A Future Musician?

Thanks Kristen for letting us play with your toys!
Tim trying out the drum set before he lets Frank get started.

This is Frankie looking ready to scream a song.

Let's start with the drums first.

Now the cymbals.

Wow! He seems really interested, but I think he was just really tired.

Frankie Loves Water

Our good friend Kristen bought Frankie this pool for our BBQ today. Here's some pics of him at home enjoying it for the second time today.







The next pictures are from Neighbor/Auntie Laura who also bought a pool for Frankie and the rest of us to play in this summer.
