April 2015

April was a month full of yard projects and fun outside. We visited the conference center on a chilly day with my mom, Jenny, and Brian and Timmy. Ellie loved running around with her cousins and still talks about it sometimes. We also had a fun time hunting for easter eggs. Ellie is a candy monster and I had to empty most of her eggs out so that she wouldn't make herself sick on so much candy. We hunted eggs at the Porter house, and we had an egg hunt at Grandma Joycie's house with the Evans cousins.  Ellie spent a lot of time in the dirt this month as we have been trying to build a fence aroudn our garden, but while we were working on that, Ellie insisted on helping us "dig" and do other tasks. A little dirt never hurt, and I'm glad Ellie likes to be outside looking at the bugs and getting in the dirt. Brian has been a champ, doing my bidding as I designed and planned the garden fence. It was fun to work on a project together and we were so proud of how little we argued during the process, even when we had so many trials and errors that we learned from! Let's just say they have seen us A LOT at the Home Depot return counter.

I love this picture because Ellie and Brian are in perfect stride together.

Mmmmm, so good.
