Weekend Wrap-Up

Wednesday Kase and I made the trip to Pella for a couple appointments and he humored me with a picture in front of my favorite pink tulips which were already in full bloom!

 


Kylee's been having fun with her youth group friends.



And Kael absolutely CRUSHED it at his track meet Thursday! There was some quick last minute shuffling with meets lately because the weather has been crummy and we lucked out with the most beautiful day!

Kael must have been feeling great because he beat his PR for discus by more than 6 meters and also beat his PR for hammer by over 4 meters! I couldn't have been happier for him. He's been a little disappointed with his throws lately so it was awesome to see him so pumped up. Way to go buddy!!! It was great that Kent and I could be there for the discus and my parents were also there.  We had to go home for Kylee's senior night at track but my parents were able to stay and cheer Kael on for hammer!





It was a fun night with Kylee and honestly it has been so nice this season not having the stress and pressure of racing.  Her hamstring has been bothering her still and she just hasn't been up to competing yet so we have just enjoyed cheering on her teammates!


Kent and Kase headed to Kansas City for baseball. By all accounts it was a fun weekend for them. 

Saturday was my birthday and I woke up to the sweetest note Kylee had left for me. (She had left for Indiana to visit a friend at 4AM Friday morning!) And I had the nicest day- my parents came over to help me sort and organize stuff for Kylee's grad party and they were a huge help. Later Kael came home to spend the day with me. Then he and Emma invited me to join them for dinner so we went to Portofino's and it was so fun.  Super kind of them to include me!


Sunday after church Kael headed back to Pella and I ran to the mall.  The baseball boys had a tough day Saturday for games but Sunday played well! Kylee is still having fun in Indiana and the boys will be getting home here in a couple hours.  Fun weekend! Thankful to all who made my bithday special!
