Fun in the Sun!

It seems like it went straight from early spring to full on summer here lately! This year has seen some very odd weather but we are thankful for the sunny days and are having a blast playing outside! The kids are all growing so much these days that I feel like every time I blink they are changing...time flies so fast these days. Here are some pictures of our lives lately:
Dad & his girls: Char (L) & HK (R)

Super Charlotte at the beach playground!

Super Hannah Kate at the beach playground!

At the Aquarium with friends: Carson, Grant, and HK

Happy Micah! We have pictures of the girls just like this from when they were younger.

He is pulling up and standing on anything he can these days!

Just hanging out.

This is how I solve the fight over who is going to swing in the big swing at the park ;)


Water table fun! Micah, (L), HK (middle), Char (R)


We went to Hunt Club Farm Mother's Day weekend and the kids LOVED it! Patrick's Uncle Dan & Aunt Susan came with us and we met up with Taryn and the boys there and the kids had a ball feeding the goats! Char feeding the goat, HK loading up on more goat food from mom.

HK feeding a goat.

The Hunter & Gille clans.

HK riding a pony with Aunt Susan beside her. She loved it!

The kids also got to chase chickens around in the coupe. They didn't catch any so dad caught one and let them touch it.

The girls getting an up close look at the ducks. HK in front.

What a big boy!

We went to a local strawberry farm and picked fresh strawberries with the Amets and the Holladays, sweet friends, and had a blast! The girls picked strawberries for about 5 minutes before they handed us the buckets and decided that eating them was way more fun! We were eating strawberries for weeks and using them in any food we could ;)

Micah & Charlotte. The girls love it when Micah wakes them up from a nap! This picture is so funny because it looks like Micah is about as big as they are :)

Rainbow at the beach

Micah loves crawling around in the sand and feeling it between his fingers.
