Hello and happy Monday!
Well, it’s the last day of March…Can you believe it? We still have one more week of school before spring break, but I think once we get back from break, it will feel like the downhill slide to summer!
Here’s a look back on this month:
Hadley spent lots of time on the volleyball court. She started the month playing in a tournament in Lexington, and then last weekend had a tournament in Louisville. Her team only has two tournaments left in the season, and the girls have been so fun to watch.
This month, indoor track season wrapped up. Hadley ran the 400m at the indoor state track meet, and had a PR. Then, the kids started their outdoor track season, and had their first meet last week with another meet coming up this week.
Hadley had a summer job interview which feels like some kind of rite of passage. She’s excited to earn a little money this summer.
We celebrated St. Patrick’s Day, and I made corned beef and cabbage. My brother and his family joined us for dinner per tradition.
Hayden had fun attending a few Kentucky basketball games including a home game and then some of the NCAA games that were in Lex over the past few weeks.
When we were in Louisville, we tried Swig for the first time, and it was delish.
We’ve enjoyed the sunshine, and I’ve gotten my steps in most days in March. It’s funny to think about all the snow, ice and cold temps in January, but with a bit more time on my hands, I was able to start 2025 strong with quite a few workouts. February…not so much! …but March with some pretty good weather and my desire to listen to audio books helped me get back on track, especially with walking quite a few days a week.
This past weekend, we celebrated my niece who’s getting married this summer. Hadley and I traveled to Louisville on Saturday for the bridal shower.
March was a good month! I’m hoping for some downtime and some more sunshine in April.
What was the highlight of your month?

That sounds like a lovely month! I’m trying to get my youngest to look for a job not only for this summer but for this last year of high school too. The pickings are pretty slim though and I’m trying to help him find something he’s at least a little bit excited about doing.

It was a good month but also kind of uneventful haha …(outside of our norm) I’m glad this first job has an end date just since it’s her first one and just at the pool. We’ve talked about some good options maybe for next summer when she’s older and can drive. I’ve suggested the Bundt cake place 😆bring me some leftovers home!

A first job is so exciting! You will really feel like the end of school goes fast with such a late spring break. I was always so ready for summer but not ready for my kids to be the next grade older. High school went by so fast!

I’m using your monthly moment idea to start writing a “monthly digest” post – thanks for the inspiration. Mine will come out tonight – trying to squeeze it in by the end of the month. 🙂

Love these monthly moment posts! I’d have to say what stood out for me was being outside with the kids a lot, and Hadley having a softball tournament.
