We love a little green in the last part of winter. Although our leprechaun trap was quite good this year, the little guy managed to escape, pee in our toilet, and led us on a scavenger hunt to find candy of gold (aka Rolos). The next week the children had a snow day after 15" dropped down and the wind blew. We made sure to wait until after lunch to attempt the sledding hill this time, but still got a bit bogged down.
A day later it was sunny & 50* so we played in the snow -- K even just had short sleeves on. It was a glorious way to spend time after school.

We got oven more snow a few days later and our neighborhood Easter egg hunt was postponed until April.
M & K each got a ski day with Dad in March and he reported they did great and had lots of fun. I'm so happy to have a husband who takes my kids skiing one-on-one. He is just the perfect husband for me!
One last thing: the 2016 Tour of Nations. I wasn't sure if this would be great or boring, but it was great! The GS put it on every year and it is a great way to learn about other countries. Of course the former social studies teacher in me had to love that. There were presentations, food, booths, activities, and souvenirs for the children to enjoy. I think they will be more than happy to go again next year.
