Thankful April

 April is almost over and I am so very Thankful for that!
After a week of serious posts, 
Here, and here, and here,
I thought you might enjoy a little
  a lot of light heartedness!
Thankful for sweet moments like this one,
 he's always so happy to see everyone in the morning!
Thankful we had some mud pie days in April
 Thankful for icicles to play with (in April)
 Thankful for rubber boots, they get a workout!
 Thankful for lunch at the counter!
I realize as these kids are getting older and not fitting as good,
these days are numbered where they can all fit here! 

 Thankful for Pinterest finds like this craft for the Easter Season!

 Thankful that plain ol' boxes can give so much joy and play time!
(Simeon got a new car seat!)
 Thankful for horsey rides and
 Thankful these 2 girls play like crazy together!
 Thankful we got to see tons of robins one day
 Thankful they stayed, even when it snowed the next day....
 a TON!
Thankful the kids made the best of the snow in APRIL
 and made huge forts and snowballs...
 Thankful Simeon is now eating normal food
and his arm guards are gone!
 Thankful for hand me down outfits like this one 
that have gone through all 4 girls!
 Thankful Tom had help taking apart our basement bathroom,
we had to take the shower unit out (all day job) and the toilet...
and empty the basement, (we are finishing this weekend)
to prepare it for a tile-drain system, guaranteed for 40 years to not flood!

 Thankful for little babes....and moments like this...
 Thankful for another Pinterest find...it worked, but was messy!
 Thankful messy is good sometimes...
 Thankful for homemade granola! 

 Thankful for babies in the sink!  
(I will be so sad when he's too big for the sink)
 Thankful we did make the best of the last giant snowfall we got,
just a week ago, and made Peanut Butter Cookies, hot cocoa,
and popcorn, watched a movie and made
 SNOW FORTS!
Thankful for the SUN!
These girls actually got sunburned, 
from the sun and glare off the snow
 Thankful they love it outside, they were out for over 3 hours!
 Thankful for muffin Mondays...
 Thankful for vegetable soup!  
I've been eating it all week!  
(I love veggies!)
chicken broth,
Basil, pepper,
salsa,
minced garlic,
 and
 all the low cal veggies I had that would last all week!
(Carrots, onions, green pepper, celery, green beans)
 Thankful this little boy is always on the move,
 his hair, hands or feet are almost always a blur!
Now, you CAN'T tell me that is not red hair!!
 Thankful we finally got Sims to wear a hat, he needs this for shade!
 Thankful it's probably because his favorite person in the world wears a hat!
 Thankful for a new venture, in unicycling!
She loves it and is such a quick learner! 
We'll be seeing her in parades all summer!
Thankful this is today, the snow is melted off the trampoline,
it's 58 degrees out, and Tom promised the kids once it  hit 60,
we were going to the DQ--
I"m off to enjoy this beautiful, long awaited spring day!!

If you are still here after all that,
Happy weekend everyone, God bless you!
