random photos

here are a few random pics taken of emma this last week! the first two are of her playing peek-a-boo (one of her favorite games)!!!

a pumpkin for our pumpkin!

for a bit of festive fall fun, we carved pumpkins!! emma's adoptive grandparents out here (lloyd and barb cherry) have been so great, lovin on us and little emma! lloyd grew emma her very own pumpkin- he was so proud:) so here are some pics of the pumpkin party!

so adorable...

i stole this picture from shane and ann's blog because it was too cute! this is my nephew wyatt (he just turned 3 a couple of months ago.) i just think this picture is classic- it should be in a magazine or something, "world's cutest redheads"!!!

cutie patootie... is that how you spell that?!?

emma loves her new little princess mobile she got from gi gi and papi! 

and the other pics are just kind of random but super cute!

happy birthday emma

here are a few pics of our little sweet pea at her birthday party! we had a few families here that have been amazing in helping make our transition as smooth as possible and we had steve's fam on the webcam (gotta love that technology!) i will post more as i get them downloaded onto my computer! enjoy...

doing a little twirl!

wow... it's been a while! sorry about that but life has been crazy busy here! i'm quite behind on my posts but here are some recent pics of this past weekend. one of the pastors from the church invited us to a family lake house so we went on saturday and had a BLAST! i rode on a wave runner for the first time and can't believe i've waited this long to ride one. i admit i was a little nervous at first but after a while i was going a little crazy, even keeping up with steve!! emma had such a great time in her little float and then in a raft with steve! enjoy...


















these other pictures are from our backyard. we put out a tarp and the sprinkler and it was like a slip and slide- she was loving it!

long time no pics...

sorry it's been a while since i added new photos but it's been a little hard finding things, including the cord attaching the camera to the computer. these pictures were actually taken right before we left florida and the dress was handmade by steve's grandmother for his aunt anne (dale's sister) when she was a baby! i love that we have pictures of her in it- she looks like a little doll!
