Mother Nature's Practical Joke

You know how March is supposed to come in like a lion and out like a lamb? Both the beginning of March and end of March this year were kind of meh.

But the beginning of April? Mother Nature decided to play an April Fool's joke on all of us. After such a mild Winter, we got snow the beginning of April. And of course I didn't take pictures. And that's okay.

It cleared up and we've had some sunny days since then. 

I don't have pictures of the weather, but here is a picture of Jr. Jr. learning how to pass juggling balls with me. 

It's a lot more effective when I'm not trying to take the picture and juggle at the same time. Tee Hee.

That was not a sunny day as you can see. 

Easter 2024

March did not go out like a lamb this year. Last day of the month we got hail.

March 31 was Easter and appropriately National Tater Day since we like to have a potato dish with our dinner. Ham, creamy scalloped potatoes, rolls, spinach salad, and grape juice.

A couple days later the boys had an Easter egg hunt in the living room.

March Did Not Go Out Like a Lamb

March 31 was National Tater Day.

I ate potato chips.

The End.

Actually not the end. Remember how I mentioned that the weather wasn't bad the beginning of March? Well, at the end of March we had rain. So March did not go out like a lamb. But at least we weren't sick... on the last day of March.

March Goes Out Like a Lamb

Busy last day of the month, but the weather was pleasant. March did go out like a lamb even after it came in the same way.

March 31 was National Tater Day. I went around saying, "What's taters, precious?" And answering myself, "Po-Ta-To." Nichole has been reading The Lord of the Rings books and told me about how she read that part in The Two Towers not too long ago.

March 31 was also Manatee Appreciation Day. Jet and I watched some videos of manatees and watched the video for the VeggieTales song, "Barbara Manatee."

We delivered cookies that we made the night before to my niece for her birthday. Well, Jr. and I delivered them. The rest of the kids let me record them singing Happy Birthday to her so I could show her. Nichole came with me last time. Jr. came with me this time. We're slowly giving everyone a chance to see my grand-nephew. So weird to say since I have a baby who is only about a year older. I have a grand-nephew and a new son. Weird.

Nichole had another orchestra concert that night. Jeremy and Jr. went to support her. I supported her by making her dinner before she left and wishing her well and praying for her and... I supported her, too.
