April - June 2016

The second quarter of 2016 had lots of activities.  Jack and Kate went with Dad to Purdue's Spring Fest and Aviation Day.  In April, Dad took a trip to the Netherlands for business, and he got to spend part of one day sightseeing in Amsterdam.  Kate and Anna participated in the ballet school's recital, while Jack and his U11 boys soccer team ended an excellent season by winning the championship game for the Spring season.  Anna had an exceptionally exciting May and June; she earned a role in the Ballet Company performance "Dangerous Beauty".  Lots of dedication and practice paid off with a great performance.
