April - June 2017

April brought outdoor soccer for Jack and a ballet recital for Anna and Kate. As the year headed towards summer, we got outside quite a bit more often.  Dad was able to get Kate a new bike "for free" using some of his airline miles; the bike was a little big for this year, but it will be great next year.  Kate and Jack spent a week at "Archi-camp" learning about Architecture while Anna participated in the "summer intensive" ballet.
