So many things in March...

March was a busy month in school. First, there was the 100th day of school, celebrated with pajama day and "100" snacks (grapes, cheerios, nuts, m&ms, etc.). Then, we had the Spring Festival, which hundreds of people come to on a Saturday for fun, games, and food. Then, we had Sports Day last Thursday. Now, we will have Neon Colors Day tomorrow. It will be interesting! I'm ready for the Spring Break!

I also finally got the pictures from our buggy riding in February, so you'll get to see Chris doing some of his amazing stunts. By amazing, I mean crashing.

Sandstorm of the Year

And, the Sandstorm of the Year award goes to March 25th's apocalyptic-looking storm, hitting the city around 5:40pm and dying out somewhere around 9pm. We happened to be driving to our friends' house for dinner, so we got to drive in it! Quite the adventure, it's a little like driving in a white-out...only dirtier.
