March Madness or Luck of the Irish?

We are officially into March and with that comes many things at our house. But the most important is college basketball. I guess now that we are residents of MD we can say "Go Terps!" Never thought I'd be cheering a turtle on. And in the midst of basketball frenzy the kids start their search for gold and other treasures left by leprechauns. So far no luck. But the kids continue the search. Happy St. Patricks Day!!

We are adjusting to life in Maryland! Morgyn is close enough to walk to school! Jadyn and Torbyn bus it to school! Brittyn and Mommy are home together having fun and Dad is learning the ropes with his new job. Jeff is also starting his second class towards his Masters with Gonzaga.

We had a great Christmas! Only half of our tree fit in the house. But we made it work. In the end it still filled our window and Jeff was satisfied.
Before Christmas we took a trip on the Metro to D.C. and saw our nations capital in person and of course the 76 ft tree from Montana! The kids also loved the Natural History Museum!
A couple of days before Christmas we also drove to the DC temple to enjoy the lights. Not exactly like Temple Square but it worked!
Morgyn represented our family well today with a great youth talk about service. She was very poised for her first talk in Sacrament Meeting.
