April was a really fun month, full of fun times with family and friends.

Here are some highlights:

We started off the month with a fun trip with friends to the beach! It was such a good little weekend getaway. We did a little wine tasting, visited an aquarium, did a lot of walking, and hung out on the beach. The weather was perfect and we had such a great time with our friends.

We had a couple of fun celebrations for my sister's birthday. We went wine tasting in a place none of us had been before and it was so much fun! It happened to be raining all day but we made the most of it. It was such a good time, She, my mom and I also spent a fun day shopping followed by dinner and dessert with the boys. I'm so glad we were able to do so much to celebrate her.

I had my five year anniversary at my job! It's crazy to think how fast time has flown and that I've had this job that long. My boss and his wife took Josh and I out to a nice dinner to celebrate. It was a really fun night!

Josh and I also had a fun date day, just the two of us. We went to a candy making factory (which kind of turned out to be a bust since they no longer offer guided tours and they don't make candy on the weekends) and then I took him to this cool indoor market I'd been to a few years ago with my wine ladies. We had a yummy lunch and then headed to a winery to do a little wine tasting. It was a really fun day and I'm glad we were able to go and be a little spontaneous together.

I watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Netflix. I had never seen it before and have a few friends that really loved it, so I decided to give it a try. Some of it was super cheesy and one episode had me thoroughly freaked out, but overall I really enjoyed it and all of its late 90s/early 2000s goodness.

We also babysat my sister's dog for a few days while she was out of town. Josh and I already really loved their dog before this, but I think he really fell more in love with her while she was with us. We were both sad to see her go when it was time for her to go home.

Overall it was a very busy and fun month, but I'm excited for life to slow down a little bit this next month!
