Marchin' through March....

Besides Easter and birthdays, March was filled with...

Dr. Suess day at school--2nd graders read to Kindergarteners!


Getting ready for Morgan's baby shower...the kids helped me make "trail mix"...



And co-hosting Morgan's baby shower at Jena's house!




"Leave your advice for the mommy-to-be and her Little Deer"


"Scent Wafer" cookies, "Trail Mix", "Chocolate Moose Cups", "Bear-y Sweet Fruit", "Veggie Food Plot", "OH Deer! Chicken Pinwheels", and "Smokie the Bear's Lil' Smokies"were on the menu.  (Thank you Pinterest....)



Also in March, Connor started gymnastics, and Jace started Ninja Class....thinking that Jed's never home this time of year (or any time of year...) so why not find something to do..then Jerry goes and has open-heart surgery and Jed takes off work for a couple months to help more on the farm and whatdoyaknow...Jed is home a little more.  Geez.  It's been fun, the kids love it!  Connor is kind of hit or miss on cooperating...but so is everyone else in the class...


Little fun run on our road...Jace is getting good on his bike!  Angus tries to keep up!


I think we are sitting at the field, having a snack and watching a movie here...


The kids sure love helping with yard work!


Jace had a check up at Children's Mercy, so of course we drive by Cabela's while we are down there!




And catching up on Jace's artwork from school...it looks like he is always so busy!





And some of Connor's art from Barb's!


And last but not least...MUDDY PUDDLES!!!

Easter Afternoon....

We got to celebrate Easter with Brook and the rest of the Johnsons!






The kids get really good at Easter Egg hunting by the end of the weekend!

Easter!!

Easter comes early for us.  As in, 6:30 sunrise church.  Luckily they serve breakfast afterwards...






Pretty happy for early in the morning!



Easter was C-O-L-D.  So, we egg hunt in hats and gloves!




Twas the night before Easter..

And we celebrated at Grandma and Grandpa B's!
We dye eggs...







We egg hunt...
With a special section for the "little girls" and color-coded eggs for all!


Uncle Jed gets to start the egg hunt...
Notice Jace's camo..."It's an egg HUNT, Mom..."


Problem solving at it's finest with these two....





And we find bigger baskets inside...


Alexis is just glad to be hanging out!!


New shades, new rain boots, and new flip flops!

 



The gang's all here!


The girls got swim suit cover-ups too.  Thanks for modeling, Cassidy!


Looks like Alexis wasn't a fan of the sunglasses...
