Umbrellas and a Guitar

Lauren and Chelsea finally got to use their matching umbrellas in actual rain. Chelsea went all out with rain boots while Lauren is hoping it's a passing thing and her flipflops will do.
Devon finished his 12 weeks of guitar lessons. Here is the only proof we have that he ever played. We have a million pictures of him lying on the ground doing nothing when he is just days old, but this is all we could manage to come up with for his first guitar "recital". (he may not like me to call it that) At least we remembered the camera.
Totally random pictures, I know. This is my attempt to stay up to date for Mom and Dad. It's kind of hard when you have no pictures to stay up to date with. Pinewood Derby is coming up on Saturday. That should make for some thrilling shots. ;)

Spring Break

Holly and Dave and their family came to visit the first weekend of Spring Break. We can honestly say that we wish they had stayed longer. What an awesome family!!! We went downtown to the Shedd Aquarium for the day. (Dave escaped this picture to act as camera man)
Carter loves to go fishing so this fish was pretty amazing to him.

Chelsea, the penguin.

Bryn and Devon just hanging out having a chat. (seriously! Bryn loves to talk to whoever will listen :)


Part of the gang waiting for the show, "Fantasea" at the aquarium. (to quote Bruce, "you've seen this and you still allowed us to sit through it?")

Devon went fishing several times during Spring Break at the lake in our neighborhood. This catch was enough for Carter to race home and get Bruce to bring the camera.




Bruce thought he had put the ab-roller out of the way. Chelsea thought he put it in the perfect place to use it. (yes, we have an ab-roller)


Back to school tomorrow!!!
