See my teeth?




McGinnis is so proud of his new teeth. He gives us cheesy grins ALL the time. So far, these are the best shots I can get of him, but I'll keep trying! (Pardon the boogeys in his nose!)

Girl at Work












Emma LOVES to work on things. Our friend Connie is renovating a new office space, so we have been trying to lend a hand when we can. Emma gets really upset if she finds out someone is working at the office and she is not there. Her new skills include mudding sheet rock and scraping old glue off the floor. It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it!!

The Surrey with Fringe on Top

What a cutie!



Just to give a little perspective on how TINY this trailer was!!


Thank you, thank you, thank you to all those of you who helped Emma get enough credits to ride the pony. Actually this year, the school hired the same miniature pony, named Ballou, but this time, he pulled a surrey with fringe on top! It was really cute, and the kids really had a fun time. The little boy in the pictures is one of Emma's friends from her class.

Happy Birthday to Emma!!

The Cinderella Cake

After dinner, we played Emma's new game. The object was to get all of your jewelry set first. Mr. Frank won, but we couldn't get him to pose with all of his jewelry on.

We are so blessed that God gave us Emma. She is a joyful, loving, sweet child who we are thankful for every day.

Enjoying snacks after Walk/Run!!
So, thanks to all you Walk Run supporters! Emma's class had a fun time running laps around the field. It was a little crazy, but the kids really enjoyed themselves. We got really lucky and had great weather that morning, too. Next week, she gets to ride the pony, thanks to all those who we mailed a flyer to!



Snow Day






On April 14th, we had a nice snow storm. We ended up getting several inches of snow, but it warmed up enough that it was pretty much melted by that night. Emma at least got to play a little bit. It was windy that day, so that's the reason for the covered face.

It Must Be Love

If you know Emma at all, you would know that if you ask her who she's going to marry, she will say Trace. Since we went to the beach last year with Kennamer and Trace, that's all she's talked about. Don't ask her about boyfriends, or she'll say, "Remember? I'm going to marry Trace." When this first started, she called him Frace. Then it changed to Grace. And now, she finally calls him Trace. Anyway, that is all just lead up to this video where he obviously returns the feeling. Just see for yourself.
