Garden Love

Well our garden has been doing really well this year. I guess the hard work of changing it has paid off so far. We still need to add a drip system in the future, but other than that it has been great. I thought I better get some pictures before it gets too hot. This year we have planted peas, leaf and head lettuce, peppers, carrots, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes (lots of them), potatoes, onions and radishes. We are hoping after the peas are done we will add some beans. We have been using the lettuce, onions and radishes. Still waiting on the rest! Happy gardening….

New Family Members

Well we added some new family members to the family last week. Snickers and Pepper. We swore not to add any new animals, but the kids used their own money and came home with some cute little bunnies. We decided with 2 they can have a friend right!? Well they are both FEMALE, at least that is what we were told! I guess if I post some bunnies for sale you all know the truth! It has been so fun and Roxie has even loved it. That is funny since it took her awhile with Hopper. She hasn't barked once or bothered them at all. The kids are with them and Roxie every chance they get. Briana has to check them periodically all day. The names, well they had a hard time deciding so we had to put them in a cowboy boot (not sure why they wanted a boot instead of a hat) and chose 2 of the names they liked. Well Kaly cleaned the cage Saturday and they all help feed them. I guess we will see how long they stay motivated.

Soccer Season

We had a fun soccer season this year. Funny thing was we were anxiously awaiting our list of what team we were on like everyone else. When we got the letter of course the first thing you do is look at the coach. It said Hatch on one and Hatch on the other. We thought well, is there another Hatch? Jeremy's brother must be coaching.......looking at the phone number it was us. Then we figured, sure one is ours, but the other must be Layne, nope our phone number was both! Well we actually really enjoyed being with these kids and had a great time. Both teams did great. We had some go-getter kids that is for sure! Great job to all of them. Kadens team didn't lose one game (not like they keep score, but we did of course!) Mady's team lost twice, but they did great. Both of them loved it this year and since it was their second year I think they understood better and really had fun. Baseball has already started so here we go! We love this time of year. Unfortunately the weather has been so crazy. Madelyn only had 2 games not in the wind and rain. Her first and last! Hopefully the sun will start shining for baseball season. What will happen is we will probable just jump to 90! Let's hope not!

Track Meet

Madelyn ran in the 100 and 200 for the Hershey Track Meet. She did great. She took 2nd in both of her heats. This was her first time to race on the track. I think she loved it! I know we enjoyed watching. We let Kaly skip school to come watch. Good Job Mady!

Easter

We had a great Easter. My grandparents were here as well as Jeremy's family. We had a lot of fun, but it was busy, busy. Here are only a few pics. Sorry we didn't take many.

Happy Birthday Kalyann!

Happy Birthday Kalyann! We love you! 11 years old, where in the world does time fly! I can't believe she will be in 6th Grade! Whew! (sorry about the pics, for some reason I can't get them to go upright!) I think she was excited about her gift. It was only a blow dryer! I was a cute one though :o)

Spring Break

This year for Spring Break we stayed around. We went sledding, hiking, biking, geocaching. We had a great time and loved the kids being home.
