March in Review

Since I do not get on here to post often, I am going to try to recap the month now.

Here is March......

The boys (3 of them) and dad got to go to a Gopher's Hockey game. They were so excited and had a great time. Thanks to Tom Peterson for the tickets! Nik got a shirt out like them and really wanted to go too. So we made cookies and ate a whole bunch of them.

We had a Seder meal - meatloaf (no lamb), celery with ranch dressing, apples with cinnamon and nuts, spinach (in the vegetable lasagne), unleavened bread we made, and grape juice. We washed each others hands.

We had some outdoor snow fun!

We had fun finding the Easter baskets with the rope mazes. We also had SNOW on Easter!

We went to church everyday during Holy Week. The kids were so good getting up each morning, Mon through Wed to go to 8:30 am Mass. Then we went to Holy Thursday and Good Friday Masses, which are usually longer. We were actually sick on Holy Saturday, but made it to Mass On Sunday for Easter. Fr. James passed out colored Easter Eggs to the children. He also made this beautiful rosary with the eggs in baskets (10 for 10 Hail Marys and bows for the Our Fathers). It was very neat.

We went on a field trip to tap Maple trees. The kids got to tap trees and collect the sap. Then they watched the sap be turned into sugar and maple syrup. They tasted the yummy syrup.
The horse wagon ride was fun too.

Here is a naughty boy! Nik is throwing eggs over the ledge in our living room. Luckily they are plastic! I do not know where he came up with this idea!
He also tries to sneak out the door....nice shoes!

Finally a trip to the Zoo...that is always fun..
