Eggs, a birthday & a vacay! March Madness 2016

The month of March was filled with adventure at NSMS. The children have been checking the weather for lion or lamb days.  As of today we are tied. The kids have mixed colors and made rainbows. The children painted eggs and made bunnies! They have read about the traditions of St. Patrick's Day. The children celebrated St. Patrick’s Day by making green butter and eating it with rainbow bread.

A bunch of bunnies. 
 At home we had our own decorating party. The kids did a PHENOMENAL job decorating the eggs. They needed no help from mom and dad, we just sat back and enjoyed.

Always have to be silly

My beautiful, smart, fabulous, independent daughter, how we love her.  

The children had a great Easter egg hunt in the snow; over 1000 eggs were found by the kids. It was a cold day but the kids had a blast.

Happy 

Sad 

oh happy again....

This month also we also now have a 6 year old. Michael had a great birthday celebration with his friends and family. Thanks to everyone for celebrating with us. He had many presents the most important of which was losing his first tooth!We saw the dentist and doctor this month, everyone is healthy and growing.  









hmmm.....how hard do i have to blow to get all those candles out 

On your mark 

Get set

GO! 

Happy birthday buddy, we love you more than  words!

Michael also had his last (wipe tears here) birthday celebration at Montessori - around the sun and back again. He chose only boys friends to be his candles this year and his teachers allowed him to pick a book to take home. 





Lastly, MANY MANY thanks to my Mom, Dad, Carolyn and Mike for watching our family while Tony and I celebrated 10 years of marriage in Mexico! It was so wonderful to spend time with each in such a beautiful place. How much I adore this man and what he has given me, I couldn't ask for a better partner and friend in life.  I'm so excited to see how the next chapter turns out! We will be doing this again VERY soon :) 











This pic sums up  our time here, love and laughter!
