March 2013

Here is the deal....I'm so far behind that I'm tempted to stop.  But I started looking through pictures and decided that I wanted an organized way for my kids to look back on memories.  I'm thinking that I will start going month my month until I catch up.  We'll see how that goes!

Here is the 3rd grade Character parade.  Peyton's class was the Chalk Box Kids. 

 March was also the month that we decided that we really wanted to get a play structure for our back yard.  Not wanting to pay for a new one we went with the much more environmentally friendly used version:) (Thank you craigslist).  Here is the before picture.  This was before my husband got his retired painting hands on it.  So glad he is so good at painting!!   

 Let the fun (and the paint everywhere on everything) begin!

  Finished product......drum roll please:) Looks SOO much better good work fam! Love it!

This is a recycled picnic bench grandma picked up for us at a garage sale.  Used to be pink but now looks brand new!Thanks Grandma K!

 Not sure if these were from my phone or Tims but for the record it was their first dip into our pool......It was on March 17th and still VERY chilly.  You can tell that it was impromptu decision by Max's underpants and Peyton's athletic shorts!  Crazy kids!

 I am so sad that these pictures turned out so bad.  This is when Peyton got student of the month.  It is a very big achievement and the kids get to go up in front of the school and the teacher talks about why they deserve being student of the month.  Perseverance was what he was chosen as student of the month for.  I was such a baby and cried happy proud tears.  Peyton works so hard in school and has such a great attitude even when the going gets tough!  Good job Pey we are so proud of you:)  Also in the picture is his 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Chamberlain who we just love.  She was such an amazing teacher for Peyton. 

 These next few pictures are of Addi's spring Easter Egg Hunt.  Her Kindergarten teacher was Mrs. Mack who was amazingly fabulous with the kids!

Once again here are stolen pictures from my sister Tina's blog.....

My sisters and their kids came out for spring break this year.  It was SUCH a fun trip!!!  We went to the zoo, Fair Tale Town, the Jelly Belly Factory, and the beach.  We even took the kids to the Sacramento temple and took some pictures;)  I was so glad my sisters braved the long road trip with all of the little munchkins!  We miss them all so much!
