What happened to March?

What happened to the month of March? Life is crazy and busy as usual. We made yet another trip to the Mall of America today. The kids love the rides so much, especially Stella. She wants to ride on all of the big roller coasters and tall drop rides- it's crazy but she just can't get enough. We made a quick visit to sit on the Easter Bunny's lap on our way through the mall. Stella was especially excited this month about St Patrick's Day and leprechauns. She came home from school every day with a new leprechaun story and so we all joined in the spirit and built a leprechaun trap. Charlie loves playing in the trap and is the one who keeps getting stuck. And as you can see, we think big produce is funny for some reason. When we came across this gigantic banana in the store- we just couldn't pass it up. I'm glad my kids share my odd sense of humor sometimes.
The kids have enjoyed some nice weather, already riding bikes, playing on the swing set and digging in the sand box. We just can't wait for summer to come! Also, our family loves the show American Idol. Stella is practicing all the time, getting ready for her audition in 11 years!
