Plane jumping and number running

Thursday afternoon Damon IMed me with the idea to go to Finley Stadium and watch the Golden Knights do their practice jump for the game the next day. People were invited to walk on the football field, tour the stadium, and check out the games at First Tennessee Pavilion.

When Damon came home from work, he told Fuller we would go see some people jump out of an airplane. Fuller immediately launched into a monologue of some sort which included paragraphs about getting on a plane and going to Ohio. Since he has been asking everyday to go to Ohio, we were sorry to tell him this was a different plane and it had nothing to do with his ultimate dream of going to Ohio.

Watching the flares light up the sky and the men glide to the earth was as thrilling to Fuller as running around on Davenport field. He liked running on the numbers and tackling Daddy.

Since we didn't get tickets for the actual game, getting to go a day early was a lot of family fun.

We might not live in luxury homes, but we still have a ton of fun.
