April in Pictures

Dodi treated Violet and I to Mani/Pedis to celebrate Violet not biting her nails for 2 weeks! (She has since started biting them again:( )

Someone was super excited about the new Captain America movie!

Poppa bought this recliner for Phoenix at a Silent Auction. He couldn't wait to sit in it!!! Don't worry, we didn't drive with him sitting in this!

We went to Benihana to celebrate Poppa's Birthday!

Playing around at Mardel's

Phoenix is our big helper!

Phoenix spent the night with Dodi and Poppa all by himself!

Getting a Manicure from my sweet girl!

Easter 2014

We had a BIG family gathering Easter Weekend. A few days before, Phoenix and I went to Sam's to stock up on some necessities! We had a great weekend, and Jackson provided some excitement with a Go-Kart Accident, Broken Arm, Firemen and Ambulance. Thankfully, he is all healed up know and back to his crazy self!

Phoenix refused to take any "normal" pictures until I took some pictures of him posing as a Bunny Rabbit. Here is our Bunny in the yard.

And here is our sweet Bunny munching on the mesh carrot I made.

Violet's Birthday Party Part 2

The day of Violet's party, there was supposed to be a big rainstorm move in about the same time the party was to start. We decided to throw caution to the wind and set up outside! We had a Coloring Table, a Karaoke Station with Frozen CD and "Pin the Nose on Olaf." We also made "Snow" with Inst-Snow. We made snow at a Family Literacy Night at EEE, so I found a similar product on Amazon. It turned out great, and I think all the kids enjoyed it! The rain started about the time we finished our activities, so a few dads quickly threw everything in the garage and we came in to eat and open gifts. The rain stopped, and the kids went out back to play on the trampoline and playset! Violet is so blessed to have so many friends and family who love her!

I love this picture. Jackson asked me to announce that he had opened up a new station, a "Sword Fighting" Station
