March 2024

March was a big month! Lily's 12th birthday, Easter, and the start of our Spring break trip all fell on the same day. Not to mention, Lily got braces a couple of days before her birthday (it instantly aged her!).  It was a busy and fun month and here's to one more year of "child" before my oldest becomes a teen.  ❤️   






Escape room party with old friend Avery.

My running partner to raise money for Sandy Hook. We don't make it out on runs together, often, but just love it when we do! 

Boys SPT trip.



Look who started drinking Shirley temples. ;)



Pretty skies waiting in Lil's carpool








Dressing up for Dr. Seuss' birthday.

Crew started soccer with a couple of preschool friends.  It took him a couple of weeks to warm up and then you could tell he's a natural!

I know you wished for a bunny... :)

Before bday snuggles!


Off to the airport.



Off to FL. This was everyone but Lil's first flight (and she was tiny when she last flew, so kind of a first for her, too). There were some nerves from the girls but everyone did great.





Beautiful inside and out! How did you instantly age so much, though?!



Here's to a year full of health, happiness, and growth!  Love you to infinity!
