April is Amazing


Springtime is time for new things.  Babies are born, flowers bloom, the weather is reported as being the best time of the year.  Fishing is heating up in SW Florida waters.  Snook season is here and tarpon as well as Grouper are also freely available.

Moods start to lift also with all of the great things going on around us in April.  I for one was born in April so it has always been my favorite month.  Although now I am not as happy about the years passing so quickly as when I was a kid.

Jamie Foxx is back as the voice of Nico in Rio 2.  The first was a blockbuster and this second round is poised to be just as successful.  Great family movie!  Captain America's The Winter Soldier is out and is a huge Blockbuster coming in just under Rio 2. 

April is also National Autism Awareness Month.  With 1 in 68 children living with some form of Autism, it is important to be involved in some way to help and be part of helping make a better world for those with Autism.

Easter also falls in April this year and many are making plans to be with family and friends!  Sadly the Holiday is very little about Jesus and so much more about eggs and bunnies for my liking.  The reason behind this dates back to pagan times when eggs for decorated this time of year to symbolize rebirth.  Bunnies were also a part of the pagan celebration.  The two got mixed together and became what we call Easter.  I for one do not celebrate the egg and candy thing.  We all make up our minds based on what we believe to be right for us and that's ok too.  I just choose not to.  We do however remember that Jesus was risen back to life and is alive today and we want to celebrate and honor Him on that day.

We are also in Daylight Savings Time and enjoy the extra daylight each day by spending more time outside enjoying the weather in our outdoor kitchen and heated pool. 

Whether you are planning for vacation or seeing Rio 2 or planning your Easter Holiday, remember to show love to those around us and if you can be involved in some way this month with Autism Awareness Month.  Make a difference in someone's life.
