April extras

April flew by with Easter, spring break, and the end of sports seasons. Bonnie had a little egg hunt at her school that we got to go to. They had to find eggs with specific words they have learned in class. 

Riser has his 4 year check up.


We got to participate in Katie's neighborhood egg hunt. We missed our neighborhood hunt this year so the kids were so grateful to be invited.

They had so much fun we re-hid the eggs a couple more times after dinner.

Bonnie's play doh cat.


Bonnie and her friend are always coming off the bus asking for playdates.


I decided to chop off my hair for the summer.


Bonnie had a hat day at school.



We are getting small tastes of the warmer weather and taking advantage. 


Riser and I walked CW with mom one morning.




Bonnie was very envious of the time Riser gets with Grandma when she's in school so she asked for her own little Grandma date. When we came to pick her up she took us out for ice cream and a movie.





Silliness with this boy. 






Waiting to get Bonnie from the bus stop.


Best part of the day - getting her home!

Spring Break

All of Benny's family came out to visit for Spring Break. First his parents arrived and the kids enjoyed some quality time with them.

Then Alison, Shary, Sienna, and Sydney arrived! The first day we all had together we did a walk around CW and had lunch at the Cheese Shop.

Then we hung out at the house for a bit, did a boat ride, and went to our neighborhood restaurant for dinner.

The next day we all went to Busch Gardens. Katie and mom rallied to get a bunch of guest tickets we could use which was incredible. This is what the girls were looking forward to the most! Everyone had a great time and we spent more time there than I think I ever have in a day.

The grandparents were great sports hanging with the little kids while the big girls did as many roller coasters as they could. 

One day we went to Jamestown Settlement, the weather was perfect.

The grandparents brought a couple extra cascarones from Texas.

The girls played lots of dress up and made shows for everyone.

Our last day we stayed close to home and hung at the beach for a bit. Everyone had super early flights the next morning.

It was a wonderful week full of fun new memories! We love these people and wish they were closer!
