I'm super excited because, after this post, I will actually be caught up with blogging for the first time in MONTHS!!! April was a crazy busy month for us here, and I feel like it's best shared via pictures! We literally had something planned every weekend! Our first weekend was the Kwaj Spring Break Music Festival followed by Leanne's baby shower. The next weekend was my Mexican Fiesta themed birthday, and the weekend after that was Easter! WHEW! I'm exhausted just reliving it! While it was such a fun month, I know Johnathon and I are looking forward to a weekend with nothing planned! With that here is the month of April recapped:
Weekend #1: Spring Break Music Fest/ Leanne's Baby Shower/Miscellaneous Fun
|
Let's start with Miscellaneous...this actually happened in March but it was too cool not to share. The guys caught a Marlin! I thought it was huge until people told me it was actually very small for a marlin. Either way I was impressed! |
|
I loved the color of this fish! Clearly, Johnathon also loved it |
|
It's softball season! Looking for Sadie and I? I feel like we are always at the softball fields cheering on J and the Mud Ducks! |
|
Not a bad field to play on :) |
|
The first weekend in April was the Music Festival aka-the afternoon spent in the home brew beer tent! |
|
Some pretty ladies I found in the beer tent (I feel like I should mention that Leanne is drinking ROOT beer) :) |
|
Reliving our crazy college Spring Break days...clearly Cher and I had different Spring Break experiences ;) |
|
Thanks Johnathon for ruining really making this a top notch photo! |
|
Sarah and I with the guy who gave me his parrot hat! |
|
That Monday (U.S. Sunday) was Leanne's baby shower at the Country Club- How cute were the decorations?? |
|
One of the games was too mix and match baby pics of Leanne and Preston to come up with what you think Babytown will look like. Clearly this baby is gonna be a looker :) |
|
Donna and Leanne |
|
If I'm ever having a bad day, all I have to do is look at Lindsey's baby...hahahaha |
|
The hostesses Angela and Jane with the mama to be! |
|
We tried to recreate our prom pose from last fall...it's a little bit of a tighter fit now but we did it! |
Weekend # 2: My 26th Fiesta Birthday!
All I wanted for my birthday was a relaxing day at the beach with friends! And maybe food from Chuys....while Chuy's didn't happen, we did have some yummy Mexican food, and the rain held off long enough for a good day at the beach!

|
We took the party to the lagoon |
|
Love this girl! |
|
Love me some Donna too! |
|
And of course I knew I could count on Angela to bring the fiesta spirit! xoxo |
Jenny brought me some Patron for my Fiesta Birthday, and because it's my birthday, I forced everyone to take a Tequila shot with me! Judging by the priceless faces below...I think everyone really enjoyed it!
|
I went first... |
|
Cher and Donna's face says it all |
|
Lindsey got smart and licked a chip before hand because we didn't have salt |
|
Johnathon clearly enjoyed it ;) |
|
The ladies :) |
Weekend #3:
Last but not least, was our Easter Sunday on Kwaj. There was a sunrise service held on Emon Beach, and it was such a beautiful way to celebrate Christ's sacrifice for us! The service was held under a big pavilion, and afterward they held Baptisms on the beach. Two adorable girls chose to be baptized, and I think that was my favorite part of the day. After the baptisms there was a buffet breakfast that Johnathon and I capped off with a 2 hour nap! Happy Easter!

The first girl with Pastor Kevin |
|
This girl was so cute...she ran in she was so excited, and she plugged her nose for about 5 min before she actually went under water :) |
|
He is Risen! Happy Easter |
April was so much fun, and I can't wait to see the Sekol's when they come to visit in May!
