it happened to be the Mardi Gras parade which we didn't have much interest in staying for but ended up having fun
I got a laser to the face at the dermatologist, more on that here.
We finally experienced Joe Patti's Seafood & loved it! Even got a picture of Mr. Joe Patti himself ;)
MATCH DAY - possibly the most stressful, exciting week this year.
The Relief Society General Women's Meeting happened and I got to hang out with these lovely ladies
We wrapped up March by celebrating Rick's match at Texas Roadhouse...a favorite of ours lately, we're yet to be disappointed. knock on wood
Life kind of slowed down for a week after Match Day...and it's pretty much been a high speed train since then! [i.e. the process of buying a house, traveling, Easter, job hunting, selling anything and everything we can, and pinching our pennies!] ...oh and the train is still going full speed.
That reminds me of a favorite quote: “Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he’s been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to just be people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey…delays…sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling burst of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.”― Gordon B. Hinckley
We're trying to enjoy this 'thrilling burst of speed' & be grateful for our many, many blessings :)
aaaaaaaaaand one last thing, it wouldn't be complete if I didn't post some monthly food pictures:
P.S. RICK GRADUATES IN LESS THAN A MONTH!!! Woooooooo, so proud. Although, as he would say, "I finally see a light at the end of the tunnel...but it's a freight train" ...
