The Kindler Five...: March Madness...

March Madness for the Kindler clan has proven to be full of fun times. It started with a trip to Grandma and PaPa Kindler's farm over spring break. 17 of us in all (including 8 grandkids - ages 8 and under!) stayed under one roof. Fun times had by all! The kids swam in the hot tub at least 3 times/day, played legos and the Wii, and watched "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" - aka "Meatballs and Noodles" according to Taylor, at least 15 times in four days. We stayed up too late, but stayed in our pj's almost the whole time, which was the best. So many fun memories made. We can't wait to do it again this summer when we go to the Lake of the Ozarks.

We also got to celebrate G-G's 90th birthday on March 11th! She is such a blessing to us all. She is still her spunky self at 90. She refused to let us throw her a big birthday bash, so we had a family dinner to celebrate. She made her "annual" speech and was so excited to have received over 100 /pictures from her friends and family for a special memory album. She is such a special lady to so many!!

Well - time to cheer on the Cats for the 2nd half of the big game...still a sore subject to some in our household. Here are a few March Madness pics!

Emerson turned 7 months old today! Can't believe it. She is so happy, despite the many contraptions she is sportin' these days. She is finally adjusting to her new cast (she's had it for 3 weeks now). As the picture states - she is gorgeous!!

Here are the crazy Kindler cousins with Aunt Joy and cousin, Alida. They always are so thoughtful and are buying cool things for the kiddos. They stopped by for a bit while we were at the farm and brought the kids these cool shirts!

I love this pic! Shows you how different the Kindler cousin's personalities are...this is one of many fun dips in the hot tub. I think Papa only had to drain it twice while we were there :). Dawson (4), Aidan (5), Masen (7), Owen (4), and Lauren (8).
