April 2022

Sarah started playing lacrosse this Spring! Lacrosse is really big around here so they have this large rec league divided by grades. The 2nd and 3rd grade girls field 8 teams and they meet every Friday for a big group practice followed by games on Saturday mornings. Sarah’s team is called the Pumas; here they are on the first day of practice.

Signs of Spring: our Magnolia tree blossomed.

On April 3 we celebrated Andrew’s birthday! He wanted it to be totally stress-free so we ordered a cake from Seth Greenberg’s Just Desserts. It was simple but amazingly delicious! Such a treat. Blaine snuck in and blew out the candles so we needed a re-do! We had the cake for afternoon snack, followed by presents, and then dinner out at Shoyu Sushi in Scarsdale.

April 5 was Great Grandmommy Dorothy’s 100th Birthday! We were pretty excited to go down to VA to celebrate with her the next weekend. The other reason for celebration that day was that the long awaited 15th book in the Wings of Fire series was released! Blaine was so happy.
