Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

No, I am not talking about John Candy and Steve Martin. I am referring to the Exchange Club Fair. We went Monday night with my parents. I wasn't sure just how Emme would react to all the madness, but she LOVED it!! She rode the swing, Ferris wheel, carousel, wooden airplanes, and train. All she said for the next two days was, "Mommy, horsey. Pawpaw, train... CHOO CHOO!, Emme, swing, Emme, plane." While I rode on the carousel with her, Pawpaw rode with her on the train, and she rode the swing and plane all by herself. I think she dreamed about the fair Monday night. Tuesday we went shopping for a nap mat for the days that Valerie cannot pick her up from school. There were SO many cute patterns to chose from... HOWEVER we ended up with a pink one with little horses on it. While this was not even one of my choices, Emme fell in love with it. Why? The fair were still on that mind. How could I resist??

Worn out!

You might be a Redneck Part One: You might be a redneck if you PawPaw pulls you around via rope

You might be a Redneck Part Two: You might be a redneck if you eat a tomato straight from PawPaw's garden

Weekend With Friends

We had a good weekend. We went to dinner Friday night with the Durrs. We were actually in bed fairly early! Emme likes being a "baby" with Brady Michael. We grilled out with friends Saturday night. Emme, Claire, and Anniston had fun together playing outside. Poor Carter was outnumbered with all the girls!! Then Sunday we enjoyed a great morning at church and a fun lunch afterwards with the Durrs, Shoemakes, and Browns. Sweet Girl

Such an Emme expression

Hamming it up with her dad!

Emme decided that she would give up walking to crawl like Brady Michael

Time to Party

This past Saturday, Emme went to her BFF Claire's birthday party. The kids had so much fun- and the adults too! Claire had the cutest cake ever! I had to include the picture of it!!

First Post

So I never thought I would be a "blogger". Just not that savvy when it comes to computers. However, Jason has made me realize that this could be really awesome for updates on Emme, especially for his family. I'm not really sure what I'm doing, but I hope to get the hang of it. Here are a few recent pics of little bit. Our summer together is almost over! We have had a great time, and Emme will start "school" in a few weeks. She will go until 11 everyday, and Valerie will then pick her up until I get home. Time flies!!
