#1 Dad

Happy Father's Day to a #1 Dad!! 
 Daddy is AWESOME for climbing/sitting/jumping on!
He is the BEST to play sports with!
And he is GREAT at encouraging the kids to do things that Mommy is not...
The kids could hardly wait to give Dad his cards this morning!  Jack's card was covered in sports stickers and Fernie's card was covered in horse stickers.  I love how Caroline is trying to sneak one of the presents off the table. 
 
Summertime fun!
 After church park trip. 
 Our spider monkeys.
 There is no one who loves life more than Fernie!
 
 
 
 
 Jack is giving T-ball 100%. He is not afraid to field the ball...
 
 
 Running to first, second, third or home, he gives it all he's got!
 
Might just be the cutest catcher EVER. 
 One of Jack's biggest fans.
 I think Caroline prefers to be fed by Jack and Fernie.
 This lasted about a second and then she is off...
 Full arm swing and all!
 What kid doesn't like playing in water...add some soap to make bubbles and it's a good time had by all!
 Buddies. 
 Just chillin'.  Looks like it's time to clean the playroom...
One of the four dresses she wears over a course of a day!  The kitchen hot-mit and the Wild Kratt glove make the outfit for sure!
Watching Jack at T-ball practice in style. 
 
 The last T-ball game was a bit chilly.  Papa kept Fernie warm...or maybe it was the other way around, I'm not sure!
 A weekend trip to the zoo.  There were lots of baby animals to see (my favorite part) and someone always wants to eat some pellets. 
A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E. 
 Happy Father's Day to one of the BEST dads in the world.  The kids are so blessed have him in their lives.  The other two BEST dads are my dad and Zack's dad.  I don't think either of us could thank them enough for their love, support, and encouragement.  Neither of us would be where we are today without our dads.  We love you both!

The End of an Era...

Caroline is still up to her climbing tricks...Anything to get her higher!
Jack has been enjoying his T-ball practices.  He takes them very seriously.
 
Most mornings Jack likes to "check the scores" with Zack...now Fernie has to get in on the fun!  It's amazing how many teams Jack knows already. 
For Jack, the month of May meant the end of an era.
FALL 2014...
SPRING 2015
Jack had his second to last preschool program.  Where's Jack?!?!  Top row, sixth one in.  He had an awesome year at school - academically, socially and physically (he grew almost 2 inches!). 
Jack also had his last AWANA Cubbie program...he will be a Spark next year. Where did my baby go???
On the last day of school, Jack's teacher had a small program of silly songs for parents and then the kids enjoyed cake and ice cream.  What preschooler doesn't like silly songs?!?
I can't believe this little big fella is going to be a kindergartner next year! (weep)
The day Jack has been waiting for finally arrived - the First T-ball game!  His entourage stood still long enough to pose for a picture!
Top of the first inning he played catcher.
Third Base- waiting to catch the ball.
In his second game of the season he had some great hits and good runs!
He LOVES T-ball!
In addition to all the exciting things in May, we were blessed with a new Nephew/Cousin!!  Thanks to technology we were able to meet him at just a few hours old. 
I don't know anyone with a bigger smile. Just the thought of Fernie makes me smile...and this picture brings a huge smile to my face!
Caroline LOVES to color on other people's drawings...
Anyone up for "sledding" on the grass.  It keeps the kids entertained for long periods of time so why not?!?

And who doesn't love to wear their life jacket while playing in the yard.  I really don't think this girl could ever wear enough protective gear at one time!
Our little bookworm.
The joy of reading!
 
All three of our kids thoroughly enjoy their baths.
Jack loves a good game of ring toss.
A spontaneous trip to the park!
There is a pretty big smile behind that nuk!
Who can pop the most bubbles?!
Garden time! 
I think there was some "planning" before they started.
 
Such good helpers.
Everyone did their part.
I'm excited for what this summer will bring.  We are looking forward to hosting some company and taking a road trip or two!
