March was a fairly chill month. I didn't mind!!
Rebecah decided a few months ago that she wanted to take up golf. She bought some clubs and tried out for the school team. She made the team and is very excited!! This is one of the only sports she can participate in because of the permanent effects from her concussions so we were both really excited that she made the team. Rebecah bought used clubs, but hated how ugly the golf bag was so she bought a new bag. The new bag is not pictured.
Eden's class was learning about persuasive writing in school. She wrote me a persuasive letter trying to persuade me to take her to McDonald's for French fries and a milk shake. She was very excited when her letter arrived in the mail and even more excited to go to McDonald's.
I celebrate St. Patrick's Day less and less each year. I didn't do any fun or festive food this year. No one seemed to care as long as the leprechaun still left "gold" (Rolo's candy) on the counter.
The snow is all gone. We had a lot of really warm days at the beginning of the month in the 50s, 60s and even one day in the 70s. Now that we are back to more seasonal temperatures, everyone feels colder.
Joseph and I celebrated our twentieth wedding anniversary. We decided to keep it simple this year and we just had a nice dinner and dessert at home with the kids.
Kimball is doing well. He moved to his last host family the last week in March. He really enjoyed living with the Wartenas but is looking forward to his last host family. It's starting to sink in that he only has three months left. Here are a few pictures from his month:
Kasteel de Haar
Pantropica--a hot house "zoo" with birds, fish and foliage.
Speed skating museum. Speed skating is HUGE in Friesland.
Rotary weekend in Apeldoorn
Kimball went with the Wartena family to this fun pancake house on a boat for a final family outing.
Kimball and Sjoerd.
Kimball has signed up for some bike races. He had his first race--77 km--at the end of March. He finished second and was very excited!
