Christmas Eve

We did the traditional get new PJ's for Emma this Christmas Eve! She was so excited to get to open something. Here she is sporting her new Princess Jammies!

Photo Shoots are SO much easier when I cooperate!

We decided to take Emma's Christmas card pictures in front of our tree this year. At first she wasn't too happy, because with her dress on she thought she was going to church and was disappointed when I told her it wasn't Sunday. We had to bribe her with Reese's Pieces', but other than that she was really cooperative. I love it that she will finally smile for the camera now.

The Mullet Had to Go!

My poor baby, who still won't grow hair finally got her first haircut on Wednesday. Because her hair still is pretty short on top it was beginning to look like a mullet. I cut off about 3 inches on the back (Daddy kept calling her Julie Andrews, because it looked like her hair from the Sound of Music). The next day we went to Aunt Tessa's house who stacked the back. It looks much better now.

I love to Trick-or Treat!

Emma had a lot of fun going trick-or-treating. We practiced all week saying, "trick-or-treat" and she never once would say it at the right time. The only thing she said the whole time was, "bye doggie" to someone with a dog. We were able to go to more houses than expected and were out for about an hour. When she finally got the hang of it she was running to the next house.
When we got home she really enjoyed helping Mom answer the door and as soon as the doorbell would ring she'd yell, "trick-or-treat". She's say bye (in her little southern accent) and one time told a teenaged Tinkerbell, "bye princess!"

My Little Pirate Princess!

Emma is going to be a little pirate princess this year for Halloween. Corey wanted some pictures to show off at work, so we took a few cute ones today. After 19 months I can finally get her to smile for the camera, now it's getting her to hold still that's the problem :)

Camping!

We went camping this past Wed. thru Friday at the same spot we went Memorial weekend (near the Christmas Meadow Campground in the Uinta's). Even though it was just the three of us this time, we had a lot of fun. The weather was perfect and the temperatures great! Emma sure loves camping although this time she was much more independent and often looked like a little orphan because she was SO dirty! We drove up to Mirror lake one afternoon thinking Emma would enjoy it, unfortunately we were very wrong, she screamed every time we walked down to the water, wouldn't let her Dad near her and wouldn't walk on her own at all. We stayed long enough to get one picture and then left. This will most likely be our last camping trip this year and next year we'll be a family of four!!! :)

I love Camping!

The Davis County Fair

We went to the county fair this past Saturday. The weather was PERFECT (at least for us). It wasn't busy at all!! Emma got to ride a pony and had a lot of fun seeing all of the animals. She was afraid of the chickens though.

Cowboy Emma!
