Dean Walks!

Tonight after dinner Dean decided to take his first steps. Here is video.

Memorial Day Weekend

We had another fun weekend at the lake. Here are a few pictures.

The littlest Hatchetts pilled together on the hammock.

Anna Grace's first ride - she loved it.

Her first Big Bertha ride as well.

Dean loves swinging on the hammock.

Relaxing after a long swim.

Poor Malley Tate looks just like her daddy.

Weekend at the Lake

We had a fun weekend at the lake. Here are some pictures.

Dean's first boat ride.

Anna Grace's first time to drive the boat.

Dean liked watching the water behind the boat.

Anna Grace now calls it her boat.

Anna Grace loves Uncle Gilder but she really loves "Malley Tate the baby."

Mother's Day Zoo Trip

For Mother's day we had a day of fun. It started with breakfast at the Original Pancake House then a trip to the zoo and concluded with lunch at Sneaky Pete's. Anna Grace loved the zoo and still says the alligator is her favorite animal. She also never took her sun glasses off - and we were there 3 1/2 hours. Dean managed to sneak in a little nap while we where there.

Dinner at Honey and Big Daddy's House

Anna Grace loves to help in the kitchen.

Our Train Trip Home

After so much blogging I had to take a break. I am back in full swing though. Here are pictures of our trip home on the train.

Our train approaches the station.

Getting off the train.

Taking it to the house

She was ready to come home and see her daddy - all three of us were. We had lots of fun on our trip to the Coast but we are thankful to be at home in our own beds tonight. I have some pictures getting off the train in Birmingham today but they are on Jan's camera so I will have to post those later.

One last trip to the pier

We went one last time for a ride on the swings before it was time to come in and begin packing for today's train ride home.

Tea Party Time

After our crawfish Juju and Anna Grace enjoyed a tea party on the porch. I think Anna Grace wore the most appropriate clothes ever to the party - especially the camo shoes. Dean attended the party but he did his own thing.

Crawfish time

Sunday Ottie cooked crawfish for us to enjoy before returning home today. Anna Grace and Dean enjoyed helping - especially while the crawfish were still alive and they could watch them crawl around in the cooler.
