Happy Birthday...

...to me and PPC! The business is 1 year old today, and I only have it by 27 years! : ) By the grace of God, Precision Plumbing is doing well, and Ben has recently added a new truck (which is what I posted the truck pictures of)! Maybe Emma will take over one day...you see her playing with the toilet...tough keeping her out of there these days! : ) The toilet just seems to be the perfect height for pulling up and cruising! The other pictures are of Emma playing with the sun and shadows and in her carseat. The carseat is another new favorite these days!

Life's a Beach

We took a trip to the beach this past week-end...it was wonderful as always! Emma absolutely LOVED it...she loved crawling all in the sand and loved getting out in the waves and water with us! We couldn't believe how much more she loved it since our June trip! Thankfully it seems our baby loves our favorite vacation spot! : ) I think I need to work on trying the bubbleshare thing too...oh well!

More Beach

How sad it was to leave the beach!! We had a wave wash up on our quilt though, so Ben said it was time! : ) Emma actually fell asleep on the bed with her leg up on the pillow--had to get that picture! The top 3 (under the ocean one--I messed them up and don't know how to change it!)were from our stop at my Pa's property on the way home; what a great day to be outside!

Go TIGERS!!

Home opener against FSU at 8 pm on a Monday night...the first fame of the 07 season and of Emma's life on the "outside". It was HOT and late, but we won and had a great time...the rest of the week trying to recover was maybe not so great. ; )

Church Groups

The top pictures are from a family swim night we had last week...it was a wonderful time to eat, swim, and fellowship with wonderful friends! The bottom 2 are from a youth event we helped with recently. We had a video/camera scavenger hunt around town. It was great fun, and I do think Ben and I had the best group! : ) There were two others that were good but not as good as ours! We did so enjoy being with the kids as well as seeing so many of them be so creative! They all went to play Broom/Ice Hockey afterward, but we had to miss out this time. : ( We were still recovering from our Clemson all nighter!

It's a Wonderful Life!

It is a wonderful life, and I am so blessed to be sharing so much of Emma's with her!! These are just random "everyday" life events in our home. I LOVE the top picture. I went to check on Emma during an afternoon nap and found her on her tiptoes in her crib watching her Daddy cut the grass. I couldn't believe how long that kept her content! The others are her eating a "biscuit"...loves those and zwieback toast; playing in our windows; playing with her cousin Will; checking out a truck cartoon while Mommy tried to pack a bag to get on the road...seems to really like trucks for some reason; and the last two are of Emma under the dining room table playing. I was fixing her breakfast one morning and all of a sudden couldn't find her--was starting to hit panic mode when all of a sudden she made a noise, and that's where I found her, just as happy and proud as could be!
