Some March Fun

We have filled March with a bunch of fun activities! We had a fun little party at Grandma and Papa Ray's new house in Layton to celebrate Davis and Jordyn's recent birthdays! Davis loved having cupcakes again!

 This is just a picture of the biggest and littlest before church one Sunday. I think Hudson was still getting ready. I can't even express how much we are loving 9:00 church- Sundays are back to being a little more restful and our kids are so much better behaved at church. And as a fun bonus, Davis has been sweetly drifting off to sleep in my lap in Sunday School every week and I get to snuggle him, which is basically heaven for me!

 Classic March weather here- snow some days, beautiful sunshine some days! Whenever we get a sunny day we take full advantage of it! We've been to a few different parks, usually with friends, and had a great time! This fun park across from the library really makes for a good combo (library first, then we play). It's designed for kids ages 5-12, and we've been to it many times since the boys were 1-3 years old. Now that they are older they really can enjoy the full range of fun activities this park offers! Chase was so pleased with himself that he can now climb this whole rock wall.

 We had a Pi day party! It was a rainy Wednesday night and I spent a good portion of that day making pies. I made four! (Lemon sour cream, key-lime, apple and chocolate) We had the Booyses, Baccioccos, Josephs and Rohbocks over (which is so many little kids running around our house!) and everyone had a great time! We love a good excuse to eat pie.

 Then it was St. Patrick's Day! The boys really wanted to make leprechaun traps this year and they all met up at Baccioccos one day and put these simple little traps together. I love them because they were 100% their own ideas and creations. I just sent them with some supplies and they did the rest! They set them out Friday night and found the gold coin they used as bait was gone in the morning, and Lucky the Leprechaun left them a little note.

I heard Chase get up early on Saturday morning and go check out the scene downstairs. He was very disappointed that he didn't catch a leprechaun and also declared "Everything is boring down there! He didn't turn the milk green or make a mess or ANYTHING!" (Oops...) Once he discovered Lucky's note he felt better. Also, green pancakes were a hit with all three boys! 

 Also we told them that we did catch a little leprechaun....DAVIS!

 We've been to the discovery museum a few times this month and it's always such a hit with all three kids! I'm so glad we have so many fun things to do around here, which makes winter and dreary weather so much easier for us to handle!

I had my nieces here one day and I snapped a few pictures of Davis and Anna. They really didn't cooperate very well and got fairly distracted by the crackers I was trying to use to bribe them to sit still and be happy. But we got a few candid shots that I love. These two! I think they'll be great friends as they grow up!
