Chris and I started April with a complete re-do of the yard and a deep cleaning of the inside of the house. Both looked fantastic! When Mylie got tired of helping me clean, she went outside to watch Daddy work in the yard!
The weekend before my Birthday we had a family party at Grandma and Grandpa's.
Sarah made an AWESOME cake. If only I had seen myself in this picture, I might have consumed less cake.
Laura and I decided to get a room at The Westin Galleria for our Birthdays. We shopped and then had a great Birthday dinner at the Cheesecake Factory!...then we shopped some more :o)

Laura with our impressive shopping accomplishments.
After dinner and lots of shopping, we went back to our room and ate cheesecake, drank wine (which took Laura a VERY long time to open with her $2 corkscrew hahahahaha), read stupid girly magazines, and played M.A.S.H. Yes, you heard me, M.A.S.H.
Cheers to 13 Birthdays together (we're 26....)

Birthday morning with the best gift I have ever gotten (although technically she was a Mother's Day gift 2 years ago...close enough :o))
Chris, Mylie and I headed to Mom and Dad's on my Birthday for some relaxing family time.
With my loves on my Birthday :o)
We planted grass seed in the backyard...and then this happened. We are afraid the seed was washed into the neighbors yard as their yard is blooming magnificently and ours...is not. Grrr!
We were really excited for Mamar and Papaw to get to see the house for the first time! They wanted a picture, of course!
The weekend of the 16th Chris, me, Mom, Dad, Mamar, Papaw, Matt and Mandy went to one of Uncle Ken's gigs at a golf course in Cypress and it was a lot of fun! The weather was gorgeous and it's always nice to spend a Friday night with family :o)
Matt and his girlfriend, Mandy.
The last weekend in April, Laura and Brecca joined Chris, Mylie, and I for a night of Mario Kart Wii, peachtinis, pizza, Scrabble, and movies. Chris was the bartender, the drinks were AWESOME!
We moved the kitchen table into the living room so we could play games and watch movies without the dogs spilling our food/drink!
