Thanksgiving weekend

We had a very busy Thanksgiving weekend! We went to Evansville to spend time at Grandma Emmerson's house and to see our cousins.


Happy Thanksgiving!


Just catching up with my cousin...she is 5 weeks younger than me.




During Thanksgiving dinner Claire did some entertaining! Out of nowhere she got the giggles! We thought it was so funny!


Funny story Nana!




SO, my cousin noticed I liked his red shirt. With this he took it off for me to wear! I am really not sure how to explain the basket?!?




Emmerson loves playing with her cousins!


Grandma got lots of snuggles and smiles!


Here are 8 of the 10 great grandkids.


Over the past few weeks we have learned that someone has a soft spot for her Pop Pop! I don't think it bothers him too much!


Grandma is sure she is going to find a way to get these two to Evansville more often!


Another spell of the giggles!


We went to a bounce house place. Usually this is not Emmerson's thing but she had so much fun!


It didn't hurt that Baylee was willing to get her use to the bounce house.


We couldn't find Emmerson at one point and this is where we found her. Telling Grandma something really important!


We found an empty one and Emme went wild!




Even Claire got to get in and bounce a bit!

A day with the GIRLS

Our friend Anna came to spend the day with us! We had so much fun! and kept VERY busy...


They spent most of their day at this table doing Thanksgiving crafts!


So busy!


One of our finished products.


A quick snack break.


More of our finished products...


and a dance party!


There was even a little time for toys!

A visit in Fort Wayne

We went to Fort Wayne for a week while Daddy traveled for work. We kept very busy visiting all our Fort Wayne loved ones.


Can you believe my Dad was gone for a whole week? (so serious)


We got to go visit Aunt Margaret, Aunt Molly, Aunt Terry, Uncle Charles and Uncle Paul. Claire couldn't take her eyes off the dog.








Look what Emmerson did to Nana and Pop Pop's house! She keeps very busy with her toys!


Night time picnics in front of the fire are the best!

8 months old!

Our sweet girl is 8 months old. She is SO happy all the time! She loves to eat, play and watch her sister! She is still sleeping great and is busy being the easiest baby ever!


This is what she usually looks like! Silly girl!




She still thinks Emmerson is the best! No matter what she does to her...


She LOVES to eat! She will eat any baby food offered and anything else she can get!


This is what she looks like the whole time we are at the dinner table. She keeps her eyes on her sister to make sure she doesn't miss anything funny!


She loves her dog!


and could spend the whole day pulling toys out of this toy bin!


Most importantly....she still has really crazy hair!

Halloween

Emmerson was so excited for Halloween this year. I am sure being a year older and all the Halloween activities leading up to it helped!

Emme's favorite part of the day...dressing up poor Bella!

Happy Halloween!


We went to Maggie's house to play that morning. We even decorated Halloween cookies!



So fun!




Don't these look yummy?!?

Time to go trick or treating with Jack!


Is there anything cuter than this? We told Emme to move closer to Jack and she put her arm around him...They are best buddies!




She can't believe all the candy!









Boo! I can't eat candy yet!

With our favorite babysitter! Jack needed Emme's hand for this one. He was a little worried about being left with the babysitter.



Such a cute little bee!

Our little bugs!

SO sweet!

Good night!
