Getting Through March

March is usually one of my least favorite months. Not sure what the weather is like everywhere else but here it is sooooooo rainy. It kills me. Aside from that there is usually not much going on. I guess there is St. Patti's day but.. Come on? Anyways, what I'm getting at is this March has been awesome! There have been so many fun things going on, friends visiting, and enough 30 minute sun breaks in our rainy days to make it sorta feel like Spring!
Natalie came to visit at the beginning of the month. Yes she lives in Colorado but I still manage to see her often. I love that! My family has discovered a new passion. Karaoke. Me and Casey go crazy with it. When Nat came in town I borrowed my parent's Karaoke Machine and we had a blast!
I've added a few 'Springy' touches to the inside of my home to make it feel sunny. I sewed some new pillow covers for my couches and I must say I am really starting to love sewing! (I seriously never thought I would say that!) I sewed a total of 8 pillow covers, which was a lot of work (for me) but I'm happy with how they turned out.
If nothing else, THESE are the highlight of my March every year. I have already gone through three bags... plus two boxes of the cream eggs.... Why are these candies SO GOOD?
Being lazy on a Sunday afternoon.
My first thought was 'Oh my gosh what a waste of toilet paper!!'.... my second thought was 'Oh my gosh where is my camera???' I think I wanna frame this and put it in my bathroom.
This was a HUGE highlight, my Grandma Chapman came to visit! My Dad brought her here from Moses Lake. We had Casey's birthday party over at our house. We sang some Karaoke and did a little dancing, it was actually a really fun party. My Grandma loved it!
Happy Birthday Casey!
This picture is totally goofy, but I love it.  I can't get enough of my little Baylor!
One person's trash is another's treasure! My friend Kendall was getting rid of her wooden IKEA slide and a wooden train/car table... SCORE! We have been spending lots more time in our bonus room now that we have some fun new toys!!!!

After 11 months Wesley finally decided he was willing to put some weight on his legs! He can stand!
This was yesterday. Two of my best friends Brenna and Katie came over for a lunch and baby play date! We were all pregnant at the same time. It is so fun to get the babies altogether. I love these girls! (and the cute babies!)
Rose, Whitney Parker and Wesley :)

I love those mini Cadbury eggs too! Matt doesn't get it but what does he know. I have been thinking about how to get my hands on that dance game since I left! That was so fun! I don't think I can justify the purchase until my birthday. We will have to play next time we are in town!
