April was...

...time for a Spring photo shot of the girls (another post to follow)...

...a Spring trip to our local zoo with friends.  Here we are waiting for the train to pick us up...

I had a few extra kids that day to help Rebecca out.  Seven kids, aged 6 and under- not a small feat at a crowded zoo.  So thankful some other moms joined us!

The boys squished in a seat above and the girls squished below...

That's a bunch of boys!

And a gaggle of girls!  So thankful for friends for our children to grow up with...

What creature is in this cage?

Then it was playground time-which ended abruptly after Hannah fell through the opening behind her.  Thankfully no concussion.  And it was a good time to leave.

April was also cousin Isabella's 4th birthday party...

Happy Birthday, Princess!

The big girls, wishing to be brides...

Yah! Presents!

Prince Isaiah ready to rescue any helpless damsels...

April was also a special Mommy-daughter outing (but I have too many pictures so they will have to wait for a separate post)...
