For my birthday Scott bought me tickets to go see "Girls' Night" at the Morris Civic Theater. I was allowed to bring someone (because there was NO WAY Scott was going to go). I brought my high school friend, Amy Miller, knowing we would have a great time! The musical was about high school friends and was filled with lots of fun, girlie music! We had a blast hanging out with one another! Such fun!
This week Scott has been out of town, and since Eli has been sick, we've been cooped up inside most of the week. Since Eli seemed to be feeling a little better, I thought I could take him out to a movie and dinner. Grandma watched Jayce for me and I took Eli to see "How to Train Your Dragon". Eli loved it! Lots of excitement and some of the dragons were cute and funny. Half way through the movie Eli asked to sit on my lap. I could tell he wasn't feeling too well. (So glad we were there weren't many people in the theater). He didn't want to leave though, so we spent the last half of the movie cuddling...I loved it! Instead of going out to eat we just got some food and brought it back to Grandma's house. It was such a nice evening hanging just with Eli....don't get to do that much anymore. We'll have to have another Mommy/Son date night soon!
On Wednesday we had a visit from one of my college buddies and her kids. I went to Valparaiso my freshman year and Audrey and I became great friends. We got back in contact about 7 years ago, but within the last year have gotten together a few times. Audrey now lives in Valparaiso, so she drove here with 3 of her kiddos (she has 5) to visit. Eli had so much fun playing with Jillian & Rudy while little Douglas pretty much hung with his Mommy. I loved chatting with Audrey and remembering some of our fun times....can't believe it's been almost 20 years! It was so much fun & can't wait to get together again! Miss that girl!

On Easter Sunday we got together with Grandma, Paw Paw, Uncle Casey, Uncle Shawn & Allison for dinner. We ended up going out to Chili's then headed back to our house for Eli to open Easter baskets. Boy, the boys got spoiled!!!! Both boys got an Easter basket from their Great-Grandma Jean and also got Easter baskets from Grandma and Paw Paw. Eli had so much fun seeing all his new toys and candy! It was such a fun evening to spend together!
We celebrated Easter with my family at our house on Saturday. We grilled out and had a delicious lunch. After lunch all the boys had an Easter egg hunt (ended up being indoors due to the rain). I think the cousins ate more candy then they took home! It was such a fun time with the family! Love you all!!!
Jayce tried veggies for the first time this week. I started him with peas....made the mistake of starting Eli with yellow and orange veggies, then he refused to eat the green ones. Jayce made a few faces at the beginning, but then he actually started to like them! He's eaten them a few times now! Yum!
Kiki, Abi and Cousin Keaton got into town on Sunday evening. They drove all day from Nashville, TN to have a short visit with us. On Monday we went to Shipshewana to let the kids go on the carousel, eat at Jo Jo's Pretzels and explore a few of the stores. Keaton was very intrigued with the horse and buggys all around the area. That evening Keli and the boys came over. We hung out at the house for awhile then went to Mad Anthony's for dinner. On Tuesday morning, after bringing Eli to school, we all went to Mayberry's for breakfast. They were then heading on to Keli's house for the day and evening before driving back to Nashville. It was a short little visit, but we had such a nice time being together.
Eli's birthday is on Aug. 15th
