It's the last day in March and the sun is shining down finally. The kids are at the park having a picnic and I am trying to get some work done before April consumes my life.
March finally came and flew by very quickly for us. My mom came home on the 13th, Cam got braces and Will had a fun trip to New Orleans.
And today the last day of the month we excepted an offer on our house. It looks like we will be moving around the 22 of April. Which means we will have lived in our house 11 years and 7 days and we thought we would only be here for 5 years. For the most part we are all excited about this change in our life, but I think we are all a little anxious.

February is all done!
February was a long month for me....it seemed like we had a lot going on and everytime I turned around something else was coming up. March doesn't look much calmer, but we have seen the sun and now we have a little rain to help my bulbs push through the ground. My trees are even budding!!
Speaking of budding, Keegan is growing like the weeds I didn't pull from my flower garden last fall. He has grown an inch in the last six months and I am hoping that he will grow twice that in the next six. Outside of replacing all of his pants and shorts, I am not seeing a downside to it. Keegan also had his school musical in February, after two long months of practicing it turned out great. He was terrific!! And made us proud as always. He has also been asked to serve as Seminary class President and the Teachers Quorum 2nd Counselor. He also finished up ref'ing for Jr. Jazz. He really loved it and I am kicking myself for not ever going and taking pictures of him doing it.
Bracken is a serious little student, he likes to have his homework done and get great grades. He is really liking his art class and is looking for to 3-D Design next year. He has enjoyed hanging out with his friend Nate constantly over the last few months. Sometimes it feels like we have a 4th son around here (which is fine with me). Track and tennis can't start soon enough and if he gets his way he will be playing soccer in the fall.
Cam is getting so big. He had his top braces put on last month and will get the bottoms on in a few weeks. He is still interested in building things and want to photography classes this summer. Maybe he can talk his nana into the classes with him. He will be starting swim lessons in a few months and running the neighborhood with his friends. Cam is still quite the funny man, he recently put together a petition to have school started earlier so he could have more time after school to do what he wants. It will be fun to hear what comes of it.
McKinley is beginning to look really big or old. I don't know what it is about turning ten but the little girl look is leaving and a new older girl is arriving. It is fun to watch her change, but I am sad to see my little one disappear before my eyes. She is looking forward to going to a week long camp with her friend Emma this summer. They will be kayaking, swimming, riding horses and doing other camp stuff. She is very excited and I am happy for her to have this experience, but a little scared too.
Will and I are still planning our Texas trip...still because i need to get on and but the tickets! I just finished the planning of the family trip that we moved up to April to save on gas and hotel prices. I can wait to be in sunny, Southern California for 9 days. We will be going to see the Tolley's for a few days and then spend the rest of time with the Whitworth's. It should be a great time!
