Best Man Competition!

Andrew and Carolyn will be getting married in September and we are so excited for the wedding! Andrew decided for his best man he would have his 3 brothers compete in a series of competitions he put together to determine the best man! The competition was held in Cleveland this weekend and in typical March fashion it was competitive and very fun to watch! 

The groom and his potential best men!

There were a total of 6 events - kool aid flavor tasting - the March boys always mix 2 flavors of kool aid at a time and they had to guess x3 which kool aid combinations Andrew came up with.

The second event was catching a growing stack of pennies being thrown from the elbow

Uncle mike - What a stud!

The third event was 3 rounds of the triangle golf tee puzzle 

Don't mess up! Soo much concentration! 

The 4th game was throw the frisbee in the garbage can - this one took a long time!

The 5th event was an extra long corn hole throw and the 6th and final event to determine the best man was 6 rounds of playing the groom in Rock Paper Scissors! 

After a tough 6 rounds in the Best Man Games the winner was decided by one point:

Congratulations Joe!!!

We all had so much fun sitting outside on a beautiful day and cheering the boys on! Andrew's idea was so clever and fitting for the way these boys like to make everything a competition! 

Grandma March was for sure the biggest fan! She loved watching the boys!

What a great day and Memorial Day weekend spent with the family in Cleveland! 

Heading to the Valley View Memorial Day Parade! 

Joe and I even got to sneak away on Saturday to a wedding in Pennsylvania and left Jack with his Grandma and Grandpa!

We had a great day with some of our college friends celebrating Mike and Erica!

Lunch Break Adventures!

Cincinnati you are Beautiful!!!!

Today Jack and I met Joe downtown for lunch, playing at the park, riding the carousel, and playing in the fountains! It is a gorgeous day and we had such a nice time!! 

I'm 36 weeks pregnant (tomorrow!) and we are just soaking up life with one baby! The weather has helped us get out and enjoy so much of the city! Being downtown is definitely my favorite and most frequently visited park! 

The carousel opened up downtown last weekend and jack got to take his first ride! He wanted to try out a few different animals before deciding on the pig!

The keep opening up new phases and continuations of sawyer point and it just keeps getting better and more beautiful! 

Happy 55th Mom/Omi!

This past weekend we had an awesome excuse to get our house spring cleaned and decorated to celebrate a very special birthday! We had my aunts, uncles, Oma and Opa and my moms best friend over for a cookout to celebrate her birthday! I love hosting parties so this was so fun to have! We were able to spend the beautiful evening outside and it was just perfect! Amy even flew in town to surprise my mom which was awesome! It was so cute to see Mom tear up to have all her girls together!

This is getting to be a regular thing - stef and I and our bumps! 35 weeks and 22 weeks! Love it!

Sunny Days!

The sun has been out and the temperatures have been warm and perfect! Just a few pictures to capture our last few weeks enjoying the outdoors! 

Jack has been talking so much! Pretty much any word we ask him to repeat he does and he cracks us up with how observant he is! 

We have spent so much time playing in the yard 

We have been exploring parks around town and Mama has gotten to hang out with her friend Allie while she is on maternity leave with adorable baby Charlie!

With just about 6 weeks left before Jack becomes a big brother it has been so fun to see his interest in Charlie!

Lots of day trips around town with these boys and wow does the sun tucker them out! They are just becoming the best of friends!

Lunch and farmers market downtown on fountain square!

We still run outside right when we wake up every morning! Don't want to miss any day light!

More construction on our street! Bike rides to get ice cream with friends! Bike rides to church and the grocery! Just taking advantage of all our freedom before baby #2 arrives! 

Those rosey summer cheeks are just too adorable!

Congrats Uncle Mike!

This weekend we got to head to OU to celebrate Michael graduating from college and have some time with the March family! It was so nice to see them!

We are proud of you Michael! The weather was gorgeous and warm this weekend so we grilled out and all spent the afternoon together! 

Time with grandma and grandpa!!

Jack played so much with his uncles and papa and was totally warn out!

The weekend wrapped up with a great, very warm Sunday at home!
