A few happenings...

 Dad, Mom, and Kaity went to Florida to see Rick perform in a play, while there they also saw Eli.

Spring concerts are finally over, I enjoyed them but it is definitely a relief to have them over with!

 These pictures are from two of the seven concerts.

So much fun!

We went to Cantigny Park - There is a war museum and a historical mansion on the property that we went through.
