March 2025

Here are some highlights from March. 

Megan and Matthew participated in the Arizona State Robotics Championship.

Even though their team did not qualify for Worlds at State, they later got an invite to Worlds so they are heading there in May.

Megan turned 14 1/2. She was very excited to receive the Captain America movies.

3rd Quarter Band Concert. This is the symphonic band.

Jazz band. Matthew played a solo.

Their band teacher, Mr. Aguero, ended up leaving during Q3. Megan and Matthew were both super sad as he was an amazing teacher who really connected with and inspired his students.

Megan with the clarinet stand Mr. A gave her.

Megan loved playing with puppies for one YW activity.

Matthew received a PERSIST award from his ELA teacher. He was actually quite excited to receive it, just not so excited about the picture.

Megan went to her friend Elyse's birthday party.

Yeah! They succeeded in escaping the escape room.

At dinner.

We really enjoyed the Spain Yum Box. Who knew raspberry chips existed? Or that they were so delicious!

Megan enjoyed painting her hands for a laser tag activity with the YW.

Matthew found his dream hiking boots: orange and waterproof!

We got up to see the lunar eclipse.

Enjoying some pie on Pi day :)

We headed out of town for a week during Spring Break. See the other post for details.

One of the puzzles we got from Grandmo.

Me was able to go down to Tucson to meet Sarah and Lionheart for lunch. It was so nice to see them. Sarah seems to be doing well and Lionheart is a delightful, active baby. Here are a few pictures from the visit.

Megan went rappelling with the YW and had a great time! I heard from multiple people how supportive and encouraging Megan was of the other girls and of the leaders.
