Trevor is in third grade. He loves to play football, watch football and play it on their new Wii. He is a big fan of the UT Longhorns and LSU. He is the mischievous stinker boy who use to climb on top of the minivan at age 2. He has had a burned cornea from biting a glow stick, a third degree burns on his fingertips from trying to see what makes a dryer work and has swallowed a quarter. Despite all the mischief, he is very smart and scores highest in his class every year on his achievement test.
Tatum is all girl. She loves dolls and anything sparkly. She loves to clean up the kitchen, dance, watch High School Musical and listen to music. She is in Sherry's first grade class and is a cheerleader. She carried Austin around a lot this week, but refused to change his diapers for some reason. The Baby Alive doll didn't seem to inspire her quite enough.
Trent is in sixth grade and is on the basketball team. He loves sports and video games. Last year we were surprised when he had an accident when he fell off a swing at school. Everyone who heard the news asked if it was really Trevor and not Trent! He suffered two broken bones in his arm, fractured skull and bleeding in the brain. He is fine now though, thank goodness! He was great this week with the boys.
Sherry is a mother of four, wife and first grade teacher. She is always on the go, though she says she likes to take it easy. I don't buy it. Her favorite things are eating, spending time with family and playing games. She loves taking pictures and she just started her own blog.
Russell is a great dad. He plays with the kids a lot and is a big kid himself. He has a great sense of humor and always cracks me up. We like to recite lines Christmas Vacation movie. "Can't see the lines can you Russ?"
