This month could not get any busier... or fun, for that matter.  The weather has been amazing and we just can't get enough of it after last year with so much gray that consumed our days.  We were able to get tickets for The Cincinnati Ballet to see The Princess and the Pea.  It was beautiful and the first experience they remember appreciating the orchestra playing while they witnessed beautiful dancing. 

                                        Volleyball has been big in our neighborhood- there's always someone up for a game. 

                                     Lots of birthdays--- Ellie turned 8, Erika turned the BIG 13, and I turned 40.  (Yes, I typed it... and had to write it at 8 in the morning of my birthday, and sign in under a poster board for a 5K race under the age group of 40-49!  ReALlY???!!!  That was just cruel... especially before a race, where it was freezing cold and rainy...

 Easter Egg Dying is still a hit with my girls...  guess who's dozen this is...

Couldn't get enough of my sister's ducks at Nana and Papaw's house for Easter

 She really can't be 13... pretty sure she was just 3 and crying that her shoes had to match her outfit that had to match her coat!  My sweet Teen Angel, as Papaw calls her.
