Peter had a great time at the pumpkin patch yesterday. He was dressed like a spider, but he was more interested in rolling over into the grass than anything else.





He was sporting a very stylish set of footie PJs for the trip. Happy Halloween!

Peter took advantage of the Crimson Tide's week off to rest up for the big game next Saturday against LSU's Bayou Bengals. In fact, he has continued to rest up very well, and we are happy to be getting some sleep ourselves.






Peter is excited about Halloween coming up this week. He has a lot of dimensional similarities with a pumpkin, you know. Mom picked him out a very scary costume; so get your candy ready!

It's been a banner day here at the Bryant house! Not only did the little man sleep for 12 hours last night, but Mommy and Daddy also got 8 solid hours of uninterrupted sleep. It may not happen again for a few years, but it was quite a treat.

Peter is growing up so fast!

Peter, ever the traveler, spent the weekend in Bluffton, South Carolina, with his Reenie's family. Yes, the pictures above are real...it's that beautiful. It was the first time any of them had met Peter, and he put on quite a show for everyone.

After arriving late on Thursday night, Peter spent Friday afternoon playing with his cousins Bryce and Quinn. Bryce was a very big help with Peter.

Hayes put in a hard day's work with a few appointments on Friday, and after he got home, there was plenty of wood to chop (literally).

Later that night, Pop Kennedy hosted a small party for everyone in the family to meet Peter. We shared a scrumptious menu of steamed oysters, elk sausage, thick steaks, baked potatoes, and salad. Peter posed for pictures with Reenie to commemorate the occasion.

On Saturday morning, Hayes and Grampa (Bryant) played golf with Uncle Don at May River Golf Club at Palmetto Bluff, and Sarah checked out the outlet malls. [editor's note: Hayes finally quit talking about the golf course when we got back to Nashville.] Bryan, Leslie, and Quinn came over to hang out, and Pop Kennedy and Aunt Trisha joined us as well.

Quinn gave him a supportive pat on the shoulder as if to say, "don't worry, one day you'll be as big as me!" We all had a great time watching the Alabama Crimson Tide help the University of Tennessee athletic department make a decision

on coach Fulmer's contract (Roll

Tide!). Thanks to Reenie and all the aunts, Sarah and Hayes were able to sneak away for a date to a movie.

What a treat!

Sunday morning was a rush to get everyting packed up for the trip home, but we had a group of farewell visitors; so, we decided to take more pictures!

Check out the musical notes starting at 2:09. Tee hee hee!

Sometimes the grumpies come on pretty quickly.

Peter recently spent two whole weeks with his Nanny in Lafayette, Louisiana. I am not sure who had more fun, but we did manage to capture a few pictures of him and a few people.




Nanny talked to him all the time, and he got to the point that he would turn to look at her from across the room if she was talking to someone else.





Aunt Myra and Uncle Sonny had Peter over a couple of times. Peter can't wait to get his hands on some "silver bells" the next time that he is there!
