Hey y’all! My name is Adriane. I once was the authoress of this here blog… Ok, ok, I know…I’m still the authoress albeit the very, very distracted authoress of this blog. Life has been super-dee-duper busy lately. I think April may have been the month to schedule every single event that needed to be done for our family of seven. However, with the exception of a birthday party, a retreat for David & I, and a camping trip for the guys, I do believe that we may be in slow down mode now. To that I say – YIPPEE!
So what exactly have we been up to during this unexpected 20 day blog break.
Well, we’ve been…
learning to read
celebrating a birthday with an ice cream dessert
(And he turned 14 not 4 as the candle would have you believe. The #1 candle disappeared and was no where to be found until about 2 weeks after his birthday!)
a little sculpting, a little painting
(And obviously some ironing as evidenced by the ironing board in the picture!)
dying of Easter eggs and making Resurrection cookies
hunting Easter eggs at PawPaw and Grammy’s house
as well as…
riding the four-wheeler
and making a pound cake and fruit salsa for this month’s Bunco with friends
( Link above is to the recipe for fruit salsa which is YUM-O! We tried it on the pound cake which is YUM-O times 10!)
There was also
playing at the duck pond park with friends
studying of baby ducks
helping mommy in the garden playing in the mud
(please excuse shovel handle in photo…I had to quickly stop what I was doing to snap the picture)
and you know there’s been
gardening!
(I can’t wait to show you what’s going on in the garden right now!)
There was so much more that has happened like…Bible drill, being an Andrew sister, making paracord bracelets for soldiers, swimming with friends, walking with my walking buddy, eating crawfish…I told you it has been a busy month for our family!
These are busy days but they are so full of precious memories!
