More Homecoming...

If you really want to see how my Homecoming weekend was, check out Kathy's Blog at http://www.fieldsfavorites.blogspot.com/ . She captures it much better....

Taylor Homecoming

My 10th year Taylor reunion was this past weekend...I cannot believe that it has been 10 years! It was great to go back and catch up with many friends, particularly the Bomb Shelter women.


Here we all are eating at Ivanhoe's.








Emma and Tim stayed with Hope and Leo for the weekend while I spent the time duty free with the other husband/kid-free women. However, Emma did sneak up for a visit to meet everyone. She had to show off her new outfit...

Emma's first soccer game

We took Emma to see her first UNC women's soccer game (best NCAA team in the country). I think she is hooked.




















Emma having fun with her doll Edith.

Finally Fall!!

Fall is finally here! After record breaking 94 degrees on Tuesday, we are finally getting some cooler weather. Which means....tada....Emma gets dressed up in her cute fall clothes!


Yes, you have seen this outfit, but could she look any cuter? I think she is trying to figure out why Annie is such a spaz (we unfortunately had to take her on our walk this morning after I swear she had just digested dog nip).





Emma has an adorable new little jacket and hat made none other than the gifted Grandma Donna. Yes, Emma does look a bit devilish in the picture....hopefully it's not a glimpse into her teenage years.

Fun with Adam's camera

A few pictures from Adam's new camera...

St. Louis

We went to St. Louis this past weekend to celebrate Mom's 60th birthday. In this picture, we just told Emma how old Grandma was and she couldn't believe that such a saucy minx could be that old.






Emma having a blast with Grandpa Eddie.









Emma hanging out with Uncle Adam and Sam. Although Emma has a big head, she has a bit to go before she catches up with Adam.






Our good friend Kris Reinne showed up for the festivities. It's amazing what adults will do just to try to get a baby to smile.
