Catch Up

 Long time, no post.  We've been busy and I haven't gotten around to uploading pictures.  It was a great spring with tons of sports for us, Alec played travel soccer and lacrosse and Matt coached Charlie's park district soccer team.  Lots of weekend games, but we loved them all.  Charlie really improved on his soccer skills this season, Alec is still a soccer superstar and he has discovered a love for lacrosse!  He's become the goal scorer for his lacrosse team, which makes the games especially fun for us to watch!  Otherwise we've been busy with wrapping up second grade and preschool and lots of guests.  We had visits from Papa Gene and Grandma Susan, Papa Randy, and our friend Morgan, who stayed with us while her new baby brother was born.  Bring on summer!
 Our friends hilarious side by side bike, we bought a tandem to cruise around town on with them.
