Amazing April 2013!

When April arrives I get really happy and excited because many activities will bring me great joy. A few of these activites are cookouts and dinners with family, birthdays, baseball, and the return of the beautiful green to the earth. I enjoy visiting my grandchildren.
 
 
Arriving at Sarah's for a Sunday dinner is always a treat!
 

Ron and Stephanie came with us this Sunday and were able to get a photo of all of us,although my camera made us look all stretched....don't know why.

 What is spring without climbing a few trees. Benson was able to get up just as fast as Taylor Ann.
 Sweet little Hannah loves the outdoors and loves her picture taken. She is 18 months here.
 We went to see Mckay play ball last weekend and so when we come to dinner playing a game of baseball is always a hit! Grandpa is so good to pitch!
 Bikes are also a sign of the spring returning. Sarah is blessed to have a large yard and a huge paved area where the kids can ride in the back yard!
                                      Ron enjoyed a visit to Spencer's orchard and garden.
 Stephanie also celebrates her birthday in April and we were so  glad that she and Ron were able to spend this day with us!
                  The following weekend we went to Rohnert  Park for Lucy's 6th birthday.
 Posing in front of the bear at the Black Bear Diner.
 On her birthday Char cooked a breakfast in bed for Lucy and she was so gracious to share it with her sister Gracie.
 Lucy is very artistic and creative and for her birthday she went to a place called Sqiggles and Giggles , which is an art studio that does art birthday parties.
 Creating her masterpiece. Each child made a stained art portrait and that was to be taken as a gift home. They turned out so beautiful..
 They even made a table for the younger girls to do art while the older girls did their stained art. Gracie was in heaven.
 Andrew was able to join the party, special privs since he was brother and he created a  Cars stained glass piece.
 We had so much fun and I enjoyed every minute of this party. A great idea for children.
 After the art the girls all had their faces painted from the teacher. Lucy choose a butterfly.
                                                       The finished butterfly... so colorful!
                                              I am a stinking cute little cat!!!
Ron and Steph were able to join us at our home for a dinner for Stephanie. It was a small but special group and we had a great time Happy Birthday sister!!!
