Jade and I started out the new year with a soccer tournament in Atlanta! Sadly the weather was rainier and colder than we had hoped for, but still had a great time! Her team fought hard against some very tough competition.
We had Jade's 8th Grade Family Orientation night at her future high school, Naperville Central! This was basically an event to showcase all the different extra curricular clubs and activities as well as sports offered for students to get involved in their freshman year! We didn't escape without a visit to the merch shop!
The girls had their winter band concert at Wentz Hall, which is on North Central College's campus!
The girls also performed at their school's solo and ensemble festival! Jemma did a solo, a duet with Jade and a duet with her friend Olivia! In addition to her duet with Jemma, Jade did a woodwind quartet and duet with her friend Kylie.
Jemma kept busy during the winter months with both basketball and volleyball leagues! So fun to watch her improve throughout the season!
Here is a little clip of her playing basketball!
Here's a little snippet of volleyball!
His mom had us over the following weekend for a corned beef and cabbage dinner! We got to sneak in another birthday celebration! :)
We also got a fun bonus visit with my sister and niece Cora when they were in Chicago for a dance convention! We enjoyed some mall time and Giordano's pizza for dinner!
Nate and I celebrated our 17th Anniversary with dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse!
Jade's soccer team started off their spring season with a win in Wisconsin!
