March Wrap Up

March Wrap Up

Thank you publishers for the gifted copies.

Holy smokes did this month ever fly by quickly!

⚾️This month kicked off the baseball season in our house. Web plays and his dad is the head coach, so it’s a family affair. Practices have been going well with 30° temps and high winds. I seriously don’t know how these kids do it. Their first game is on Tuesday and we are all excited.

Web also has been busy with the Speech team and FBLA, so he has gotten to travel quite a bit with those groups this month. Swipe for pics👉

🐶In doggie world, our crew loved seeing the snow melt and nice weather arrive. They also loved finding and playing in all the mud🤦‍♀️

📚For this month’s reading, I still can’t believe how many books I read! To top that off I had several five star reads that were just beyond words.

As you know my goal is to read debut books each month and this month they were:

  • The Invincible Summer of Juniper Jones

  • On a Night of a Thousand Stars

I had several excellent buddy and group reads this month, loved our discussions, and made some new friends through them!
