The Power of Rock

A few weeks ago, we were lucky enough to have Elise and Brad and their adorable children staying with us. At first, it was only going to be for a few days, much to my chagrin; however, Brad ended up having an emergency appendectomy, which extended their stay by about a week. I was not pleased that Brad had to go through the grueling surgery (and grueling it was....it took double the time they said it would and the surgeon said he'd never seen worse), but I was glad to keep them a little bit longer. During their visit, Mike and Claire became fast friends.

At first she was hesitant...

but she inched closer...

and began to strum a little bit...

until she was rocking out...

and totally exhausted.
