A weekend full of blessings with Grandpa Tim and Nana...

Grandpa Tim and Nana came to visit over their spring break.  We had a weekend packed full of fun and lots of love!

Front yard baseball with Grandpa and Nana.


Ataly up to bat for the first time.


check out that level swing


She swings and....


hit the ball!


Ready for the pitch...


Way to keep your eyes on the ball.


The Hatfield men fielding while... 


Mommy is up to bat.


After mommy showed daddy how it was done...he was up to bat.


Hey are you guys fielding or checking out nature?!


Who's that cutie in the outfield?

The kids spent the night at the hotel with Grandpa and Nana.  They got to go swimming first thing in the morning.  


I love that Grandpa and Traeger have the same expression.


Lovin' the blessing of a swimming date with Grandpa and Nana.


Giddy up


Grandpa showing Traeger how to float.

Luke and I met up with the crew at Happy Joes for lunch.


We enjoyed a friendly competition on the "boink it" game.


Ataly's turn...


Mommy busting a move.

Then it was time to open up Ataly's birthday presents from Grandpa and Nana...


What could it be?


a shirt and a 


book.  


wait there's more...another shirt and...


a skirt for the 4th of July.


She also got a sweet craft project set.  


They wasted no time and got right to work on a few projects.


Check out that clay dinosaur creation.


Thanks Grandpa Tim and Nana for all my presents.

Sunday after church we walked to Hardees for lunch.


Who are these sassy girls?!


Nice ride...


I love her contagious giggles!

When we got home from lunch it was time for the annual Easter Egg hunt. 


Ataly scored her first egg


Oops...Traeger's candy dumped out.


No worries...he wasted no time to get back to the hunt.


1..2..3..4..


The last egg...it was a tricky one, but we did team work and eventually found it hiding here!


Look what I got!


Hmmm, I wonder why daddy was so willing to help out?!


A few more up to bats...


before we...


headed inside to celebrate...


Nana and Ataly's birthdays.


What are these boys up to?


We love you like crazy Nana...you're worth celebrating!


The kids worked hard on making a tasty cake for Nana.


Nana read the kids a few pages of the Chronicles of Narnia before bed...just like when she used to read to Luke and his brother.


Thanks to Aunt Barb for the tasty coffee cake....it was a great breakfast treat!


Getting in a few games before...


Grandpa and Nana's visit had to come to an end!

Wow...I love looking back at all these pictures remembering the special memories that we made over the weekend.  Our love tanks are full and we feel blessed to be on the journey with y'all!
