Donovan Household Update

So, it's been a while since I've posted anything.  As a family, we have been extremely busy... or at least it feels like we have!  Fourth grade is crazy this time of year with at least twenty new portfolio pieces to read each night on top of all the other papers and grad school has required a little more of me the past two weeks as well.  I think I'm getting caught up!!  Kermie has been busy with the military and his business.  And, Ella is busy wanting to do anything and everything!!

This past weekend was wonderful on a more positive note.  Kermie, Ella and I stayed home ALL DAY Saturday.  We took naps, cleaned the house, played outside... it was great!  We actually did go into town for dinner though---- we picked up Cracker Barrel, rented a movied and head right back home! On Sunday, we went to church at Southland.  (Another huge deal in my house at the moment.)  We cannot decide where we are suppose to be as far as church goes.  We had been going back to Grace and enjoy it, but we also love Southland so much too.  This weekend was the first weekend we had attempted taking Ella to the nursery at Southland.  She did wonderful!!! We were both so proud! :) 

Other than this there is not much going on around here.  I am excited to be planning vacation this summer.  We are still not sure of the exact week and location because of Kermie's drill, but we know for sure we will be at the beach some where!  I know Ella will love it!  Also, I am really looking forward to warm weather!  Ella and I have been on our regular walking kick and she cries to go "stroll".  We have the best walks and time at our park.  Dear God bring on the warm weather and let it last!!!!!
