Detours Along the Way to Heaven: March Madness

I'm sorry once again for the gap in updating! Life has been crazy as usual and a month and a half have already slipped by!

Marcellus being prayerful and kneeling down for the rosary to be like his brother (William generally kneels for the rosary)

William enjoying his birthday gift from Aunty Miriam! He loves the stories and sat here for a good while just flipping through the pages. Thank you Aunty Miriam!

There's nothing the boys like more than projects with Daddy...and then of course playing with whatever he puts together! This was right before the cart, for Zenith's work, went crashing into our french doors and smashed the glass *face palm*...Another project for Daddy!

Handsome boy dressed for Church

This guy was ready for a nap

A man who does ironing?? I'll keep him! (He also does laundry, vacuuming, mopping, diaper changing, kid bathing, fixing glass doors, holes in the wall, and much more...I love this guy!) :)

My parents gave each boy $1 to spend at the dollar store for St. Patrick's Feast Day and this kid was pretty happy with his new helicopter. Thank you Nana and Bumpa!

Corned beef, carrots, potatoes and sauerkraut for St. Patrick's and St. Joseph's feast day

After a particularly hard day when I wasn't feeling well and needed to get out of the house (I haven't really been able to get out much by myself due to health issues), Zenith came home and proposed we all go out to eat. That guy might as well have been in a red cape because he couldn't have been any more of a hero to me in that moment! We discovered our new favorite place, a local Mexican restaurant Plaza Azteca, and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Believe me, it was just what this Mama needed.

The boys were very happy to munch on tortilla chips the whole time

And what's a day out without a beer and a lava bowl full of chicken, steak, and veggies?

While my Aunt and Uncle were up in the area, we were all able to get together at my sister Chrissy's house for a visit. These two just played in here for awhile, putting legos together...it was so cute!
