Spring Break Day 2.

Today for something to do we had a shopping day. The kids were in need of new sandals and some warmer clothes. Katie and Anna got haircuts. Annas was the biggest change. Her hair was past her shoulders and she got a bob. I think its adorable and will be so easy to take care of. Katie didn't want to go that short, but it still looks cute. When we got home the kids wanted to model their new outfits and show off their new haircuts. Here are a few pictures....

Soccer games.

The kids had their first soccer games on Saturday. Unfortunately my camera malfunctioned and I couldn't get any pictures. It was just as well. The wind was blowing so hard I probably couldn't have gotten any good ones.

Katie's game was at 9 in the morning. The conditions outside were not the best for soccer, but the girls did really well. We had a couple that almost went in the goal, but the wind took it in another direction. They ended up losing by two I think. They are getting better though!

Joe's team is still pretty young. They really struggled with the wind and dirt getting in their eyes. Ben almost scored three times, but again the wind was so strong it pushed them out. Anna is doing so much better this season, however we still think she would rather play with the grass then go after the ball! All of them have improved a bunch so I know we will win one next time!

I love this picture of the kids.


I think my eyes are shut, but this is the only picture I think I have of Joe and I since our wedding.

New Blog.

Hello Everyone!! I wanted to let everyone know that I have changed sites for our family website. It will no longer be www.thetessfamily.com. I have gone with a free blogger that I can update and change the look when I want to.

Everyone in the Tess household is doing great. We are all excited about our first soccer game this Saturday and are praying for warm weather. Its suppose to be 75 degrees so we will see!

I will add pictures after the game. I hope everyone has a great week!

God Bless,

Joe, Tracy, Katie, Anna, and Ben
