Blake's 3rd birthday party!


Blake had a wonderful party for his BIG 3rd BIRTHDAY!!! This year we decided to do just a family get together... we had homemade chili and hotdogs and yummy cupcakes and icecream! Blake got so many wonderful gifts! He was thrilled with everything, but some of the highlights to his day included binoculars, an umbrella, toy story figures, a backpack, a suitcase and a few movies... and mommy and daddy were super excited about all the clothes!!!! Thank you so much to everyone for all that you have done and continue to do for our sweet boy!!! Can't believe he is THREE!!!!

Halloween 2010

Fireman Blake to the rescue!

Kaleb made a super cute puppy dog!

A fireman and his dog.... ready to trick-or-treat!

Thanks to our good friends and old neighbors we were able to ride from house to house with lots of other kiddos on this trailer... so much better than walking (and if you know our old neighborhood, you totally understand!)

Trunk-or-Treat

Well, this year we got a bonus with 2 days of Trick-or-Treating so Granddaddy and Granna joined us at trunk-or-treat... Kaleb thinks this looks like fun!

Alrighty, here we go...

Punkin time!

Blake picked out a little pumpkin for Kaleb first... such a sweet brother... and even brought his own credit card to pay for it too!!!

Kaleb was thrilled with his little pumpkin!

And was excited to see everything as we strolled around the patch!

We stopped for a quick photo of the boys with their pumpkins, but couldn't get them both to smile at the same time... oh well... this is the best we could do! Thanks, Granddaddy for the pumpkins!

Myrtle Beach Oct. 2010


We had a blast in Myrtle Beach... Justin's mom and dad joined us for a fun vacation, with beautiful weather and good times! This was Kaleb's first trip to the beach and he absolutely loved it! He sat right in the sand and played and kicked his feet... he crawled around in it, and even ate some too! Blake was thrilled to build lots of sand castles... and even more so to knock them down. We also enjoyed the pools and lazy river at the condo!

Ohio - Abby's wedding

Justin's cousin, Abby, got married on October 9, 2010, in Ohio and we (along with Justin's mom, dad, youngest brother and sister-in-law) made the trip up for her special day. Here we are before the wedding!

Blake waiting on the wedding to start...

Funny guy... keeping himself entertained!

Kaleb was loving the whole wedding thing too... he said he would just take a quick nap until it was all over!

All the Kilgore's (that could make it anyway!) with the bride and groom (from left to right: Marcus, Heather, Sonny, Linda, Abby, Joey, Leslie, Blake, Justin and Kaleb)


Tried to get a fun pic with this old truck... no one was really into taking any more pictures though...

Back at the hotel after a long day of wedding fun...
A few minutes later they were all fast asleep!

Rock City (Sept. 2010)

After visiting the Aquarium downtown we decided to go up to Rock City. Here's Daddy, Kaleb and Blake making their way through "Fat Man Squeeze!!!"

Blake... a.k.a. World's Strongest Boy!

Such a handsome young man! He had a blast seeing and playing on the big rocks!

Aquarium (back in Sept!)

First stop... penguins... Blake, not so sure about it.... but once he saw the real ones he loved it!

Oh, no!!! Watch out for that big shark behind you Blake and Daddy!

Blake liked this snake and the scuba diver that was cleaning one of the tanks the best... he watched for a minute then went right up and "petted" the snake (didn't catch a picture of it 'cause I was too busy watching him!)

Funny guy inside the tank! (I took lots more pictures, but most ended up being the back of Blake's head, as he looked in the tanks or the reflection of me off the glass of the tanks instead of what was inside, bummer!)
