April was dominated by dance competitions for Kendra's dance team and Sam's First Communion and Sacrament of Reconciliation!
June brought graduation day for my nephews Luke and Tyler, and Kaylie and Kendra's end of year dance shows. Sam also finished up the year with a fabulous piano recital! Late June included a wonderful trip for Kendra and I to Daytona, Florida for Dance Nationals. What a wonderful trip to spend 1:1 time with Kendra. Wish I could do that with each of our kids this next year!
As June turned into July, we celebrated family fun in the pool and on local lakes in our boat. Sam's baseball had a great season ending up in the Championship game for the end of year tourney!
August brought our annual Walker Bay Days 5K race with three generations of the Schmitz Family running in the race! All four placed in their age groups!
September brought our favorite time of year - STATE FAIR TIME!!! We were super lucky this year in that Grandma Schroeder was able to join us for State Fair fun all the way from North Carolina. The kids will never forget their Tilt-a-Whirl ride with Grandma! What a GREAT day we had!!
Before we knew it, September and October rolled around with the start of school, Fall Fun, and Halloween! Kendra spent Halloween morning back at the hospital for her 6th ear surgery - a tympanoplasty to repair a perforated eardrum.
I guess when we look back at all that we've done in the past few months, it is no wonder why we haven't had time to post! It has been a busy time with Dan in school all Summer and Fall, and fulltime work for me, but we have also created someone incredible family memories along the way!
