I’m running behind on photos as always! These are from when Hayley’s team played in the Julian Brown soccer tournament in Charlotte in April.
I took Hayley and her teammate Gabbie down early on the train down since they were tracked out, we went to Discovery Place and goofed off! It was a great trip and we loved the new Hyatt Place hotel in Charlotte.
There are four chunks in the gallery – train trip, discovery place, hotel room and action shots from the tournament.
Jeff’s parents John and Sharen are touring Rome and Greece with the Virginia Tech women’s basketball team. The team has a blog with photos from the games and site seeing and we found a few photos of his folks.

We keep telling people how much Hayley grew and thinned out. She’s all arms and legs these days. I had to spread her arms so you could see how long they are. Then she and Jeff did it together, mind you he is 6-3 and she’s adopted but she is so lanky like he is right now.
I love traditions and for the fourth year in a row, we’ve decorated eggs with our next door neighbors and done a big hunt in the morning across our front yards for the kids. It’s so fun to do this with them each time and watch our kids grow up together.
A few days before the big hunt, we had more friends join us for decorating so it was a lot of fun – and a lot of mess but that’s part of the fun!

This might have been the longest party circuit ever! Cupcakes at school, big cookie at soccer, family party at home and then big party with friends at WiiBounce. WiiBounce is half flat screens and Wiis and half bouncy inflatables.
It was SO FUN. We didn’t take a ton of photos because we were having so much fun. The idea of having her friends bring pet items for the shelter instead of gifts was a huge success. Kids had fun getting them, parents didn’t have to worry about wrapping and getting the right stuff and we didn’t have to worry about unwrapping so the kids played longer. We’ll take all the stuff to the SCPA soon too!
The family party was fun too, she got her Wii and all sorts of goodies to go with it. Everyone joined in playing the Wii, even the grandparents!

My college roommate Nicole and her son Mason came to visit in April and we had a great time. We went to the Museum of Life and Science and then Monkey Joes.
Nicole is always great fun to hang out with because she loves to do cool stuff with the kids – not to mention I just adore her and her son too!
Annabelle loves Jeff. He picked her out for us and we think she has a special bond with him. She snuggles with me, she’ll play with Hayley but she preens for Jeff – we call him her boyfriend.
