April

Daddy and Rylie girl 

Tomorrow is May 1st. Which means one month until SUMMER!!! Yay. I am really looking forward to this summer and school finishing up so I can have some fun with my kiddos! This month flew by since I was gone 10 days this month in Kenya, but Bret was SUPER AMAZING rock star dad like always, so I am so grateful to him running our store and managing the kids and all their stuff while I was gone. I know they  had so much fun, it seemed to be filled with lots of dance parties, and hanging out with Grams and Pops and soccer games and practices, and some birthday parties in between. April 1st was also Easter Sunday this year, so that was a fun day at church and then we hung out with my sister that evening and had dinner with them. We celebrated my dad's birthday earlier in the month, so that was so fun to get to go down to his house and see him. We took him to dinner that night as well. My kids love my dad so much, so that was fun.

Before I left for Kenya, I got to go on Tucker's field trip with him to a ranch out in Magnolia. That was a super fun day. Him and his friends loved the barrels where they spun like mice on a track around and around in circles. While I was gone, the boys had field day, and Bret had a great time going to that with Tucker and getting to run around with the Kinder kids and see Carter and his best buddy Luke. This past week was meeting up with our new CPS worker for Roland. She is wonderful, so I am so grateful for her and meeting up and then Kristy our casa worker came by as well. This past weekend was crazy with the kids school carnival on Friday night, then Carter's soccer on Saturday, then we went to see the play Hamilton and then Sunday Bret and his dad and the boys went to the Astros game! So a very full and fun weekend! Looking forward to this next month and all we have going on with the end of the year!

Both our big boys busted their heads open this month. That was fun. Thankfully it was just minor. Carter is still playing soccer and loving that. The other ones have been into playing basketball in the backyard, and wall ball and riding scooters around and of course pop a shot. They love the greatest showman soundtrack right now, so that is fun.
