March on my iPhone

I'm not great about carrying my camera around anymore. It's just so much more convenient to whip out my phone! Here are a few gems from March. The bluebonnets showed up in February this year! Unheard of! They have been so pretty this year (as opposed to a bust last year) and I took the opportunity to take some pics of Mary Beth. The boys weren't thrilled with the idea of bluebonnet pics, so they opted out.

We enjoyed a day in Dallas on St. Patrick's Day. Bryon was anxious to spend the day with us after he was a bachelor all Spring Break, and we enjoyed just hanging out with Michael and family. Mary Beth adored feeding John David!
These two love each other so much!


This was MB's dance costume two years ago. It doesn't quite fit anymore, but Lydia loves to dress up in it!
Perhaps the best thing about church parking lots!! Matthew loves taking the car for a spin every now and then (when the place is clear!). He's actually incredibly good at driving. After all, he started driving for the first time at age 2...but that's a different story!
Matthew had a bunch of friends over one Friday night, and this picture cracks me up. MB is right in the middle of them! She adores those boys, and they treat her like a queen!

Sweet look alike cousins! We took James to the park this weekend. What a doll!
Thomas got to get the pie in the face at our school's Spring Fling. It is a big deal to get to do this as "seniors" of elementary school!

Thomas was playing goalie a few weeks back. A kid kicked the ball so hard into Thomas's thigh that it left a soccer ball inprint on his leg! The good news is that the shot was blocked, and we won by 1 point. Go Thomas!
Mary Beth being Mary Beth!
Sweet, happy Gus! He has loved that his family is spending more time in the back yard.

Pot planting day. MB and I put 8 pots together. I'm not going to lie. The fact that she could hardly wait to plant with me makes me so proud! She even wanted to make a pot for just "skunkulants" (succulents).
Lauren and Baby Ben's baby shower!

Mary Beth and Whitney (her bff) were allowed to come to the shower if, and only if, they were on their best behavior. They were so good until the last 5 minutes when they decided to make themselves look like cave women.
