March 2015

Winter took its time this year, but when it came it came strong! Church was cancelled on March 1st, so we spent the morning having our own little church service (the kids sharing their testimonies on the "stand" with the "microphone") and then built some snowmen with the wonderfully packable snow (most of the snow this year was dry powder).

We had two birthdays in March: Heather turned 6 and Joshua turned 4. As tough as parenting can be sometimes, it is so wonderful to reflect on how much they have grown in the last year. They really are amazing kids!

Kids got a new bunkbed with personalized bedding.

Best way to celebrate birthday is to share cupcakes with friends!

Birthday pancakes for breakfast of course.

Solar system cupcakes. For the boy who isn't always sure which dwarf planet is his favorite.

Although the month started off pretty cold and bleak, it warmed up enough a few times to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends.

Stephanie took a 5 month photo shoot of baby Joe and got a few really good shots!

And a few random pics.

Josh's respiratory problems kick in occasionally during winter. Makes for a sad, tired boy. :(

Green dinner for St. Patrick's Day.

Heather couldn't help dressing up after seeing the new Cinderella movie.

Wow, I'd hire her for the part!

Happiness.
