| Sarah Avery wanted her picture made with Honey one morning. Can't you tell how much Honey loves it? |
 |
| We have been enjoying the spring sunshine at the recently remodeled park near our house. |
 |
| I don't have a photo of it, but the slides and climbing structures are legit. The girls love it. |
 |
| We had a sad goodbye this month as well because our beloved crossing guard Ms. Wanda moved away. Both the girls still talk about how much they miss her. |
 |
| The first night Uncle Hollis was here we all went out to a pizza dinner. The girls adore baby Presley. |
 |
| And we spent our Saturday morning at Oxen Hill Farm. Feeding the chickens is always a highlight. |
 |
| These two never get tired of this place. |
 |
| /We took the ranger directed wagon ride and had great views of Alexandria. |
 |
| And then we fed the horses some celery that we brought for them. |
 |
| This was a favorite for all the kiddos. |
 |
| Susannah is back at it with her soccer playing. She has been playing really well so far this season and has already scored 2 goals. |
 |
| And then before we knew it, Grammy was here! |
 |
| The girls were so excited to see their Grammy. |
 |
| Meanwhile, Peter was in Asheville for his annual Citadel friend reunion. |
 |
| One night we made chocolate chip pancakes for Grammy. |
 |
| Sarah Avery showed her a little bit of how she is learning to read. |
 |
| Peter had a great weekend with his friends and enjoyed this beautiful mountain scenery. |
 |
| They even did a little fishing. |
 |
| While we did a little brunching. |
 |
| We had the nicest brunch in the spring sunshine. |
 |
| On Sunday morning we went to church. |
 |
| The girls were excited to wear the new dresses Grammy bought them. |
 |
| Last week was bible character day at Sarah Avery's school. She was queen Esther. |
 |
| She had to give her class clues so they could guess who she was and she spent the morning practicing. |
 |
| She is growing up so fast. |
 |
| The same day was Susannah's Native American Museum at school. |
 |
| Her class has been studying three tribes all spring and they were so excited to show the parents all they had learned. |
 |
| This weekend was a fun first for Susannah when we went to her first baby shower. This is Ms. K, her kindergarten teacher . We were sooo excited to help her celebrate. |
 |
| Yesterday afternoon we went for a walk through the bird sanctuary that is in our neighborhood. It was so nice and peaceful. |
 |
| Made us think we may be ready for a real (but still short) hike one of these days. |
 |
| Today is our first day of spring break so we did some easter baking in our pjs this morning. |
 |
| Susannah made lemon bars for the first time and they turned out great! |
So that is what we have been up to in April. Thank you to Uncle Hollis, Aunt Kristy, baby Presley and Grammy for wonderful visits. We love you all!
