Cousin Nathaniel Visits

Cousin Nathaniel came for a visit at camp Aunt Sherry & Uncle Jay.  We had a blast - esp Emma & Luke.

Emma had no fear petting the snake.

Enjoying Schiele Museum

Fake smiles.  I had to ask them to show me their teeth. 

Emma crafted this duct tape butterfly all by herself.  She had a vision & was very determined.

Cowgirl Emma

Emma was so worn out that she fell asleep at the dinner table.  A first.  

My sweet exhausted girl.

Lots of time spent on the swing set

A Good Weekend

We've enjoyed a pretty relaxing weekend.  It was nice after last week's craziness (there was no real apparent reason for said craziness - it was just crazy).  No hurring and scurrying--mostly have staying in the confines of Char-Meck.  Friday we did hit up the Flying Biscuit-its always nice to have breakfast as dinner but this place - the food is good even though they're all organic.  Last night we headed over to the Wick's to hang.  We had a great time playing RockBand. Fortunately, no pics or videos were taken there.

Taking a little stroll on the greenway. 

This add-on goes right next to our house and makes for a 6 mile trail.

Emma got a new chair she now relaxes in.

We headed over to the Wick's last night.  Emma was set to play some Rock Band in her Rock and Roll t-shirt.  She was dancing a good bit of the night to all the songs! We had a lot of fun.

This is just plain funny.

Happy Halloween Part III

So I thought I made a cool video in Picasa for everyone to see. Turns out I made a crappy .jpg. You'd think Google would allow their products to talk to each other and play nice. Guess not. At any rate, this is not an anti-Google blog, especially since I know they are watching.

I'll get the video thing figured out. Here are some pics from Emma's big night. We had a ton of fun! Hope you all got a lot of candy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Today is Michelle's birthday. We went to Senior Tequilas with David, Charissa and Kevin. We watched Davidson win and then head back to our place for a little ice cream cake!

Happy Birthday Chelle!
