Just outside of Monthomery AL, I was happy to make this purchase!
$1.65 a gallon! Amazing!

Eli lost another tooth.
While eating a hamburger at Sonny's tonight, he looked up and said "hey, my tooth just fell out!". Bottom right (as you look at the photo). It is the 5th tooth he has lost. Looks like the tooth fairy will visit the hotel tonight. :)

Eli's favorite football teams...
The other day, Eli decided to write down the names of his favorite college football teams. He got his USA map puzzle out and found all the names himself (or did them from memory). I was really impressed, but was also very disapponted to see that my beloved Auburn Tigers were not on the list. I guess I have a lot of parenting to do!
*(even though it is not on the list, the Auburn fight song is one of his favorite songs!)

The nearly perfect November day
Today, right after church we decided the day was too pretty to waste
so we decided to go out and eat. We headed to HOTDOG HEAVEN (Fantastic
Chicago Dog!) We ate all we could stand while staringout the window.
All of us commented about all the things we “could” do witha wonderful
weather day like today. I jokingly said “Let’s go tothe beach!” only
to have Eli, Naomi and even Tina say excitedly that they thought it
was a great idea! So we headed home to change and load up…
It was not really cold when we got there. It was sunny and warm,
just windy. They may look cold in the photo, but were trying to
do a “cool pose” back to back for the photo. (They got coldlater,
after they went swimming and got out…)
Yes, they did get in the water. Eli swam a while. Naomi only
got into water about to her waist, but kept getting in and out.
We were there for hours enjoying the sun and surf, digging holes,
building sand castles, and feed crumbs of CHEEZEITS to the baby
sandpipers who came right up to us. One even got brave enough
to get ON our towel, right next to us in order to get the crumbs
his friends were not daring enough to get themselves.
It really was a nice relaxing family afternoon. We told stories
and bad jokes, made faces, sang songs. We walked and looked for
seashells. We watched a lone fisherman cast into the surf for dinner.
We watched a couple of seahawks fly in repeating patterns back and forth
along the beach surf looking for food. Not a cloud in the sky.
No others around except about 4 local retires doing their midday beachwalk.
There was No stress. No distractions at all, except the occasional
seagull looking for a handout.
We stayed until it was getting dark and we hated to leave, butcontinued
the fun on the way home listening to and singing Christmas songs all
the way home. It was a nearly perfect November day.
At the beach for the afternoon 11/23/08
At New Smyrna Beach, it is windy and cool but sunny without a cloud in the sky!
