Our ballerina

Ballet pictures were taken in April in advance of the recital in June. This was a test run for hair and makeup (I know, she is wearing a TON, but they told us to do this!) I was just happy to see her hair remain in the bun!

The Limo

The kids had a great time at prom. Dinner @ Shula's, a limo ride, the dance until midnight, then back to Branden's house for pizza, snacks, and an all-night Call Of Duty match.

All dressed up

I couldn't resist a shot with my son

The whole group

Just the boys. From left: Branden, Mason, Forrest, Dave, Trevor and Tyler

Smarty-pants

Most of the pictures didn't turn out, but I wanted to give a "shout out" to Tyler. He was inducted into National Honor Society in April. We are so very proud of all his hard work. It's a big honor to be inducted!

Swamp things

The four of us just prior to boarding our air boat.

Eric, Abby, Kim and Sam are ready to go!

Heather and Grama apply their safety gear. That boat was LOUD!

Diversions

Uncle Eric and Abby ride the tandem bike

The whole Beutel clan on an air boat ride (SO cool--I highly recommend it!)

More Marco Island

We managed to wrangle Ben long enough to get a family picture

Barb, Harry and Heather look golden brown and happy--Florida suits them!

Katie, Abby and Sam cooperate for a picture (not so much Ben)

Krista, Katie and Chris (once again, minus Ben)

Spring Break @ Marco Island

The kids on Easter morning (which we actually celebrated the day AFTER Easter)

Sunset (minus Ben, who at 3, does NOT like to take family pictures)

The kids attacking Aunt Heather

Grama's birthday

We headed down to St. Augustine to join Grama & Grampa and Uncle Rich & Aunt Karen for Grama's birthday dinner. Ben was NOT happy having to get out of his scrubs. We've been calling him "Dr. Ben" for close to a month, now.

Katie lays a smooch on Uncle Rich.

Grama and Ty

Ty and Krista (can you believe how big he is?)
