i successfully played pranks on April fools
my family had a wonderful Easter meal and Jason, Katy, and the girls and my grandparents from both sides came over to join us! We had a good ole' time!

(not pictured ^ the scrumptious dessert :D )
i went on a trip with my family to see friends in S.C.
i went to Hamrick's and got a cute shirt for $8

i went to Zaxby's (we don't have a Zaxby's where we live :( )
i saw boone's cave and Daniel Boone's parents graves



i babysat my nieces for a whole week with Kristen
kristen, ben, me, chloe, bella, emma, and napoleon rode in kristen's Buick. We were so squished and Napoleon almost got sick on ben and I (car sickness).
(Napoleon has gotten really big, so you can imagine ;) )

i saw some friends from VA. at boone's cave by accident! It was so neat!! :D

chloe: * walks in my room * It's so hot outside. I felt like a volcano.
me: a volcano?
chloe: yeah. I almost blowed up.
bella: * holds a belt up to her hair so it's going down her back * Look! I'm Rapunzel!
emma running around with babydoll glasses on her head

me getting sick and Emma wanting to keep feeling my forehead. She's so cute! :D
having a long conversation with Bella about "what is a teenager?" and "what is an adult?"
Bella asking where napoleon is like, "where he is?"
me and bella: * singing "mother knows best" from Tangled together *
bella: * stops when we get to "listen to your mumsy" * * she looks at me in
concentration * what is a mumsy?

My friend travels around the country singing for the Lord. She LOVES Hamericks! She's always talking about her closet he's she bought there! I wish there was one closer to me! Thanks for your Blog, Maddy! It's so encouraging to see young people living for the Lord! 💕
ReplyDeleteCloset he's she = clothes that she's 😝
ReplyDeleteNapoleon is SO CUTE!! I'm reading the book of Joshua in my Bible time right now-- so much good stuff.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a Hamricks where we live either, but when we go to S.C. we always stop by! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for commenting, Chayah Grace! It means a lot to me!
I know, isn't he? He's really sweet too. You cant tell in the picture, but in person he looks like he has eye liner on! :D
ReplyDeleteDo you come to SC often :)? That's where I live! Also, I used to live in VA :D.
ReplyDeleteYour puppy and your nieces are cuuuuuute!!! "What IS a Mumsy?" LOVE! Haha :).
Maybe I should start adding goals to my month wrap up posts, it sounds like a fun motivational idea... except for the fact that I don't even have my April wrap up posted yet. I'm a terrible blogger...
Loved this post :)!!!
You're very welcome 😊
ReplyDeleteWonderful review! How did the babysitting go? Thankful for: "my bed"--that's hilarious! :D Our April went fine and way too fast! We have five birthdays in April and May--two in April and three in May! I did a writing challenge last month and was able to write over 21,000 words! Go me! :p I'm doing another challenge this month, so we'll see how it goes! :)
ReplyDeleteWell, not as often I would like. We have some good friends that live in S.C. that we try to visit every so often. :)
ReplyDeleteAren't they?? And my nieces are always saying such cute things! That's why I made the "My Nieces" part in my monthly post! :D
I knew that if I put my monthly goals up for everybody to see it might make me try even harder to get them done! :D
You're not a terrible blogger. Did you see the date mine was posted? :(
Thank you for reading, Bri! :D
Thank you, Rosalyn!
ReplyDeleteThe babysitting went great! I really miss being over at Jason and Katy's house and watching them!
That's good. I know. The year is just slipping by way too fast.
Well tell everybody Happy Birthday from me! :D
Oh wow! Maybe I need to start doing a writing challenge! :D
What's the other challenge you're doing?
Yeah, I can't wait to have nieces and nephews! :)
ReplyDeleteThe other challenge is a writing challenge again! In trunking to write 10,000 words this month! Pray for me ... it's been slow so far! I actually have over 140 pages in the book, but I'm not even close to being finished! ;) *falls over backwards*
Have you read any of White Christmas? Looking forward to reading you're prologue! :)
Awww Napoleon is SO CUTE. And your sister is adorable <3
ReplyDeleteSounds like your April was amazing! I hope your May goes well too :)
It's so much fun! I hope I'll have a little nephew soon! :D I actually just got to hold a newborn baby boy that belongs to a family in our church. He was SO CUTE!!! I love babies! :D
ReplyDeleteWoah!!!! That's a lot! I've given myself the challenge (starting this upcoming week) of writing a chapter a week.
I'll definitely be praying for you, but you can do this! ;)
I actually just sent you an email about it! I read the whole thing and it was SO GOOD!! You did a great job!
Hello Audrey! Napoleon is actually even cuter in person! Plus he's REALLY sweet! :D
ReplyDeleteAww thanks! :D
It was amazing! I hope yours was too!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
