March Madness Recap!

Tonight I want to wrap up March with a recap of some of our favorite memories in the Lindsay home.

DAVE'S BIRTHDAY

First, Dave had a birthday on March 8th! We had a few celebrations. Dave and I went out with our friends (the Hults, DuJardins and Johnstons) to one of Dave's favorite restaurants, Red Lobster, for Lobsterfest. Later that night, he went to bed and didn't get up for the next 3 days! A severe case of strep throat! A week later, we celebrated Dave's and our brother-in-law Steve's birthday with the Lindsay family. Dave and the kids with a cake his mother left for him on the front porch when he was sick on his birthday!
(Check out Dave's chest from his Jijitsu outfit)

A Surprise Party for Grandma Barbie
On March 22nd, we had a surprise party for Dave's mom. We met at our home to start BBQing. Dave called his mom with this story about how I had to meet with a bitter parent and he had an emergency patient to see and we needed a babysitter. Barbara wasn't happy since she and Dale were on their way out the door for dinner but said she would run over to our home quickly.

When she walked in, we were hiding behind our island and jumped up yelling, "Surprise!" She was shocked......and excited! Here are some pictures from our evening together.

Look at how Alyssa is the center of our family! :)

Grandma Barbie and her grandkids




I made a little dvd for Grandma for her birthday where I interviewed the kids about their grandma. It turned out so darling.

Austin Turns 4 Years Old!
For Austin's birthday, we threw a party for him at Chuck-E Cheese. He LOVED it! We met there after their Jijitsu lesson. The kids played and played, ate and ate and had a great time!
