Lastest and Greatest

It seems this April we've been showered with tons to do! We have been incredibly busy lately!  Hopefully these April showers will bring May blog posts!

Here's the lastest and greatest -

Who doesn't love a present "just because?"  One of Matt's favorite bands came out with a new CD so I bought it, wrapped it up on his dinner plate and surprised him with it when he came home. Brownie points for Theresa!

The house hunting has begun!
We met a great realtor who has shown us a handful of houses in the Milford/Trumbull/Shelton area.  There was one house that really stood out to us in the north end of Milford so we had to invite my parents up to see it!  I'm so lucky to have a dad who knows houses better than anyone else!  After his thorough inspection and talking things through over lunch, we decided to put an offer in!  We'll see where that takes us!  We love the house for it's sunny kitchen, big backyard and serious potential!

Matt will use any and every excuse to cook... and I love him for it... sorta.  We are completely different cooks/bakers.  When I'm cooking, I take out what I need, place it back where it belongs immediately after using it and wipe the counter down if needed as I go.  This makes for a more pleasurable cooking experience because when I'm done cooking, I'm ready to eat.  I can sit and enjoy my food while not having to think about the amount of clean up that's needed to be done.

 Matt, on the other hand, has a completely different "style" of cooking.  His game plan is to get me out of the kitchen, get every appliance out, every tool, every ingredient, open every draw and cabinet and make every mess possible.  Me being his OCD wife, runs into the kitchen every time he turns his back and wipes up spilt ingredients and puts away items before he notices.

Sometimes I get caught and get this face above.  I must admit that he always cleans up his mess, it's just that nothing goes back in the right place! Thank god he loves me, despite my OCD. Even though my cooking "style" is way better than his, Matt's food always tastes way better than mine! So I love him for it... sorta.

Easter was picturesque!
We could not have had a better day for Easter brunch!  It was a great way to wrap up spring vacation with the family.  Even through all of the insanity and busy schedules Matt and I had over the past few weeks, Ryley keeps us smiling!  Can't help but love that smiley Ryley face!

This big guy turns 2 on Saturday!
