Family photo before heading to Knoxville
My Papaw has had motorcycles my whole life. As a child, he used to take me all over Hartselle on his. It scared some people half to death but my parents never said that I couldn't go. I'm going to be a bit more protective of Jackson but I did let him ride around the 5mph campsite. My Papaw took his motorcycle and had a special lap belt installed. It was priceless seeing him ride around with his Papaw. He loved it so much that he'd turn from us when we would try to take him off the bike.
When Jackson wasn't on the motorcycle you could find him in his car. He is obsessed with his car. He and I randomly bought it at Wal-Mart one day after school. His teacher pulled me outside and showed me this contraption that he loved so much and I just had to go get him one. Thank goodness I did...
Some of our camping neighbors really took a liking to Jackson. They liked him so much that they gave him their granddaughter's bike helmet. Granted, the helmet was for a much older child than an almost 1 year old. Jackson's head almost filled it up. To that, the nice camper said "He's got a big head". I was like "yes, blame it on his dad." Jackson actually cried when Brent tried to take the helmet off when they went in a boot store. I'm told that Jackson then wore the hat the entire time they were in the store. I wish I'd seen that.
This picture melts my heart. My little guy loves his Papaw just like I do.
We also took a few family photos. Now I have Brent complaining and Jackson staring at strangers. At this rate, there is no telling what will be on our Christmas card this year.
We have a picture at this exact spot 2 years ago...
If only Jackson was looking...
We had a great time. The only picture I have from the game is on my phone. We were too bundled up to take a camera. Plus, I wouldn't have had any room for it since the seats are all of 6 inches wide in Neyland Stadium. It was nice having a "date" day with Brent though. It was a great, inexpensive Fall get-a-way :) I can't wait until our next mountain trip.
