Happy Halloween!

I know, I know, I've been such a slacker lately as far as our family blog goes. In fact, my sisters have started asking me to post pictures of Emily because they haven't seen any in so long. Well, here you go and good news, she's still cute!

Last month we had a lot of fun getting ready for Halloween. I took Emily to this free Halloween Carnival across town. She LOVED it and best of all she got some treats, toys, and even a really nice fall picture!

For Halloween, Emily was a ladybug. It was so fun to experience Halloween with her this year. We even took her trick-or-treating!

She loved watching us carve the pumpkin and see how the jack-o-lantern lit up. It was a great Halloween.

We also discovered her new favorite hiding place...the closet. For some reason she likes my side of the closet better than Greg's. Oh well, at least she's happy!

On Veteran's Day we went to the Wetlands Park. We walked around the park and saw birds and turtles. Emily really liked seeing the animals up close.

The water was pretty awesome too, although we couldn't stay for long because Emily was afraid of it. We brought sack lunches and had a nice family picnic. It was a fun day.

Last Monday my brother Joel came into town for a work convention. We met up one evening for dinner. It was so fun to hang out, especially since we rarely get to see each other. Doesn't this picture get you excited for Christmas?

One last picture to brighten your day!
