Weekly Happenings: We enjoyed a nice Easter Sunday (and the kids enjoyed fun things in their baskets) at the beginning of the week. We had ham, mashed potatoes, green beans, and homemade strawberry pie for dessert. Mid-week was rather ordinary, and then the end of the week was fun for Joseph since he had Fiesta fun at school. Fiesta is a week-long celebration in San Antonio. The big part of it is The Battle of the Flowers parade which commemorates the Battle of the Alamo. The rest of Fiesta just kind of spiraled out from there over time. I kind of liken it to Mardi Gras, haha.
The Weekly Weather: We had one big thunderstorm come through about mid-week, but other than that, it’s been gorgeous spring weather. 🙂
What Paul’s Been Up To: He’s been pressure-washing everything, haha. Well, not really. After he did our driveway and walkway, he moved onto the fences. Now he’s re-staining them so they’ll be nice and protected from future inclement weather. He also bought a new light fixture for our dining room and installed it. I’m so grateful he knows how to do all this stuff!
What Sarah’s Been Up To: I’ve been relatively busy keeping the house {relatively} neat, the kids happy, my plants alive, and my piano students well-engaged.
What Joseph’s Been Up To: He’s sensing the end of school swiftly approaching (they have a little more than a month left) and is looking forward to play dates and more free time. He had a fun Fiesta party at school where they enjoyed food and extra play time outside.
What Abigail’s Been Up To: She had been fighting allergies but then, on Wednesday night she popped a random fever. Normally I wait this type of thing out for a bit (it’s usually just a 24-hour bug), but my Mom-radar wouldn’t stop going off, so I took her into the doctor on Thursday. It turns out that she had strep and an ear infection! She’s a couple days into her antibiotics and is already feeling a lot better. She also likes that she gets a cookie after taking her medicine. 🙂
