So hard to believe that a month has passed and I have not blogged anything. The month of April was one filled with many exciting things. The true end of winter and seeing the plants shoot up out of the flower beds is something that I always look forward to. The hostas are back, as well as the roses, lilacs, lillies, and several different grasses! Nothing blooming just yet but the lilacs are about to burst any day and I am so excited.
Ashley blessed us with some exciting news in April as well. She and her boyfriend of 4 years have decided to get married. Tony gave Ashley a "golden egg" for Easter which contained a beautiful engagement ring. She is very excited and we are for her as well. Wedding planning is something new to me as I haven't been involved in the planning of a wedding for 23 years (our wedding)! The tentative date right now is 9-10-11. I know, I know but at least it will be an easy date to remember! Colors for the wedding, Black and White, accented with Burnt Orange. Nice for a fall wedding and burnt orange is Tony's color so at least he has been given some input! Wish me luck as I make the journey through wedding planning and becoming an "in law"! I am certainly going to need any advice that I can get so don't be shy~let me know what you think!
Lena is about to finish her first year of college and we are so happy and proud of her. Seems just like yesterday we were planning her graduation party from high school! TIME Flies! She has decided to take a job at Burdette Park in Evansville for the summer, working in their office. She is super excited about the job and we wish her the best of luck. It will certainly be different for her as she is used to carrying large trays of food to people and tending to their every need. Sitting behind a desk, spending time on the phone and getting her feet wet in a different type of customer service will be priceless experience for her. I will say I am a little sad that she is opting to spend the summer 5 hours from home but it makes sense that she would want to be in Evansville with her friends and sister. I am hoping that she uses her organizational abilities and gets her sister fired up on planning a wedding!
Well, that is about it for now! I promise to try to keep up better with my posts.
HAPPY MAY TO YOU ALL! Enjoy Spring!
