Fun with friends

I love those warm days when the boys play outdoors all day long with neighborhood friends. They jump on the trampoline, play in the waterfall, run through sprinklers, play in the clubhouse, dig in the sandbox, ride bikes and scooters, and just have fun being boys! We love our neighbors and the parents enjoy hanging outdoors together in the summer almost as much as the kids do!

Baseball

This year Logan is playing Little League Baseball and he loves it! His team is called the "Bats", they play two nights a week, and with Anthony as assistant coach, he has really learned alot about the game and working together as a team. I hope he continues to have an interest in baseball, and sports in general, because I love to watch him play. I am looking forward to getting Sawyer involved in some sports soon-but for now he's been having fun cheering on his big brother!

Field trip to the Zoo!

This week Logan took a field trip to the zoo with his preschool. It seemed like almost every school in town also took a field trip that day, because the zoo was filled with school children! He had fun running around, playing with his friends, and took a few minutes to actually look at some animals (what do you expect when you're at the zoo with all your friends)! The weather was perfect, and the animals were all pretty active since it was early in the morning. We were able to see the elephants eat breakfast and the black bears run around playing. Sawyer and Parker enjoyed the lion the best (who cares if it was just a drinking fountain!) Logan, Maddox, and their friend Bode had a blast climbing on everything and fighting who would ride in the stoller next. It was a crazy but fun day~ I am looking forward to going again soon when it can just be our family on a Sunday afternoon when it won't be so crowded with screaming, running kids!

Mother's Day

What a wonderful Mother's Day I had! It started with a Mother's Day Tea the boys had at their school on Friday. Both of their classes had the children sing songs, had lunch prepared for all the mom's, and little mothers day gifts that the kids had made-so sweet! Sunday morning Anthony prepared a delicious mother's day breakfast of homemade eggs benedict-yummm! We then went to church, and then went to the Tracey Aviary at Liberty Park. I love to look at all the birds and hadn't been there in about three years so I was amazed at all they had done. We then had lunch downtown at Cafe Trang, the boys were amazingly good and Logan loved the food-I think he ate more than I did. What a beautiful day it was, and the boys were so cute all day~they really tried to get along and kept hugging me and telling me "happy mudders day"! Why can't everyday be Mother's Day?!

Build-A-Bear

In following tradition of when my nephew Maddox turned three and my sister took him and Logan to the Build-A-Bear workshop to pick out a bear, this time she took my nephew Parker and Sawyer out there to celebrate Parker turning three. The boys had a blast picking out their bear, filling him up, giving him a bath, picking out an outfit, and finding a name for their new little friends! Sawyer named his Diego and he is a firefighter bear, and Parker named his Clifford and he is dressed as a racecar driver. Thanks again Aunt Jen, Sawyer had so much fun and he loves his new bear!

Easter Day

We had a busy fun-filled Easter Day here at the Tedesco household. The morning started with a little easter egg hunt in the house. Poor Sawyer just followed Logan around, chasing him trying to find an egg. He was able to find a few that Logan missed. We then went outside in the backyard for another Easter egg hunt. This time Sawyer had the hang of it and started in a different direction from Logan. They both ended up with tons of eggs and therefore candy-the Easter Bunny was certainly generous this year! We then went back indoors where I had planned an Easter Scavenger Hunt throughout the whole house where the boys got to search for their Easter Baskets and a special surprise-a new bike for Sawyer and a new scooter for Logan! We then went to church for a great Easter Service, where the kids all had yet another Easter Egg Hunt outdoors afterwards! It was such a beautiful day we decided to head to the park after church where the boys could try out their new bike and scooter and play for awhile. When we came home we put up the trampoline and played and relaxed the rest of the day, and we had a very yummy traditional Easter Dinner that night. We all went to bed exhausted from such a fun-filled busy day!
