A Sneak Peak...

...Emma's 4 year anniversary of the day we adopted her is fast approaching. Here is a sneak peak at some pictures that were taken.

Bad Blogger and Quick Update

I was told today that I have been a bad blogger!!! YIKES!!! Sorry!!!

Like everyone else, we have been busy, busy, busy!! Since I last posted, Emma has started Pre-K, we have taken our first trip to Disney with 3 other adoptive families, Emma has started Gymnastics, I've visited Massachusetts and hosted Thanksgiving Dinner for 16 friends and family.

Coming up on the agenda is the big FIVE for Emma. My little princess has picked not the theme of Tinkerbell, Barbies or Princesses but Spongebob. Gotta love Spongy as he is referred to in our home. We also are looking forward to Christmas and all the fun celebrations that go along with it.

To end, here is Emma's School picture for this year. Since it was taken, we have cut her hair to her shoulder. She wanted it above her ears but I didn't want it that short.

Merry Christmas everyone!!

The One Forgotten

We planted a garden this year for the first time in a long time. We have three different types of tomato plants, peppers, string beans and what we thought were cucumbers.

The cucumber plant turned out to be a zuchini plant which is fine because we love zuchini. We probably got about 20 and then it got infected with some type of disease. From what Kevin says, it's a common disease for zuchini plants. Anyways, a couple weeks later Kevin was taking the zuchini plant from the garden and came across this:

Have you ever seen a zuchini that big?? It probably weighed 8 pounds!!!!!!!!

Wordless Wednesday and Flashback Friday??

Flashback Friday and Guess...

...where we are going Saturday?

First Catch of the Season

We went to The Lake yesterday and enjoyed some fun times with friends and family. Thanks Uncle Chris and Aunt Nae!! Emma also went on her first boat ride and loved it. I didn't take any pictures because I was too busy holding Emma while we sped along the lake. Emma kept telling Uncle Chris she wanted to go faster. She loved it when he went in circles and hit our own wave and the water splashed her. She also did some fishing off the dock with the homemade fishing pole Daddy made her with bamboo. She caught two Sunnies. She has no fear holding them either, even though they are very slippery and a little prickly.

My Silly Girl

Last weekend Emma played in the pool while I sat and relaxed and caught up on her blog a bit. She then came out of the pool and wanted me to take her picture. This is what she came up with for different faces. She is such a silly girl.
