Hey Guys,
I am missing you a ton. I can't wait to be back at school. Payton and Cooper are keeping very busy. This Saturday we went to the Orange and White football game in Knoxville. This was Cooper's first big game. He looked like a true fan in his TN gear. Payton, of course looked like a pro. She's been to so many games now. She loved the Vol walk. Good Luck on the rest of TCAP.

Remember: If it's not your best, it's not good enough!
