We started off March with one more celebration: Dr. Seuss's Birthday. We enjoyed reading books, watching movies, and of course eating some green eggs and ham.

March brought warmer weather and we took advantage of being able to get outside more.
We took trips to the park
(Annabelle completed the monkey bars for the first time)
We ate outside
Even had popsicles
Built monsters out of tumbleweeds
Played basketball
Did some work with our "dump truck"
And we were able to walk home from school
We had a few colder days too and the kids kept themselves plenty busy inside.

We of course celebrated St. Patrick's Day by wearing green, eating more green eggs, and enjoying shamrock shakes (a surprise treat from daddy).

Then it was home to warmer weather and Easter weekend. We started off the weekend by going to a local Easter egg hunt. We then sent the kids on their own hunt at home, before we colored eggs, made dinner together, and headed out for a walk....enjoying our time as a family.
