April = Baseball and Birthdays

April is always a fun month in our house with Opening Day, Evie's birthday, Jamie's birthday and Easter!  This year we did Opening Day with several friends, and it was a blast!

Pre-gaming with Justin before breakfast

Detroit!

Always a great time!

I didn't get many pictures of Easter this year, but we had a lovely weekend dyeing eggs, finding baskets, church and a family gathering at Amy and Rex's!

No major disasters this year - success!

He is risen, Alleluia!

Evie turned 11 in April, and had a jam-packed weekend to celebrate!

Happy birthday, Evie girl!
(that is a dirt cake)


We did a Gilmore Girls evening to finish the lastfew episodes of
the show - complete with pizza, Chinese, twizzlers, twinkies,
pop tarts and bellyaches

Evie's gift was a queen size bed and to get rid of
the "kiddy" rainbow on her wall - Ben helped

Jamie bought Piston's playoff tickets before knowing
the date of the game... ended up on Evie's birthday, so
she got to go with him!

Good luck charm

Evie also got to do a trail ride with her best buddy

The horses mostly behaved

Had to get Mochinut afterward

Grandma took her on a shopping trip for her birthday gift!

And finished with McDonalds

Jamie's birthday was a couple days later... adult birthdays are a lot more boring!  We all went to the Tigers game, which was a rough loss, but we still had a great time together!

Giant donut!

A rainy tigers game, but we had a great time!  The kids are all
old enough to just relax and enjoy some baseball, I love these outings!

Trying to make our ugliest faces - I think we succeeded!

Some others:

Maggie and Isa at their robotics competition

Jamie took his mom to Florence and the Machine!

Maggie was featured in our city's art exhibit at 
the library for her digital design!

Another playoff game with his dad this time!
