Mizzou Homecoming

Our new friend, Lauren!!



Truman the Tiger




Waiting to meet Truman. Scott had to run clear up the
street for Truman to switch to our side of the street.
It was worth it though, Emme got to give Truman a high five!!





Go Tigers!!!






Waiting for the parade to start!!

This past Sat. Emme, my mom and I went to Columbia to celebrate Mizzou homecoming with Scott. We went down Friday night to look at house decs with Lauren, Scott's girlfriend. We got up extra early on Sat to see the parade and to catch a glimpse of Truman, Emme's favorite!! Scott got her the Hello Truman book for her birthday and we read it every night. We ended up getting tickets to the game (thank you Connie Ray) so Emme got to watch the 'zou tigers win the homecoming game. Go Tigers!!!

The Pumpkin Patch

Posin' for a picture



Aaaahhh!! I'm scared of the ghosts!!!


Feeding the deer with grandma Pam


Finally making it out of the hay tunnel!! So SCARY!!
It was scary for mom also because the little girl at the edge of the
picture went in and out 2 times before Emme and Papa Jim came out!


This is the pose I get from Emme when I tell her to smile.
She puts one finger on her face and cheeses it up!!

Today, Emme, grandma Pam, papa Jim and I all went to Totten's Pumpkin Patch. We picked out a few pumpkins, some halloween decoration, petted the deer and went on the haunted hayride. It was a great time!! Emme wasn't sure about the hay tunnel at first, but tried it a second time to be sure. She still wasn't impressed!

Happy Birthday Emme Jo!!!

Emme turned 2 today. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. Time sure flies!! I don't have any old pictures left on the computer. They are stored on a disc so here are some pics from today!!
