March

March was an insanely busy month!

We went to the Shrine Circus with the Black family. This is the second time we have gone to the Shrine circus, and it keeps getting better every year! Rick got to go this year, so that was a huge blessing (he had drill last year).

The girls (Bekah and the Black girls) rode the elephant. Bek had wanted to do that ever since she realized you could!

 

I only was able to get pictures of the elephants, other than that.... I forgot and just watched the show. That's okay though. Elephants are Bekah's favorite animal!

March also meant the end of Upwards Basketball. Bekah had a great time at Upwards, learned a lot about the game, and is looking forward to doing it again next year! At the end, they had an awards ceremony, complete with a band for entertainment and a magician! The kids had a blast, and I thought the entire program that Upwards puts on, though the teaching of basketball, the games, fellowship, and biblical values was fantastic! 

New haircut! It was so long and raggedy! She loves it!

Chilling with her BFF.... notice the shorts? It's only MARCH!

Scrapbooking with Mommy. She designed that page :) (my little artist!)

The local Karate studio gave a free lesson to the kids at New Palestine Elementary, so of course we had to go! Bekah had a great time with Karate, and ended up signing up.... too bad later in the summer she asked to pick up another gymnastics class, but thankfully Rick was able to take her membership over at the Karate studio!

 

For spring break, we went with Bekah and our friends, the Bastin family, to Big Splash Adventure, an indoor water park in Southern Indiana. It was a HUGE place, with a game room, many slides (that Bekah would not go down!), lazy river, and a fantastic water structure. The kids had so much fun!

 

Bekah pretending she was tired..... but not really!

Some very tired girls.....
