We got one big snow at the end of January.
February and March kept us all busy with studies and work and other things. For Spring Break, we were able to take a short trip to St. Louis. We stopped in Springfield, IL to see Abraham Lincoln's home and then into St. Louis, where the highlight was the City Museum.
A bit later in March, Anna danced in the YAGP competition just outside of Indianapolis. There was a 4-mile road race nearby, so Dad ran in that while Anna was dancing. The very last weekend in March, Kate went with Mom and Dad to a kids-day event at the Union. The highlight was the face painting with airbrush and stencil.
