Now, considering May was cold and rainy and felt WAY more like April, its somewhat understandable but.. I also suspect that it has to do with having 3 teenagers and nearing the end of the school year.
Since our last post, we've celebrated Mothers Day, our 21st Anniversary, attended 2 band concerts, 1 orchestra concert, hosted Ian and his family to celebrate his graduation and acceptance into The Berkley School of Music and an out of town Taekwondo tournament. This is on top of tests, final projects, field trips and general every day craziness.
We'll give you the highlights in photos....and videos
Orchestra Concert
Band Concert - they played a High School Musical Medaly - Jimmys favorite
Wolf Pack
Jazz Concert -
Korean National Anthem -
TKD
Jimmy continues to kill it as the drummer int the jazz band.
LOVE that the kids from 9th grade Jazz continue to play together - Thank you Ross Wolf! You made such a difference in their lives ! 
Ian and his family, both host family from South Dakota (Amber and Lim) and his mother, father and uncle from Korea. For lunch, he asked for orange chicken and the brown rice with mushrooms (rice pilaf), we also had watermelon, beans, salad and mondu. Kay had waffles (probably to piss him off since they were his favorite)
His family brought an entire suitcase of Korean snacks, food and skin care products. Kay loved every minute of it!
They even gave Billy their grandfathers 4th degree Taekwondo pin. So special
Billy with Ian's uncle
The group
Billy's orchestra concert. They get better (and smaller) each year
More Korean photos. Jimmy led everyone in a rousing rendition of the South Korean national anthem
My favorite photo
Tracy attended 4 full day training sessions, adding to the craziness
Jimmy representing South Korea at Festival of Nations
The 3rd and 4th kid on the way to Chicago to kick some butt
Weighing in is always a bit nerve racking but they made it
The pomsea team

Love that smile
The pomsea medal winners
Team Rogers - miss those guys
3rd (of 3) in sparring
Sparring team - 2 kids even won a trip to Korea! They are fun to watch
Finally, time for fun!
We came back from swimming to find out hotel surrounded and evacuated. A guy had 9 grams of coke, multiple fire arms and shot one in the hotel room. Who knew Schaumburg was a rough neighborhood?!
After biding our time at dinner, we returned and were allowed to stay in our room. Police were camped out all night. I think we had the safest hotel room in Illinois that night! Never a dull moment.
Throw back to High School Musical 2 premier in India. Still a favorite
Anniversary trivia with Jennifer and Doug. Gorgeous night at New Bohemian We biked up.
He's still a stinker and we had a play date with his brothers
Macho and Gander are slightly smaller than Maui and look like twins, they played non stop
Maui was channeling Ferdinand and was more interested in flowers than playing
The boys
He finally started to warm up to Gander at the end
Tracy actually got in a 40 mile ride with a stop for ice cream, a flat tire and reassured herself that she'll be able to finish the MS150 next week
Bangalore crew reunion and bar hopping in Uptown. Love these people and miss all the others....
