continuing April events....

(April 20)

With the Pope in town, there was much discussion around here and of course, he was on TV. Natalie wanted to know more about him, which led to the discussion of church. We haven't been to church much since Ryan was born (except for Baptism)...and Natalie missed going, so she asked if we could go on Sunday. So, her and Daddy got dressed up and went, leaving me home with A & R. I'd like to get back in the groove of going...it's just so hard w/3 kids now. I know that is a poor excuse.

Bad, bad, bad....

Anyway, we continued on to the park later that afternoon and we had a ball! Especially Ryan!

Ryan is knee deep in to the teething thing and we are awaiting the first one to break thru. In the meantime, he got in on the family's cool treats, frozen cherry limeade! MMmmm.

He loved it.

Tommy was inducted in to the Illinois Wrestlers & Coaches Association HALL OF FAME. Of course, the family was there for the dinner and ceremony to help him celebrate his achievements.

(April 28)

Mom & Tom celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary on this day and we also celebrated Jane's new home w/cake, chocolate strawberries and a champagne (sparkling juice) toast. We will be celebrating the 30th anniv. on Sunday. Anyway, the girls had a lot of extra energy to run off so we had dinner at Burger King and the girls played in the play area w/tunnels. Here is Natalie taking a break to eat.
