April is a big birthday month in our family! My mother in law's birthday is April 6th- Happy Birthday,Sylvia!! We didn't get to see her on her actual birthday but we celebrated a combined b-day celebration 3 days later on Nathan's birthday which is April 9th. Here he is below with my present. I got him some really great binoculars and we've been using them to watch the beautiful birds in our backyard.
It was a great, great day! We both took the day off from work and slept in. ahhhh- we both know those days are numbered. It's ok, though! We're ready!
Anyway, back to Nathan's birthday....we went to a new restaurant called Brasserie Pavil, or as Daniel likes to call it "Pavil Brassiere " he said it sounds like a french bra. Ha! Anyway, its a new french (you got that part right, big b!) place that has to-die-for croissants and danishes.
Later for lunch we met up with Larry (who shares a birthday with me on April 22), Sylvia and Daniel. In the evening we went to see Frost Nixon at the majestic. Thanks, Greg! The tickets were great but the show was a little too playwritish for my taste. I like dance numbers. I like music. Let's face it- I like Broadway musicals and opera much more than plays. But love or not, I really enjoy anything that's live theater. We had a great date night!
Nathan's birthday is so special to me because I'm so thankful he was born. He is my very best friend, a great husband and already a great father. He talks to my tummy everyday and I love that! I pray that this year brings him lots of love, happiness, joy and peace. I love you so much!

Here's the cake I made him. It's a giant cupcake! I saw this cake on Erica's and Mindy's blog. By the way, Erica's birthday is in April, too! April 14th. Happy Birthday!
On the Friday before Easter Nathan and I went to Joy and Brad's for dinner and Easter Egg dying fun. Here's a picture of their little Jayla. She's so cute! She loves sucking on these two little fingers. She always has them in her mouth!
Another cute thing that Jayla does is baby push ups! It's so funny! She does it again and again!

Easter Sunday was wonderful! We went to church and had a great day! Here we are with Joy, Brad and Jayla after church.
After Easter weekend our staff got a little breather! All the ladies from the office decided to go and visit a sweet friend that recently retired and built a new house in Pipe Creek. We left work early and went out to see Sharon. After touring her new digs we went to eat dinner in Helotes at El Chapperal. It was so good!Something else you can see in the pics is I cut my hair! I love a shorter cut for summer and it's been about 10 years since I've had this cut. I love the 10 minute drying time vs. the old 25-30 minute drying time! So, that's what I've been up to! Now, I'm going to see what all my blogging buddies have been doing. Have a great night, all!

Great post Nicole; you're hair looks great--it's still got a nice length but it frames your face nicely! You and Nathan are so wonderfully matched--I think you are soul mates...I can't wait for Baby Carmines to get here...BTW, *where* are you registered?
Ok, next time make the waiter get a better picture of me please! It was a fun evening & Sharon's house is just soSharon! I just love it.
Your hair is just beautiful. The cut suits you well. I am thankful you have a good friend like Joy to share girl times with! April seems to be a busy birthday month for you - I am surprised you even had time to post! (I'm glad you did though)
Nice goldfinch and great picture...I couldn't get close enough with my zoom to get any decent pics when they were here:( Is this wonderful Nathan guy that you're talking about any relation to my brother, Nathan? Just wondering...hahahaha!
Happy b'Earthday baby! :-)
