My mom had my cousin Jessica come and take pictures of the family while Jenny and Scott where in town from Michigan. I thought they turned out really cute.

our new pet

 Near the end of May we got a baby kitten from some piano student's whose cat had kittens. I wasn't going to get a cat since I'm allergic to cats but I gave in when I saw the picture of the litter of kittens and I knew the girls would love a cat so much.She was six weeks old and the runt of the litter. The girls named her Ginger, though Chad wanted Tigress, mostly we call her Kitty. She's a sweet tempered cat and very social. She's very pampered and tortured at the same time. Brooke constantly searches for her and carries her around and at least once a week is bitten or scratched enough that she cries. The Kitty is very patient though since Brooke only gets scratched once a week but terrorizes the cat daily. Still the Kitty doesn't run when she sees Brooke. I like the Kitty more than I thought too. Every night after the kids go to bed and I sit on the couch she climbs up onto my chest and purrs while I pet her. My allergies haven't been any worse than they usually are either. I don't know if it's because she's still a kitten or if my cat allergies have subsided a bit since I was a kid.
The Kitty is actually asleep like that.




She would find the tiniest hiding places. She's lucky no one sat on her.

Can you find the cat?





Honk Jr.

Brielle auditioned for the school musical Honk Jr. and got the role of Beaky last spring. It's the story of the ugly duckling as a musical. Her character was one of the ugly duckling's siblings. She was thrilled to get a "real" part because last year she was just one of the choir members. She had about 10 speaking lines and was on stage for a good portion of the beginning. She really enjoyed it and can't wait to audition for this year's musical.
