Love that Chair

Benjamin loves his chair. Sometimes I find him in his chair just sitting and smiling. Sometimes I find him in his sisters chair and he is smiling even bigger. Yes he doesn't have any pants on but it was the end of the day.Find a book to read.

Ballet Observation Day

Once a semester, Rebecca's ballet class has an observation day. My batteries ran out during the class but I still got some great shots. My friend continued to take some pictures so stay posted for more (I know you can't wait).

You have to stretch properly before you start.

This is what happens when I come to class.

Tulip Festival 2009

Rebecca, Benjamin and I went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point today with Chad's mom. We had a wonderful time walking around and admiring all the beautiful flowers. At the gardens they plant over 250,000 bulbs and then dig them up each year. You can buy the bulbs at a sale at the end of May. My tulips haven't blossomed yet so I am very jealous. We spent 3 1/2 hours walking around, enjoying the flowers, playing in the children's garden and having a picnic. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
