Graham and Nora.
Graham is 15 and is involved in drama at school. He is such a ham, and everyone says Lydia takes after him. Nora is 12 and very quiet. She is a ballerina and recently made it into a local ballet company.

Leo at age 10. Leo loves being outside and is very involved in Boy Scouts.

Franny (L) and Nelly are 5 and are quite a dynamic duo. Franny loves to sing, and Nelly enjoys drawing.
