The spunky Sawyer entered our world on January 23, 2012 and we have been trying to keep up with his amazing energy ever since. Sawyer is the master of facial expressions as he keeps the family light hearted and laughing.
Check out all of the family events that Sawyer has been a part of!
Another amazing holiday season has come and gone. There was so much to be thankful for this holiday season that I wanted to make sure I captured all of our highlights in a post. As I created this post it was evident to me that family and friends are what make the holidays truly special. Thank you to all who… Read more »
Chalk up another win for Emily in the idea and theming department with today’s festivities! With the recent release of The Good Dinosaur, Emily decided it would be a fun idea to have a Dinosaur Day with the boys. If you have been following along with Hayesvision then you probably know that raptor calls and T-Rex growls have become commonplace… Read more »
Having been married into the Griffin family for over 10 years now, I have learned that the holidays are a very important time for the entire family. Whether it is finding the perfect gift, scouring the tents for 3 hours to find the perfect Christmas tree, or lugging the 328 pounds of decorations down from storage, the Griffins mean business when… Read more »
Another Thanksgiving is upon the Hayes household, and like our previous Thanksgivings, we decided to start with our annual tradition of breakfast at Dunkin’ Donuts. In an effort to offset the 2000 calories we were about to consume, we decided we would ride our bikes the 2 miles to the nearest Dunkin’ Donuts establishment. Luckily for us it was a beautiful… Read more »
As we often like to do in the “Fall”, we like to head out early on the weekend and enjoy the nice weather outside. Today was no exception as we set our sights on the Orlando Wetlands Park in Christmas, FL. Well I don’t think Mother Nature is quite on the same page as she delivered us a beautiful 90… Read more »
Friday was an exciting day because I was able to start work from home so that Emily and I could divide and conquer the two school functions that were both happening at 10 am. Sawyer has a Halloween party at his school and Hunter had the Boosterthon Fun Run at his school. Since Emily is the classroom mom at Sawyer’s… Read more »
One of the Hayes family’s favorite ways to usher in the Fall is to pack a picnic basket and head to Fort Wilderness at the first sign of sub 100 degree weather. This year was no different. We got our drinks and snacks packed and ready to go, stopped at the brand new Jersey Mike’s Subs on Narcoossee (they were… Read more »
It was roughly three years ago when Hunter got the itch to try his hand at pet ownership. At the time we thought fish would be a great foray into this venture because how hard is it to keep a fish alive, right? Turns out we have a gift for short stories when it comes to tales of fish. This… Read more »
Our weekend got off to a nice relaxing start as Hunter got to crash with Grandma and PopPa on Friday night and Emily and I enjoyed some wings from the Nona Tap Room. A pretty healthy end to a day that started with Breakfast Burritos from the Wawa which opened down the street on Thursday. We enjoyed our dinner… Read more »
Our last cruise day had arrived and everyone but me took the opportunity to sleep in. The boys have been going full steam from sun up to sun down and I have never seen them sleep in so late. We finally got everyone upright and ready to go and we headed to breakfast one last time at Cabanas. We art… Read more »
