March updates

 The girls and I had so much fun going to the Beauty and the Beast show.  It was such a fun musical.  We all decided to wear our new boots to the show.
 For Valentines Day  we played a game and all the kids won different coupons.  I will definitely do that again.  They loved it because it reached a lot of their love languages.
 Brrr....It's still Winter here.  The girls walk to school everyday and they do a great job.  They have two other friends that they walk with.  Brynn just earned her new ear muffs by being ready everyday for a week. She struggles staying focused in the morning, but she did it!
 We listen to music as we do chores on Saturdays and Connor thought it would be fun to climb on the kitchen table and dance!!  He looks like  a surfer too.  Here we come Hawaii!
 Connor is almost two and he sure is a boy.  Climbing and all!  He looks like he is body boarding here.  We really can't wait for Hawaii!
 Happy Birthday  Dr. Seuss!  We enjoyed the green eggs and ham.
 Connor loves his eggs!
 Got mail?  We love getting money from grandma and grandpa. Go Green!
 Our first cousin went on a mission to Washington so we sent him a tie and and some of his favorite treats.  Our favorite was making him the origami ties and shared scriptures with him to keep him going.
 These boys wrestle everyday and Connor is always the instigator!
 I love subway art.  It's my newest holiday decoration.
 Kamren performed for us at his band concert.  He is done with his clarinet and ready to start percussion.  It's amazing the difference from the Fall concert.  Andrew still hums the star wars music they played for us.
 We carry this tradition on to make bird's nest for the Easter season.  Ashleigh isn't eating gluten and dairy because it helps her eczema so we found a  good cupcake recipe for her. Kam and Ash were great helpers with these treats.
 Kamren is sad to see wrestling season over but he's grateful for his experience.  I am so thankful for his coaches.  Kam is ready to do wrestling all through middle school.
 The kids had fun finding their St. Patrick's day treasure.  They got skittles, chocolate with gold wrapper, and lucky charms.
 Here are all the clues that they found.  Ashleigh and Andrew are so similar in personality.  It's so sweet.
 Kam's favorite was eating the lucky charms. This year I cut out a shamrock for all of the kids and Kevin and  I told them how "lucky" I was to have them and a few things I loved about them.
I just got back from Time Out for Women.  I loved the spiritual boost that I received.  It was fun running into old friends.
 Kam is so excited to take drum lessons.  He has a great teacher.
 WE aren't getting much sunshine so I had to make a wreath to brighten up our home.
 It was fun to talk to John Bytheway after our Friday evening session of Time Our For Women.  We had about 25 sisters from our area go.
 Elder Oakes daughter was amazing.  I loved meeting them after they performed.
 I loved listening to Abe  in our ward perform.
 Rachel was so sweet to give me a guest ticket and see everyone for lunch behind the stage.
 The kids and I made resurrection rolls for the Easter season.  I missed them in the picture.  They are right on  the stove.
Brynn loves to read.  She wants to be just like her sister.
