Emily's 2nd Birthday!

Emily's birthday was a huge success. It was a beautiful day and many family members could join us for her special day. Her MeeMa made her a very special Minnie Mouse cake and even a special personal cake for her as well. She got two fish from her Uncle Jack and Uncle Jerry. Sadly those fish didn't make it to the next morning, oops! She was blessed with many other special toys, books and games, everything a two year old could want and more. She again very gracefully ate her cake, taking care not to get too dirty. Happy Birthday Emily! You are a very special girl and we love you very much!

Zoo 2009

We decided to take a family trip to the zoo. We had to dress warm though as the temperature was in the 60's, so jackets were a necessity. Not usual for the zoo in late August. Emily had a lot of fun and enjoyed walking around the zoo, she didn't want to sit in her stroller much so she was really able to see all of the exhibits up close. I think her favorite animals to watch this trip were the penguins.
