Spring finally arrived here in Indiana, and we enjoyed lots of fun activities. We went to the Purdue Spring Fest this year, where we got to meet cool insects and spiders, take a pony ride, try the John Deere pedal tractor course, build our own rockets, and drive electric cars. Anna and Jack got new bicycles, and Mom got a bicycle and attached a special seat for Kate. Kevin and Ruth and their family hosted us for a trip to Vermont. We also visited Granny and Grandpa in May and again in June; during the June visit, Jack and Anna got to run in their first road race!
