A Traveling We Will Go

Ethan and I tagged along with the grandparents for the 12 plus hour trip to GA for Abbie’s two year old birthday. It was well worth it. The kiddos absolutely loved seeing each other. After talking on the phone everyday, I think they were ready to get to play! We were so glad to have Aunt Janis and Uncle Marvin there, too. It was a great weekend and Abbie had a great birthday. I love my family!

Cool Man

This is from our trip to GA with the grandparents. It was Ethan’s first experience with sunglasses. I think he is a fan! I’m pretty sure those are the same sunglasses my brother and I played with when we were little. Can’t believe they lasted so long!

Christmas 2010 Part 2

Emily — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 01:59:19 +0000

Our Christmas celebration involved 8 days, 8 adults and 2 toddlers all in one house. It was great fun and great chaos! The kiddos played together. Abbie taught Ethan how to have a tea party. Ethan stayed up late and woke up early… exhausting but very fun. In addition to the children bonding, brother proposed to his girlfriend, LeAnna! We were so blessed to be a part of their special moment. Eric was super thoughtful with his proposal and I’m pretty sure we all cried… well, the girls did at least! This goes down in the books as one of the most special Christmas’ that we have had.

Again! Again!!!

Ethan Attack

GranGran and Grandaddy Biggs were in town, everyone was outside, it was a nice day… so I thought it was a good time to practice manually working my camera’s video controls. Maybe I should start with inanimate objects. I didn’t really get far past turning my camera on.

Giraffe BBQ Part 1

Emily — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 23:56:31 +0000

The long awaited party day finally arrived. We spent the morning busily finishing up little details. The desserts were baked, cupcakes iced, giraffe snacks dished and the giraffe birthday shirt made. I was very proud of myself for actually following through with the ideas I had for this party and it came out great. The best part ended up not being the decorations, but the wonderful time we had visiting with family and friends that joined us to celebrate two important birthdays. We are blessed to have people in our lives to celebrate special occasions. I’m so glad Ethan can look back on these memories and know how much he is loved!

P.S. Thanks Uncle Eric for helping ice cupcakes. You rock!

Family Time

As we were getting ready for the big Ethan and Nguyen birthday bash, we set aside some time to celebrate dad’s birthday and just hang out. Eric and Leanna came in town so this was one of the few times a year my whole family is together. Everybody had a great time! We ate awesome mandarin orange birthday cake, played with toys and laughed. Special memories!

Family Visits

It was so nice to have my family come visit. Abigail and Ethan had a great time playing with each other. They poked and swatted and jump on air mattresses together. Mom and Dad loved having both grandkids in the same place.

Easter In GA

Emily — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 03:48:42 +0000

Ethan and I road over to Georgia with my parents to visit Amie and Abigail for a week. Nguyen had to work so he couldn’t join us. Ethan did a great job traveling! He was a super good baby. We had a fabulous time visiting with Amie, Rich and Abbie. Mom and I did get a touch of a stomach bug and Abbie had a bad ear infection, so we weren’t at our best. Despite illness we enjoyed our time together.
