Triumphant Brass's First Day Out!

Sunday was TB's first day out! It was oh-so fun. Pretty much amazing. This summer is going to be the best summer of my life! LOL. Here are some pics:

What a stud. LOL.

Dan tried on my shoes...they didn't fit.

Marcus goofing off at McDonalds.


Whoa! Becca's grown! She can reach the light fixture!


...or maybe the light fixtures are just really low...

Easter Sunday and Cornerstone

Easter Sunday was really nice at Cornerstone. It was the one year anniversary of Cornerstone's first service, which made it extra special. We had alot of music, which was fun. One of the songs was going to be a mixed quartet with Kelly as soprano, me as alto, Eric as tenor, and Jordan as bass. Unfortunately, however, Kelly couldn't get the piano part recorded, so she had to play it for the performace. That bumped me up to soprano without an alto to support me! Scary! Especially since I had to hit a high F! But the Lord gave me strength, and I was surprisingly un-nervous. (Pardon my horrendous grammar. LOL.) After the service we went to the McPhails' for lunch. The Carlsons came, too, and so did Zach. We had a feast and lots of fun fellowship. =)

This picture was actually taken the week before Easter Sunday, but it was taken while Kelly and I were at Cornerstone, so I decided to include it. =)

Mrs. Carlson made this cake (It's called "bunny cake."), and I just thought it was so cute! So I took a picture of it. LOL.
This is Frankie, the McPhails' dog. He's adorable.

Mullens

On Saturday night Auna was craving a frozen hot chocolate from Latte Donatte. I told her that I'd go with her. Unfortunately we'd forgotten that Watertown is retarded and everything closes super early. Everything, that is except Mullens. LOL. We ended up going there and getting ice cream. Yum! It was a ton of fun.

First Berres Brothers Trip of the Year! =)

Me and Michelle have somewhat of a tradition of riding our bikes to Berres Brothers when I come over on Saturdays. Obviously, it hasn't been warm enough to do that in quite some time, but this past Saturday her mom was going to Walmart, so she took me and Michelle and dropped us off at Berres while she and Cathy went shopping. It was really fun. =) Michelle and I both got the hot chocolate, which was excellent.

Michelle didn't want to have her picture taken. She's so goofy.

H.M.S. Pinafore Rehearsals

H.M.S. Pinafore is this week, so all last week and all this week (until the performaces, of course) we've been having rehearsals from 6 or 7 at night till 10. It's been crazy, but those of us who spend our evenings in the orchestra pit manage to keep things fun. LOL. Here are some pics that were taken during breaks:

Micah was trying to play my French horn, and David was exploring my phone. I told them to try and make it look like a candid, but for some reason David scooted in really close to Micah. I think he was just trying to get in the shot, but it just looks really funny, because the French horn bell is pointed straight into David's stomach. LOL.

Oh my, these boys are so wierd.

My and Heidi's Adventure

I haven't posted in a while because I didn't have the cord to my camera. But my mom mailed me the cord, so now I can post all the pictures I took. =) On the way back to school from Spring Break, Heidi Williams and I stopped and explored this old abandoned barn we saw in the middle of a field in Indiana. (I love and miss Indiana! LOL.) The thing was literally falling in on itself. It was really fun, and we felt adventurous. =)

I climbed up this old tractor into the second story. In this picture I was leaning back so you could see what was behind/beneath me.

This is what I could see when I climbed up to the second story.

Half of the building had caved in completely. Here Heidi's grabbing onto what used to be a rafter.

This used to be a wall I think...
