Been busy (and just plain tired)...

Here are a few pictures of what we've been up to the last few weeks. I've tried several times to upload pictures over the last several weeks, but Blogger doesn't seem to like me. And to be honest, I haven't had the patience to wait!! :-)

Pumpkin patch on 10/13 or so...


Mommy and Emma.


Emma and her friend Jonathan checkin' out the rabbits.


Emma picking out her pumpkin!!










This is the "big girl" furniture we bought for Emma a few weeks ago. It's all still in the boxes in various places around the house at the moment. We are in the process of getting rooms painted and getting closets and rooms cleaned out. Once all that is done, we will put all the furniture together and start transitioning Emma to her new room! We'll keep you updated!!












Our trip to VA a few weekends ago. We drove up to an Apple Butter Festival where there was a pumpkin patch and then to Crabtree Falls. The weather was beautiful and the mountains were so refreshing and beautiful. Emma has no fear! She climbed up 3/4 a mile or so of the mountain with us! She would have kept going, but we knew she still had to make it down and we didn't want to carry her!!


This last picture was taken no more than 5 minutes after we got back in the car to go home! She was so tired and didn't even know it!!


More updates to come over the next few days... Here's what you have to look forward to: Birthday party for a friend, Halloween and pictures of our newly painted room! :-)

Hi all,
We've been waiting for these! That is a gorgeous picture of the mountains! And all the pictures of busy, busy little girl are so cute.
I love the furniture! Can't wait to see it in her new room! You guys will be good and tired when all the transitioning is complete. Have fun painting - so rewarding when it's all done and looks like what you imagined!
Love,
Mom Kelly/Grammie
