The Latest Happenings

I sat down to update our blog and realized that we have almost no new pictures. I really need to be better about keeping the camera out and using it! I'll go ahead and update today though because I am going to be out of town for the next little while. We are going up to Idaho this weekend to visit my family and then Tuesday Emma and I are going to visit my sister and her family in Ohio. I am SO excited! I just really hope Emma does okay on the airplane. I have a feeling it's going to be a really long day. But it should be a fun trip and I will take lots of pictures.
Emma discovered a new talent last weekend...the ring toss. We went to the Wymount opening social. She played this game twice where she had to throw rings on rubber ducks. I helped her the first time and she totally missed. When I stopped helping her she totally scored. For her amazing skills she won a slinky and a sweet pair of yellow sunglasses. She LOVES the glasses. She puts them on, pushes them up on her head and then rocks out on her Winnie the Pooh rocker. The picture I got isn't the best, but you get the idea. It's hilarious. Emma also learned where her belly button is this week. She will pull up her shirt (and anyone elses she can reach) to point to it. We love her! It's hard to believe how fast she's growing up.
We have been loving the fall weather here, though it is still pretty hot. We are grateful though and spend most of the day outside. Emma takes after her dad and could spend all day outside. So, we are taking advantage of the nice weather and are praying for it to continue. Maybe we can skip winter all together this year...
Well, here are a couple pictures. There will be a lot more after next week.

Emma rocking out on her Pooh rocker. Good times!

We drove up Provo Canyon last weekend. It is gorgeous this time of year.

I thought this was so funny. She got my shoes and worked so hard to get them on.

She was smiling and laughing until I pulled the camera out :)

P.S. I won't let Brandon read this entry of yours since you didn't include him on your list of people to come visit...he would be crushed...and bring up how much you don't like him! :) jk
