Well, March is flying by, and mostly because we have been so busy and there is no plan on slowing down until March is over.
Tuesday, March 8 was Mardi Gras. Now, I have never celebrated Mardi Gras, don't have a reason to, but Jill and Cari were coming to visit on that day so it seemed like a good reason to have a party.
Mardi Gras masks!!
Jill and Cari were here for a whole week. This was Cari's gift from Grandpa Max and Grandma Charlotte. Although her 13th birthday was back in September, this was the best time for her to come. We got manicures and pedicures, shopped, saw a movie, shopped, she and Kevin went to Six Flags and we spent one day in Ft. Worth. It was SO much fun!!!! Macey and Xander love their cousin Cari and Aunt Jill, and I love my sister and my niece, so it worked out great! :)
One of the pony rides in Ft. Worth. I wish I could tell you she loved it, but after she cried on all four of the ones we tried we stopped spending our quarters.
Jill and Cari stayed until the 15th, which happens to be especially close to my birthday, so my family sent gifts with them so we had a mini party on the last night they were here.
Enjoying Mama's chocolate birthday cake!
This last picture is just a Mommy bragging moment. Macey LOVES to draw and write. We spend time tracing and she just loves to "write" her name and words. Macey and Xander have those magna-doodle boards and they usually want us to draw something for them. Well, apparently, Macey wanted Kevin to draw a happy face, which is a common request. So, Kevin drew one on her board. She then took Xander's board and went to work. She didn't say a word, just started drawing, and this is what she showed us when she was done...
Um, I was pretty impressed!!! Way to go Macey!

Oh. My. Goodness. I LOVE this entry and the photos, and Macey's doodle just tops them all! Holy cow. She seems way too old in that pic, though. Make her slow down!!!
