Winter & Spring & Summer 2014

Jake killed his first deer on New Year's Day 2014 hunting with Steve and our family friend, Bruce.

 

 

SKI TRIP 2014:

 

 

 

 

EASTER 2014 was a lot of fun! The Easter Bunny brought lots of treats and the boys were super duper cute in their Easter attire:)

 

The boys still continue to say the cutest and funniest things. For example, Henry calls a whip "a slap" and a bandana a "damn-bana" :) He also talks about people dying and says they "went down in history" :) Jake calls a side dish at a restaurant the "sidings" :)

 

Jake celebrated his 8th birthday with a FISHING PARTY at the pond beside Pa and Grandma's house. It was super chilly but a lot of fun! Aunt Bizza cooked us food on the cooker and we had "pond water" (sprite) to drink. And of course, Jake caught a fish!

 

 

 

 

Henry celebrated his 5th birthday with a KITTY CAT PARTY at the patch :) He invited all of his friends and family and even had our cats (Mr. Handsome and Mrs. Pretty) there as the guests of honor. The bathroom was the "litter box", we had food such as "whisker lickin' good" chicken nuggets, and of course, a fun piñata!

 

 

 

Jake successfully learned to tie his own shoes in June 2014. Henry learned to swim all by himself in the deep end on June 13th, 2014 during swim lessons at the Wakefield Pool!

 

Jake was chosen to have his original joke published in Highlites magazine!!!!

 

Jake also received perfect attendance for the 2013-2014 school year!

He also has learned to run the cash register at the farm and can check out customers!!!!!

 

Henry played T-Ball for the first time this year :)

 

 

 

 Jake played Coach Pitch again and Steve was asked to pitch for the team! Jake really enjoyed having his Daddy be a coach :) Jake was also asked to play for the Southampton-Sussex All Stars team and Steve also helped coach them, too :)

 

 

 

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY 2014!

 

 

We started our first herd of cattle in July, partnering with our friend Matt Brantley. We have 10 cows that are part Angus/Simmental.

 

 

 

 

 

In July, Henry was chosen to be Little Mr. Peanut 2014 at the annual PPP Festival at Chippokes State Park. Jake also had this honor when he was 5, back in 2011.
