A great Father’s Day

      Comments Off on A great Father’s Day

Emily, who is the queen of theming, put together a really fun Father’s Day for the family.  For those of you who follow along with Hayesvision (or “The Vision” as some have been known to call it), you know that we love hopping in the car and going on road trips.  With that thought in mind, and since we are… Read more »

OK I have to get into this game as well.  Hunter and I were having dinner and as Hunter was slamming his last bite of kineapple (pineapple to the lay person) and as he swallowed his last gulp and said “Ta Da!” in a very excited voice.  I said “Who taught you ta da?” Hunter said without a pause “Alex and Taylor!” … Read more »

After traveling the entire city of Orlando in the car looking for something for dinner (long story), we ended up on the East side of town at the Mellow Mushroom.  For those of you who have not had a chance to eat there, they have awesome pizza and calzones.  We had a really great experience with our waiter Joey.  Hunter was in… Read more »

A beautiful Sunday at the beach!

Although Emily is not a huge fan of the beach (even though she grew up in Sarasota, FL…????), she agreed to appease Hunter and I and accompany us to the beach.  I have been known to go to the beach on occasion without much preparation and just walk and enjoy the day.  Well, those of you who know Emily know… Read more »

      Comments Off on Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Thirteen

I would like to say we planned this week’s “Week in Three Words,” but Emily and I both had the thought at the same time while we were enjoying ourselves at the beach.  It ended up being quite fitting as Hunter absolutely loved his time building sand castles.  Enjoy!  

Sunday at the Magic Kingdom

Those of you who read A cloudy, fun Saturday  remember that we attempted to embark on Hunter’s first roller coaster ride, only to end the event in tears as the ride was closed due to inclement weather.  We decided after a couple weekends of sitting around the house due to illness, we would venture out to the Magic Kingdom in… Read more »

Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Twelve

Hunter conquered his first roller coaster, Goofy’s Barnstormer, at the age of two!  Pretty sad when your two year old son is braver than you (for those of you who don’t know me well, I am not a big fan of roller coasters).  Don’t miss the video below and check out the rest of the day’s events here.   [media… Read more »

Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Eleven

      Comments Off on Hunter’s Week in Three Words – Week Eleven

Let me first say that while I do live in Orlando, I am still a tried and true Milwaukee Bucks fan.  With that said since the Bucks were mathematically eliminated in the preseason, why not cheer for the home team (although I started following the team about midway through game six of the Eastern Conference Finals!).  To mark the exciting time for Orlando, Hunter… Read more »
