Hurricane Party, Go Away Fay!

Zac was prepared just in case we lost power!! He had his headlamp ready to go!

And we Did!! Friday night for several hours. We were very lucky, our power came back on just before they called the crews in for the night when the weather got bad. Some people did not get power until the next day.

But just a little power outage didn't stop the Eikeland's from dining! We grilled up some hamburgers in the middle of the downpour! Boy were they good! Candlelight dinner and all. Can someone pass me the ketchup!

Good Bye to the Crazy, Lazy Days of Summer!

Hello to the 1st and 10!!!! Grades that is!! I even got them to act nice for 5 more minutes to take pictures! Taylor has been keeping Zac all summer and I think they are ready for a break from each other.....well I know that she is ready for a break!! I don't know if school is the break she was hoping for, but oh well!!

I can't believe Taylor is in the 10th grade. She made the big transition from Hosford to Liberty County High School last year. The year seemed to fly by, and here she is ready to start her second year of high school!!

I'll be blogging her Sr. year before I know it and she'll be off to college!!

Give me a D....A....W....G.....S!!! Gooooooo DAWGS!!!!!!

Zac -W. R. Tolar

Taylor - LCHS

P.S. Did everyone know that Cayla will start on Monday as the school nurse at Tolar!! Way to go Cayla!!!

Look at that sweet, quiet little boy....I bet he'll get lost in the crowd!!

No, really Zac.....tell me how you feel about the first day of school!!

Yeeeaaaaaa!!!!!!!

Good Luck Taylor and Zac

Have a Great 2008-2009

school year!

Footprints in the Sand

Thor enjoyed the beach so much. He was so funny. You couldn't stop him. If he got knocked down by a wave, he got back up or we scooped him up and he'd come back for more. I just loved how he was so determined. He got those little arms up and took off for the water.......leaving his little footprints in the sand! I hope he keeps that little determined attitude through out his life and leaves his mark upon the world, leaving his footprints behind for others to follow.

Hawaiian Holiday Highlights!!!

For those of you that I have heard "are about to scream if I have to look at those toes again"! Here are some new pics!!!! I have learned that traveling, is not for sissies! Don't go more than 1 time zone away from your own, unless you have a whole week to lie around the house and sleep when you get home! And last, but not least pack light! We had a great time......but I'm glad to be home! I love home! I'll post more later!

Taylor took this picture from the top of Diamond Head. I made the great sacrifice and stayed at the bottom with Thor!!

Yes!! John and I did go on the vacation!! Here we are at Pearl Harbor, one of my favorite places that we visited.
