March misc

 Here are some random memories from March.

James, Lydia and Henry were doing sit ups during family night.  Kind of silly!


I was asked by Ms. Dorbeck (Alex's 3rd grade teacher) to make a photo prop for their pod.  It was challenging and fun!



Lydia gave up on naps but sometimes the afternoons just exhaust her!  I love finding her like this.



We had the Mathewson boys at our house one Saturday.  James needed to finish a hike for Webelos so he took James and Colton for a hike in the desert.  They had a blast!




They did a service during their hike by picking up trash that they found.



We remembered to celebrate pi day this year!    The boys requested chocolate cream and banana cream.




I've been wanting some sort of pie sign for my kitchen for ages.  I found a sign at Hobby Lobby that read "eat cake for breakfast".  I immediately knew I needed a "eat pie for breakfast" sign so I created one!



Lydia looked so cute in her brothers' old jammies!



I had the chance to attend stake youth conference.  Our theme was Peace in Christ.  For part of the conference we hiked up to a peace sign on the mountain above the temple.




 Lydia and I tested out some spiral curlers. Her hair turned out super cute!




For Rich's 40th birthday I asked people to write thoughts and memories to him.  I then attached them to 40 balloons and filled the living room.  He was super surprised and touched.


That afternoon Rich took the boys and headed to Arizona for Spring Training.  They said they had an awesome time!



 


While they were gone Lydia and I kept busy.  We went to the ward Easter Egg Hunt.



And we watched Tangled (and Lydia insisted on wearing her Rapunzal dress... of course.)



We even wore our "matchy" jammies.



The last week of the month was Spring Break.  We kept really busy!  We dyed Easter eggs.


We checked out the new exhibit at the Springs Preserve.  The boys really loved the snowboarding part.







 Lydia had fun at the library.



Everyone loved making rice krispie treat nests for their peeps.



And of course the Easter Bunny paid a visit on Easter Conference Saturday.
