My my has April flown by!

Well we had a great Easter, pictures to be posted soon. We learned not to EVER go to the Knight's Action Park Easter Egg Hunt, Torie almost got ran over at the mini course. We ended up just going home and having our own Easter egg hunt in the backyard. Once Torie learned what we were doing, she didn't want to stop! When we ran out of eggs she turned to rocks, twigs, etc. So much fun!

Zach turned 5 April 14th. We spent his birthday night at Grandma and PaPa Kates house, and I made my first layered birthday cake. Complete with lots of decorations and frosting flowers (Zach's favorite). Then the following weekend we had a bowling party. Even though the staff at the alley were not helpful at all, the kids had fun and that's what really matters! Zach and Torie topped the scoring of the day, and Zach got to take home a bowling pin that everyone signed. He used it throughout the game to get his "super powers" to bowl with. It was a rainy day but fun!

I volunteered with the Prarie Center Against Sexual Assault the following weekend for their "Walk a Mile in Her Shoes" event. Pretty much what it is, is men of all ages walking a mile in high heels. They are men's sizes, but that didn't make it any easier to walk! I saw teenage boys walking as well as a 3 year old with patent leather little girls shoes (he was riding in a stroller). It was really neat to see the dads that were walking with their little girls though. I took pictures as well as donated a prize. I'll be posting those soon too! Lots of fun!

Finally, last Sunday was our offical open house/BBQ. We haven't really had anyone over because we hadn't gotten the house fixed up. Even though there's a lot more we want to do, we wanted to open our home up to our friends and family. It was a perfect day with partly cloudy skies, the warmest day of the year so far, and was complete with good friends, amazing food, and ice cream! I can't wait to have another one! It was fun to see all the kids playing together in the backyard.

Oh, and we changed the wedding date again. Our reception hall got booked before we could get our deposit in so I had to juggle dates among my vendors. We're set for June 18, 2010...FINAL ANSWER!! You should be getting your save the date cards in the mail soon.
