Schmidts go to the CIRCUS!

We're not sure what kind of hand signs Will is flashing here but
i think it had something to do with it being too bright to open his eyes for the pic.

Here's Will and Dad sitting on the ring watching some of the pre-show

Scary clown

This was one of Will's favorite parts


This was his other favorite part- POPCORN !!!
He ate enough artificial butter flavoring and salt
to last him for at least a few days..... (in his opinion)

Waiting for the show to begin- Will was so amazed and distracted w/ everything
we finally had to give up on him actually taking time to look at the camera.

Will and a nice clown

Elephants! (this refers to the pic above, not below)

Nice, blurry grand finale!! We had a fabulous time

Joelle and Bryan's Wedding!

The happy couple at the rehearsal dinner

Father and Mother of the Bride

We three had a great time at the rehearsal dinner together

The two ring bearers also waiting for the ceremony to begin!

Here's Will surrounded by a bunch of little flower ladies!

Silly Swinging Sisters

Silly Sophie

Here's Sophie doing her signature nose scrunch!

Then she started doing this face with sound effects and all- i probably have 5 more pictures of this same thing- she just kept going and going!

What a little goof!

Sweet Madeline

Madeline loves to stick her tongue out!

So bashful...

Showing off her 7 little teeth.... (FYI, Sophie has none...) :)

Will and Daddy's fort "house"

Please note the special feature of a 1 car attached garage

Inside was very spacious and convenient for family use

Here are the builders welcoming visitors from the front door

We got to host Easter this year for the first time. 20 people in all- including the kiddos!
