Enjoy this April meal plan with a printable calendar and easy, family-friendly recipes.
It’s April! With weather as mild as we’ve been having, I believe it! I might be jinxing us, but I washed and put away my boys’ snow pants and winter boots. I wasn’t naive enough to put away the winter coats yet, but I’m hoping we won’t have to bust out the heavy snow gear. So if we get a blizzard in Nebraska at the end of the month? You’ll know it’s my fault!
This April is a fun month for us! We have 2 Easter celebrations. We have 2 birthday boys in this month. We have 2 boys playing Baseball this year. We have 2 boys playing in a piano recital. We have Spring Break. We have our firstborn starting his first “punch a time clock, get a paycheck every 2 weeks” job. We have a landscaping project. We have a fairly significant home maintenance scheduled. We have an international vacation planned! All kinds of fun things! But I’ll menu plan through it. That way I have the desserts at the right celebration. The right Birthday cakes made on the right days. And it’ll go a fair way towards helping me stay sane! Plan with me! Whether you use this one or one you make yourself, a menu plan will bring you more peace in the kitchen. Want a menu plan that’s even more simple than this one? AND includes a shopping list?
