April was a busy and super fun month for us. A lot of good things happened in our life too!
Steve took Steven to ComicCon in the beginning of the month. They had a great time! Steve was super excited to show off all his nerdy-ness to Steven, who has really been into super heroes lately. It was perfect timing as SpiderMan has become one of Steven's favorite shows to watch. Dan and Meghan sent Willow's old costume to us for Steven to wear. It comes complete with fake muscles! Steven LOVED it and he still wears it all the time. Here they are getting ready to go.

I didn't go with them because of the ticket price but Steve said they had a great time. He said Steven was sort of stunned by all the characters and a little shy. But they found someone his own size and Steven loved that.
We've been having some spring weather FINALLY! So we've been trying to take advantage of that. Like I said in March's post, we have sort of a weird backyard. We live up on a hill which is great but the backyard is on a pretty steep incline. Plus the back of our house goes all the way down to a pretty busy street so we were really worried Steven would take off. Also, the dogs got loose like 1000000 times since we've moved in. So all of this to say, we needed a fence. We ordered one from Home Depot and they put it in this month.

We sort of got screwed on the property line too because we have a pie shaped yard where two straight lots meet. Oh well, we didn't know that when we bought the house but it definitely wouldn't have stopped us from buying it.
The guy who came to put in our fence was amazing. We thought it would be an entire crew and stuff, nope, one dude. His name was Clarence and he was extremely nice. He talked to Steven and put up with Steven in his face asking about his tools and stuff. He was also an extremely hard worker. OMG He put up our entire fence on this stupid incline by himself in 2 days. I can't imagine how many times he went up and down that hill. We were so grateful.
Since we had some nice weather, Steve took advantage of it and the big hill we live right next to by teaching Steven to fly a kite over there. We had some pretty windy days. Here are actions shots of them flying kites. Steve got it up super high.

| Can't see the kite bc its practically up towards the moon! |
Here's Steven running home because he's mad that he can't touch the kite in the air...lol

| So obviously that was a huge success lol |
Steve and I had a big date night in April. I was SO excited. We went to see Billy Joel in concert. I have loved his music ever since I was little and have always wanted to see him in concert. He has come quite a few times over the years but I've never gone. This year, I said we should go before he stops touring. So we went! It was great! The tickets were so expensive so we had nose bleed seats. These pictures are horrible but we had a great time.

We've had so much fun this month just hanging around the house with our two goofballs. I put them in matching jammies one night and it was a big hit! They loved it. Steven keeps asking if they can match some more.

Here are some other random shots from just hanging out with our kiddos this month:
