Emme and Aliza enjoying a snack during a tough game of washers.

Emme and I went with the Yoders and the Belts to the Mizzou vs. Furman football game last weekend. We did a little tailgating and enjoyed the game. Although Truman did not come give us a high five, we had a great time!!

Happy Birthday, B. J.!!

Here is Emme's present to B. J. Happy Birthday, Daddy!!

Dancing Queen

Such cute little ballet slippers.

Addie and I enrolled Aliza and Emme in a dance class this fall. It hasn't started yet, but Emme wanted to try out her ballet slippers and leotards. She even broke out the feather boa to strike a pose!!

Beauty Shop

Putting some glitter on daddy's hair...what little there is.


Isn't he beautiful!!


Emme said she was making me look like a witch!

Getting a little face work done with a hammer...glad my hairdresser doesn't use these measures!

Putting on product!!

Emme wanted to "fix" my hair so she gathered her tools and started in. She said she was putting icing, sprinkles and peanuts in my hair...just pretend she told me. Emme said "I'm making you look like a witch, but then I will make you pretty like a ballerina." Then she moved on to B. J.'s hair...even though he doesn't really have any hair. It was a fun time!

Emme the Photographer

This was the best Freckles picture Emme got.


Almost got her.


Extreme closeup.

Close but not quite.

A pretty good picture by Emme while we were on vacation.

Emme really enjoys using a camera. She's not always the most accurate but anything at the level of a 2 yr old is usually different than what us adults see. It's a good thing that our dog, Freckles, is easy to get along with. Emme likes taking Freckles' picture...alot!

Finger Painting

Little miss dainty...only using one finger.

Emme got her first chance to show her creativity with fingerpaint!
