After I got home my friend Karlina sent me a picture of her twin daughters Anna – Marie and Beryllia in their matching Minnie Mouse shirts and pants that I brought them for their birthday present! They even had some cute red bows in their hair!

We celebrated Valentine’s Day almost a week later with birthday bash on Friday afternoon with dancing, and I handed out valentines cards to every team in the association and it was my first time ever trying to remember each person in each group home! It was sure a test of my knowledge of remembering names and what teams they were at! I had a strawberry cheesecake and ice tea! I did do some dancing as well!

On Saturday afternoon Maryann and I went to celebrate Theresa’s birthday and Maryann’s birthday! , I found some colourful flowers and a balloon with a butterfly on it for Theresa from Safeway !

On St. Patrick’s day, I wore a green sweater and a green t-shirt and I had green finger nails so I didn’t get pinched! We celebrated St. Patrick’s Day some more on Friday afternoon with some irish and country songs and dancing at birthday bash . I wore a green vest/ sweater so I didn’t have a chance to get pinched again. I found a blueberry cheesecake that was delicious from Safeway.

I had two school presentations in the last week of march that went really well. We went to OLMP on Tuesday morning and then we went to Sifton school on Wednesday morning!

On Friday evening we dyed boiled eggs with food colouring, vinegar water and paper towels and clothes pins with our friends from Rose Club . You wrapped the egg in the paper towels with the clothes pin and then put the food colouring over top which was in a spray bottle with water vinegar. Gloves were optional. I had a great time and It made me think of my childhood because almost every Easter we used to dye eggs.

On Saturday morning was the Special Olympics bowling tournament and year end wind up for the season. My bowling scores were 102, 108, and 111, which I got a second place ribbon for my first game, a third place ribbon for my second game and then I got a participation ribbon for my third game.
