Gosh, are we 1/2-way through April ALREADY? I have SOOOO much to update you on - and tons of pictures to share. I promise to try to be better about this blogging thing in the days to come and not go so long between posts!
First, let's start with Easter. We had a great day, and the kids really enjoyed coloring eggs, finding all the goodies in their Easter baskets, and the egg hunt in the back yard.

Brady "cooling off" in his new pool (we had to make the water like bathwater before he'd even get in) :-)
Next on the update list is vacation. We ended up not going to Destin after all. I just didn't feel like a 5-hr. car ride - or dealing with packed hotels and beaches. So we opted for Ocala instead. We rented a house on the water and spent our time at Silver Springs, Wild Waters, Carney Island State Park, shopping, and eating out. The house we rented was in the middle of NOWHERE and was a good 20 minutes from everything - but we enjoyed it nonetheless. It was equipped with a hot tub, tiki hut, pool, waterfall/koi pond, and putting green...so there was plenty to do when we didn't feel like driving somewhere. The kids had a great time, and the adults got some much-needed R&R!
