Spring Things

 Jade got braces on April 15th!


We had a great Easter Celebration with my parents, GeeGee and Aunt Mar!





Jemma had her final band concert of the year! She did such a great job playing multiple percussion instruments and bouncing between them during songs!




Nate's Aunt Nancy always likes to do an outing with the girls for their birthday and this year we went for a hike at Ohara Woods to see the Bluebells. They were so beautiful, we couldn't believe how many there were!







Jade played on her school's combined 7th and 8th grade soccer team! This is only the second year that girls soccer has been offered, so it's a pretty short (4 games) season! 


Jemma was Amelia Earhart in her school's 5th grade Wax Museum project. She did a great job memorizing her monologue and staying in character. 



We had a really nice Mother's Day celebration complete with acai bowls for lunch and my favorite, Jackson Ave Pub for dinner!



Jade had her final band concert of the year! This is always my favorite concert out at the bandshell in downtown Naperville!





Jade's soccer team came in first at their spring tournament! In addition to Jade's awesome effort on defense, the coach let her play offense, and she scored several goals!
