March Madness 2016

As Emeril would say, we decided to "kick it up a notch" in March.  It was literally madness but in a good way.  We were able to spend lots of time with family and friends both near and far.  And...we actually remembered to take pictures, an improvement over the last two months.

• The annual school Science Fair was replaced with Stemfest, which made both the child and parents in our household very happy.  Mighty created a Lego set that does not currently exist to go with one of his favorite books, The Night Gardener.
• We were able to kick off a lacrosse season like no other.  Many games we were able to see two Wilhelmi boys midfield for the face-off and playing as teammates throughout the game.  This may never happen again, so we made sure we treasured every moment.
• Klein's dirt bike gear came together like a champ.  His bike, however, took a little longer to make an appearance.  Repairs that take all of your birthday money and then some aren't always quick.
• Sara Benolken has a way of getting even the hardest of eggs to crack at her Easter egg hunts.  This year was no exception.  Our bookends were smiling.
• Mighty's class took a field trip to a YMCA.  He thought it was going to be terrible, but he actually had a great time.  I was glad to be there for his change of heart.  
• We celebrated Nan and Gran with family and amazing friends from far away places.
• Easter was awesome.  Parker and Ben joined us for P's first egg hunt.  
• For Jackson's 12th birthday dinner, he chose fried shrimp.  We kind of twisted his arm a bit so we could eat together.  He loves shrimp any way it's cooked so I don't think it was a big deal.  He also chose his favorite dessert over a traditional birthday cake...Gooey Butter.
