Picture Overload...Baby Boy coming soon...

We had a great 5 months in Texas, but it feels soooo good to be back in Idaho!!  We can actually go outside and play all day long!! Emery has been in LOVE --Rolling around in the green, soft, ant-free grass, and digging in dirt where ever she can find it.  Her knew thing is collecting rocks.  I find them all over my house! haha (And our car.)  Anyways, we are loving being home.  Corey is back in school, doing pretty well, and I have been busy painting rooms, canning with my mom, and chasin' Emerz around.  Oh yeah and preparing for our little man to get here the end of Feb.! Yes that's right, I am about 20 weeks pregnant and we are having a BOY!!!  It's been a bitter sweet road getting to this point but we feel so blessed, and cannot wait for Em to have a little brother. She is so excited to be a big sister.  She has always been so fascinated with babies, so hopefully the transition will go over well.   Sorry for the overload of Pics!!

Contagious smiles..and giggles!

Cousins Emery and Dalton

Father's day---better late than never!!

Corey is such an awesome dad. Emery takes advantage of every second she gets to spend with him. She loves swimming with him at the pool, and going to the car wash, and getting suckers at the gas station with him. It's so crazy how much she is like her daddy. (especially like how I hear he was when he was young!) She is so full of energy, and can hardly focus her attention on one thing for more than 5 minutes. I know that one day all that energy will be focused on something amazing. She will be able to achieve great things.

We had fun making daddy some cards...and we got daddy a camping chair! haha classic Dad's day gift.

Em likes to make her dad pretty paintings...

Sorry for the butt shot, but I love this picture. So sweet.

Havin' fun at the pool. She just started swimming by herself today too!!! Look at the similarities in their eyes and smile...she looks A LOT like her daddy.

4th of July Happenings

I love the 4th of July. It's one of my favorite holidays. Emery and her friends made a few crafts for the fun occasion. We went to the parade where Em enjoyed waving and gathering up the candy that was tossed. Later that night we had a BBQ with friends from the office. It was a fun filled night!

So I'm finally admitting that i am the world's worst blogger! ( as you can see.) But I do a lot better when we are away from friends & family so they can see what we are up to. We are once again selling in Texas. Austin area, same as last year. So far things have been really great. Its kinda nice knowing where things are and whats going on. April was so HOT! In the mid and high 90's! It was the hottest April in 156 years! wow. The last couple days have been super nice though. perfect weather. We even had a day this week where it was colder here than in Idaho! Ha. Imagine that. Anyways, other than allergies being EXTREMELY awful we are doing well.

Easter was super fun. On Saturday we went to a near by park with some of the girls and their kids. We took a ride on a little train, got a treat bag for finding an egg, and got to see the Easter BunnY! Em was excited but then when it was her turn she got a little hesitant, so she asked her friend Emrie to come with her. So cute.

When we got home she got to decorate eggs! Em loved it. She concentrated the whole time. Kylee and Keisha came over and also decorated some sugar cookies(that was a little easier...and less of a mess!) On Sunday we had a little easter egg hunt and Em found her basket the Easter bunny hid for her. She got some sidewalk chalk and bubbles to play with on our balcony, since she's out there like all day long!

Noelle was nice enough to snap some super cute pictures of our girls in their Easter outfits. Emery's facial expressions make me laugh. She'll never sit still and look directly at the camera and when she finally does she gives a huge fake cheeseball smile. Haha. These capture her personality for sure.
