Lucy and Ellory graduated from preschool! What a special ceremony they had. They truly had amazing teachers and I'm so thankful for all they learned. I'm grateful they enjoyed going and felt safe and loved there. Norah went to this preschool also, so we've had four years in a row of going there, and now I can't believe it's finished! Getting the front row seat to watch these sweeties grow up is the best ride ever.

Lucy and Ellory's Kindermusik graduation.
Lucy and Ellory graduated from Kindermusik today. What a special time! They have been going for four years, so with Norah's time too, I have been going to weekly Kindermusik classes for six years! Kindermusik is a great program, and their teacher, Mrs. Heidi, was truly fabulous. She is so good with kids and taught them so much about music! They did many fun and educational things through the years, like playing instruments, following beats, singing songs, parachute, learning notes and C scale, and this year they learned to play the dulcimer and glockenspiel (just to name a few things). They learned many great skills that will carry them well in later years! It was very much worth the time and investment. We will definitely miss it!
We love you, Mrs. Heidi! You are great at what you do and so thankful you could teach our girls!

First night of soccer 2022.
We had our first night of soccer! All three were excited and had fun! It was a chilly night, but the girls did great and didn't complain. Norah was a little hesitant to do it at first, but perked up when she knew a couple friends would be on her team. Lucy has been talking about soccer for months and has been so thrilled. Ellory was excited too, but on a little calmer level. Fun to watch them get out there and try their best!

Easter weekend 2022.
We had such a fun Easter weekend! Hallelujah, He is risen- the best, most joyous reason to celebrate! The girls had Friday and Monday off of school, so we headed to Des Moines Thursday after school to see the Schut side. Kley was able to switch and rearrange some work things so he could come too, yay! All of my siblings were there too, so it was neat to all be together. We came back Sunday and got to celebrate with the De Jong side too. Love seeing all the cousins! Monday we had a nice day at home.
Cousin picture with Will and Gerrit! Wearing the hats they found in the Easter scavenger hunt the De Jong side does (instead of an egg hunt they do a scavenger hunt for a few small treats- it's fun to do different things on each side!), and terrible lighting, but it is what it is!
