Visit to Arkansas

On October 12th we headed to Denver so Emma and I could fly out to see my Dad and Stepmom. Before we flew out we headed to the temple. It was my turn to do a session and Daddy hung out with Emma. We had a really fun visit. We went to visit my Dad's office, went to the zoo, a pumpkin patch, and out to eat. Here are all of the pictures of our fun times.

Emma early in the morning in our hotel room. She is not a morning person. It's pretty funny.

Emma in front of the Christus. She was so excited when I came out of the temple to show me "Jesus" as she would say. My sweet girl!

Hanging out on the airplane! She did pretty good. We had two different plane rides and she handled them pretty well. We colored, did stickers, and had snacks.

The Mephis Zoo!

Emma loved riding the carousel with Grandpa!

Emma was so tired by the end of the day she fell asleep. She missed a few animals, but I think she had a great time. She still talks about the big monkeys (Gorillas) and the Giraffes!

The Pumpkin Patch!

Pumpkin Hollow

Pony Rides! She loved riding the pony, but also seemed a tad nervous.

Me and Emma on they hay ride.

The corn maze. I've never quite understood the draw. Maybe it's because I have a terrible sense of direction. We made it through though.

She was so cute like this. She climbed in all by herself and posed like this.

On our way home. She has just woken up from a long nap and was not super happy. It was such a fun visit, but we were sure happy to see Daddy. Emma grabbed him and hung on for dear life. She was so excited!

Emma's Dance Class!

My friend Katie has opened up a dance studio here in town and she has a litte toddler class. Emma went for the first time today and she did so good! She had tons of fun and she looked so cute in her little leotard and leggings!

Our fun crazy weekend!

On Thursday it was our five year anniversary. We had  a fun day by going out to lunch and then planned on celebrating a little more on Saturday night because we were planning on being in Laramie. On Friday we left for Laramie. I left Robert and Emma with Grandpa and Grandma and then I headed down to Ft. Collins to go to my Mary Kay Fall Retreat. It was a really great retreat. I was able to solitify things I wanted to do with my business and get some great ideas! Then, in very snowy weather we headed back to Laramie. I was excited to see my family again and go on our anniversary date. We went to dinner and then went to see "Dolphin Tale" at the theater. It was a great weekend. We were able to do so much and have so much fun!

Bunco!

On Thursday night we had our bunco night. I have been so blessed to make such good friends in Rawlins. Rawlins is probably not my number 1 choice to live, but having such good friends has made it a great place!

She Cracks Me Up!

Emma has been super hard to take pictures of lately. It's really hard to get her to look at the camera. Here we are right before church. Before we leave anywhere she usually gathers up a pile of her favorite things for the day. Here she is with her loot.

Here she is totally making me laugh. We just couldn't get her to smile normal. I love how she makes me laugh everyday.

Long Rough Week

There were two fires at Sinclair the Thursday before Labor Day, so Robert has been working a lot! He's been leaving before we wake up and coming home right when Emma is going to bed. So when he got home at 7 tonight Emma was super excited! She grabbed her ball and couldn't wait to go outside and play! Robert should be home the whole weekend unless he gets called in. We are sooooo happy to finally have Daddy home this weekend! Emma loves to give kisses. Her hair looks funny here, but I think it looks way worse than it actually is.

First Day of Toddler Class

The Headstart preschool does a Toddler class on Fridays and I was able to get Emma in. I was really excited. It's just a fun little school that she goes to for an hour every Friday morning. Her friend Caroline goes too. She was so excited and as soon as she got there she compeltely forgot about me! I have a hard time getting her to smile and look at the camera.

Labor Day Weekend

We had a fun relaxing Memorial Day weekend. We were planning on going to Utah and going to the temple, but there were some fires at Sinclair so we had to stay so Robert could work. On Saturday we went to Cheyenne and did some shopping, or a lot of shopping. It's so hard living in a small town because then when we get somewhere with stores we have a TON to do. On Monday Robert had to work, but that night we went and played soccer and other games with some families from our ward. I only took a couple of pictures, but at least I have some.
