Way Behind!!

Wow, I didn't realize I hadn't posted in over a month! Time is flying by!!

We've had a pretty busy month so far. Allison turned four on May 3. I can't believe how fast 4 years goes by! We had a party for her the Friday before her birthday. We had both of our families over for pizza and cake. Every time I asked Ally what she wanted for dinner for her birthday she would tell me she wanted Marco's pizza. That made it a pretty easy party for me:)
Allison also started going to Jenison's Early Childhood Center a couple of times a week for physical and occupational therapy. We had her tested in March at the ECC because we had some concerns. My Aunt Ruth (Kaptein) has been through this system before, so she came with us to all of our meetings. We are so thankful to her for helping us know where to get started.
They recommended she start therapy to help with her gross and fine motor skills as well as with her inability to focus. She has really like going to "school" these past few weeks and is excited to start pre-school in the fall. She will go to the ECC for pre-school as well. She will be in what they call an at-risk pre-school which means there is more help per child than a normal pre-school. She will also get any PT/OT that she needs. We are very thankful that we live in the city of Jenison, they have been so helpful and quick about everything!
Other than that, Nate and I have been busy in our business. We participated in a Health and Fitness Expo in Caledonia a couple weeks ago with Jon and Alyssa. It was a great learning experience for us! But the coolest part was that we had a booth right across from one of Amway's pilots. After the expo he brought us to the Amway hanger at the airport. We got to sit in all the DeVos' planes and their helicopter. It was so cool!! They are awesome planes!!
We also went out to Pittsburgh for a business conference at the end of April. It was a lot of fun! We went to the Pittsburgh mission for church on Sunday. We finally made it after getting re-routed because of some sort of charity walk. Then we totally missed the road the church was on! We ended up coming in as they were singing the song right before the sermon! Oops! But it was nice to meet all the families there. It happened to be the one service a month that Rev. Bruinsma goes to a different church to preach, but we got to watch a sermon from Hudsonville PRC instead.

Well, this is a very long post...sorry! I'm not promising that I'll post soon, because that obviously doesn't happen:)
