Happy Birthday Emme and America

By Kerry -
Emme turned 2 this week and had lots of celebrations. We don't have her actual party scheduled for another two weeks, but she had a chance to celebrate at her school. Her teachers even let Addison come visit for cookie cake, songs and games... they are sooooo good to them!


Emme's birthday breakfast...


We took the girls to the local parade this morning. They loved the fire trucks, man on stilts, horses, old-fashioned cars, and ALLLLL of the candy that everyone threw at them. The weather actually wasn't too hot, we brought our chairs and extra picnic "stuff" and had a blast. We're hoping to keep the girls up late enough for fireworks tonight, but we're just not quite sure it's going to work. Tomorrow we are off to try kayaking with the girls. Check back soon for updates!

Emme, cute as can be...


Such a good Daddy! Holding both girls so they can see...

   Well, we finally made it to Arkansas after a very, very, very, very long night. There was on-and-off driving, sleeping (well, it was really a lot of little naps) on the couch, the table seat, my real bed for about two hours, then back to the table seat. But we made it!    On Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, we played with Billy and EJ, built forts, and spent a lot of time on the lake. But today, Billy and EJ were back in school and my sisters and I had nothing to do. So Uncle Gannon took us to Crystal Bridges. We saw some really cool things, went on some trails, and got lost for about half an hour. But it was worth it!     We are leaving on Thursday, so we have one more day to have fun with our cousins and then it's off to the next state and the next adventure. ~ Emme

DISNEY (part 2)

Day Three started out EARLY!  We had 7:30 reservations at Chef Mickey, so we left Nana and Papa to sleep in and we headed out for our next adventure.  Tons. Of. Fun. AGAIN!!  The girls loved dancing around and thought it was super cool that we let them have as much syrup and whipped cream on their pancakes and hot cocoa as they wanted! Here are the girls dancing around after breakfast. Donald was a definite favorite! But Goofy really got Emme's attention.  They were fast friends!! After breakfast, we decided to relax around the pool for a bit before heading to Hollywood Studios.  Addison got up the nerve to go down the super long water slide.  It was really cool to watch her do that!  Emme wasn't quite as brave, but loved spending time in the pool! After the pool, we all headed back to our rooms and the girls took a long nap.  They had been going so fast, they finally needed time to crash!!
