March So Far (Picture Post)

March Happenings

Staged picture.  ;)  Matt lost.

Sister-in-law at Cousin's Wedding Shower held at my mom's house

My mom knows how to throw a beautiful shower.

My other sister-in-law!

Part of the banner I made for the bride and groom - see the following pictures - banner in background.

The Bride (my cousin) and Groom to Be  :)

Bride's sister (my other cousin) and my daughter

My sweet boy with my sweet niece.

The ladies in my family who came to the shower.  Emilia is sitting on my mom's lap.

Going on a family walk/bike ride!

YUM

He loves to steal my tea...  :)

Oh those hands...

More tea (a common occurrence at our house) sweetened with yummy homemade maple syrup.

Love those lips.

Cuteness!

Silly brothers

Favorite game to play right now.

This is how you can usually find Emilia.

Cooked the sap a little too long.  I prefer it when it's lighter in color.  But this was still quite tasty!

Ordered some new curriculum because the kids have flown through their other stuff already.  Pretty fun to get some new stuff before the year is over.  Helps us stay excited!

This particular morning was in need of a specific schedule - not something I do everyday...

Sometimes school needs to come last if the whole house and kids all need a good cleaning.  :)

And again with the chess...

Love these kids.

Games with Daddy

Nate is so good about playing games with the kids. He does this often. Sorry is one of their favorite games. I sometimes join in the game-playing, but more often I have "Tommy duty" - you know, making sure he doesn't take their game pieces or climb on the table. ;)
