When is the Super Bowl?

Mommy says that I am not allowed to watch television. Sometimes Daddy let's me watch football. Wow, I was on the edge of my seat during the Colts game. I can't wait for the Super Bowl. Am I invited to the party? If so, don't forget my seat.

A Day at the Beach

Ryder's first day at the beach. It was a blustery 60 degree January day in Hilton Head but we all enjoyed a long walk. Ryder is yet to experience the sand between his toes and the taste of salt water but is eager to wear his little surf shorts to the beach this summer.

Boating

They said I am too small and that it was too cold to go out on the boat. At least Papa Leveque took me out on the dock. I think I am going to like this boating thing. Maybe this summer?

Patiently Waiting

Patiently waiting for us. This may be a trend.

Bringin Sexy Back

Enough said!

Merry Christmas from the Huttons

Our first holiday, family photo on Christmas day.

Stocking

That man in the red suit, that I met yesterday, really delivered these gifts and placed them in my stocking (the one that Great Grandma Osborn made)? Wow, I really must be a good little boy. Imagine my bounty if I had been awake when I met that jolly fellow. I could get used to this.

Santa Claus

Who says I'm not laid back? This may be the calmest reaction we ever get from the little guy during Christmas. Nana Leveque and Ryan enjoyed watching my visit with Santa. I still don't understand why Ryan did not want to meet Santa.

Purdue Recruiting

Over the holiday, Ryder met JJ Mollenkopf in South Carolina. We figure its never too early to start talking up Purdue. We hope JJ is the first of many meetings between Ryder and our Purdue Alum friends and Sigma Chi's.

Uncle Ryan

Ryder finally met Uncle Ryan. We really don't know what Ryan was telling him but by the looks of the photo, Ryder really seems to like it.....maybe it was promises of future golf lessons/matches, the latest fraternity parties, or college girls....

Ryder's First Christmas

For the Christmas holiday, we drove to Hilton Head Island, SC. Ryder slept for a good portion of the twelve hour drive and was well rested when we arrived. Wilson was not too excited about the drive but enjoyed the weather, space and companionship of Callie (Leveque's Yellow Lab) while visiting. Courtney spent a month in Hilton Head Island and enjoyed the time, assistance and support of Nana and Papa Leveque. Unfortunately, I was only able to spend about two weeks with the family. Upon my return, I was amazed how much Ryder had changed. We are back in Memphis and plan on sharing many of the photos and memories from Ryder's first Christmas.
