So just to give you an idea of what my hospital visit was like 2 weeks ago, I thought I'd share this photo from 26 years ago when I came down with Scarlet Fever. This pretty much shows you how my mom deals with her babies being in the hospital. Clingy you might say? Nope and judge us if you must but this is totally normal for us. Thanks again mom for being there for all the traumatizing experiences in my life, I'm happy to share a hospital bed with you any day.

April Showers bringing May Flowers...
Two weeks ago while the boys were busy playing at the Masters, my mom came to visit and spend time with me doing girly stuff. The week turned out to not be such a fun week being that I was admitted to the hospital. Everything is ok though! But extremely thankful that my mom was here to be with me and help me out. And by helping out, I mean she not only makes sure I'm comfortable but cooks and cleans the entire house for me. Hands down, I have the best mommy.
Though it was a painful week, I still enjoyed spending time with her and her new baby, Thimble. She's a 2.5 pound Yorkie with a lot of attitude. Surprisingly, she put Berkeley in his place all week. She even snagged his new bone from him that JoJo brought him. He really loves it when JoJo comes to visit, she brings really really big bones to entertain him with which keeps him very busy!
Vince and my dad were able to go to the Masters 3 days and on Sunday my mom and I watched all day long to see if we could find him them. After watching what seemed like hours and hours, we were just about to leave for church when we finally identified my dads red shorts on hole 16. They definitely looked like they were enjoying themselves. I'm so glad they could go together and enjoy a fun filled boys weekend.
We're also enjoying all the fun festivities that the springtime brings here on the bayou, like the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra. Every year they play a free concert and it's a great excuse to pack a picnic and enjoy a night on the lawn listening to incredible music with friends.

So spring/summer is among us here in Louisiana and has been for a few months now, not surprisingly. The heat is becoming more and more intense, therefore, I forced Vince to buy me a pool. Just a little something I can lounge around in on a hot summer day. Berkeley enjoys it too!

Easter Time!
Holidays are never the same without being with the ones you love so Vince and I took a quick weekend trip to Tampa to be with his grandparents as well as his sisters family, and uncle. The weekend was a whirlwind to say the least with lots of time spent in the car but we enjoyed every moment of being with everyone to celebrate Easter.
Fishing seemed to be the weekends main activity since our nephews brought their poles and everyone took turns trying to catch something. The only bait available at grandma's house was hot dog. After learning how to cast his line out and "rolling" it in, Luca was so excited to catch a hot dog!
The next day we all piled in the car and drove 2.5 hours to Cape Coral to visit Vince's uncle Pete and cousin Jack who had rented a great house on the water and bonus, a pool! The boys swam their little hearts out while Laura and I bronzed in the sun and Vince and Uncle Gary pounded the Bloody Mary's. Needless to say, it was a very quiet ride back to Tampa for me.
Unfortunately, Vince and I were back on the road headed home Monday morning. Though it was a very short weekend, I'm so happy to have been able to be with family and create more wonderful memories. Now looking forward to the next visit.
