Fun on the Farm !

We went to Wheeler Farm and had such a great time! Tate and Hailey loved being outside and seeing all the different animals. It was neat to see my own kids playing on the same farm I often did as a child.

Tate thought this tractor was pretty cool!



Looking at the goats.




Hailey loved this giant pig. It was so noisy and kept splashing in the mud. Hailey just giggled.





Tate by the donkeys.





The kids got to feed the ducks. As you can see Hailey was a bit too short to reach over the fence and I think most of the duck food ended up in her hair, oops!




They were so excited for the hay ride! Funny that I noticed the driver was talking on a cell phone, boy have times changed.





Hailey playing in a tree house, peeking out to say hi.






Tate climbing up an old boxwood tree.







Hanging out together.








Tate with his friends. What a fun day at the farm!

Spring Soccer


Spring soccer time is here and Tate was so excited to have a good weather day to play soccer! His first few games were canceled because of rain or snow. He is really starting to get the hang of soccer and above all I know he has a blast playing!



Tate was kind enough to give me a quick smile before the game.






Here he is warming up with his coach.

As I reviewed the pics I took at his game I realized that most of the time when Tate is kicking the ball he has his tongue sticking out, kinda funny.




Here is Tate with his team mates Cole and Max. These kids just crack me up! They have so much energy.






Tate and his buddy Hayden thought it would be fun to keep the ball away from each other during their half time break.






Tate stole the ball from the other team. Nice job!





Here is Tate trying to make a goal.









What a great little soccer player!

Easter !!!

What a great Easter weekend we had! It was so great to get together with family and have fun.




Tate and Hailey with their cousin all ready for the Easter Egg Hunt at Grandpa and Grandma Pantuso's.




I love this one of Hailey! She's such a beautiful little girl.




Here is Tate trying to fit one more thing in his bucket. There were soooo many fun things for them to find.





Hailey found a purple bunny. If you know Hailey , you know she loves bunnies!



Hailey's bucket filled up quickly , so she decided to just sit down in the dirt as she piled her little treasures in, trying not to lose anything.




They had so much fun together. Luckily we beat the rain !





What a good lookin' kid!







Easter morning arrived and doesn't Hailey have such lovely bed head. She was so excited to look in every single little egg the Easter Bunny left her.




Hailey kept saying "Look mom! " and then she said " But, I didn't get to see the Easter Bunny. Can I go see him at him's house?"








Here is Tate going through his basket.









I had to get some pics of the kids in there Easter outfits, they both looked so cute. Tate has always been very photogenic.










And little Hailey what a darling.











What a wonderful Easter !

Dressed for the Ball

Tate and Hailey usually start the mornings out playing together. However, this particular morning Tate was in bed sick. So when I asked Hailey what she wanted to do she said "I want to be Cindaella" (She never pronounces her r's.) So we quickly got her dressed for the ball in her beautiful Cinderella dress.




She was so cute twirling around and around.



Her two favorite things, being a princess and playing with her bunny.



Here she is looking in her purse for her "gold coins."



Look mom I found them !




This is soooo much fun !!!





I just love you princess Hailey.
