Around the House

Eating her first mini taco... she loved it!

She's really been into putting our shoes on and walking around! It's super funny!! I leave my shoes outside the door now. She was walking around with my sandals and chewing on them! YUCK!!!

She found Dada's headphones, so she got to try them on. We had to add her cool shades! Doesn't she look like a little DJ? Too cool for us!

Here we have her trying on Eric's zip down jacket! A little large!!

Breakfast on the Farm

After a breakfast that seriously included the most dairy products I've ever had in one sitting (a bazillion types of cheese, eggs, ham, yogurt, ice cream sundaes, bagels w/cream cheese, bread, milk, pizza, fried cheese curds, etc), we got to check out a 600 head dairy farm! They gave haywagon tours through the facility, horsedrawn wagon rides to the farm from your car, had a sweet petting zoo, parlor tours, kids games, and a display of tractors (Eric's favorite). Here are a few photos of our fun day!!

Alena gets to pet a tiny little kitty. She says "mew" super cute!

A sheep that liked to try to headbutt her :)



Sitting on one tractor...

After another... and loving it! Her great grandpa thinks that she'll be a mechanic someday (like he was :) Mama thinks she might be a mechanical engineer!!

After all the excitement, she fell asleep before we were 1/2 mile away from the farm!! I'd say that's a good day!!

Memorial Day Weekend

Trying on some pants that we were selling at our garage sale.

After her first haircut! She wasn't really that grumpy, she was just being sassy for the photos! Gotta love the face we captured, though!

Petting a goat at the Mainstreet Memories Car Show in Tomahawk.

Alena likes windchimes and Auntie Avery was happy to help her make some music.

Auntie Avery takes Alena for a ride on Grandpa's lawn tractor.

Grandma Hawkins wanted to pick some rock at Lake Alice and Alena took that time to get into the water. We ended up stripping her down and letting her take a dip. She LOVED the water!!!

Mama swished her around in the water and threw her in and out. If she wasn't held on to, she would have gone under in her exuberance.

Hanging out in Grandpa Cance's backyard.

Almost ripping the head off a a little chick at Grandma Hawkins' house.

Alena and the Toad

It has been taking me a long time to get videos on here, so instead of one long post, I'm just posting one video at a time :) Enjoy!
