncle Charles how to play, so he took a crack at it. He bowled better than Nan 'T' did! They also had a good time with Gideon. He showed out for them and even took a few pictures. So take a look and guess which ones he took. He was really sad when Nan 'T' and Papa Walker had to leave. He didn't want them to go and even cried after them when they drove away. Speaking of Gideon, the little guy isn't feeling so well. Vanessa is planning on picking him up a little early from school today because he has a little cough and some sniffles. I'm sure he'll get to feeling better soon. I put some pants and a jacket on him this morning because it was cold, so take a look at the picture I took of him this morning. Well that's about all I've got for now. Enjoy the pictures and I hope I have more to show later.

Sorry about taking so long to post photos. We've been pretty busy lately with work and church, so I haven't had much time to post anything. Last weekend Nan 'T', Papa Walker, Nana, and Peyton all came up to pay us a visit for Booms Day. Booms Day is an event where Knoxville shoots off fireworks for the Labor Day Weekend. We all had a lot of fun and Gideon enjoyed having Peyton around as a playmate. Granny and Pa Bottoms sent up some grapes from their vines and we made some grape juice out of it the other day. It was the first time we had ever made fresh grape juice. Gideon really likes it. This should be an interesting weekend for us this week. We have our first football game at home Saturday and we will be having a lot of visitors stopping by. Nan 'T' and Papa plan on coming up for the game as well as Uncle Charles and Aunt Bev. We're excited to have them all come up for a visit and to watch the game. I have something special planned for Uncle Charles, but he doesn't know what it is. I would tell on here, but I wouldn't want the word to get out, so he'll just have to wait till Saturday. Well I hope everyone has a great day and enjoy the pictures.

New Haircut

Well Gideon finally got a haircut last night. We recently bought some clippers to use to cut my hair and so we decided to try doing the same with Gideon's hair. Now I like the way Gideon's hair looks, but Vanessa isn't too crazy about it. I think it makes him look more like a little boy, but that's just me. Let us know what you think.
