Emery loves this fall weather

Emery and I are trying to spend as much time as possible outdoors these days. I want to take advantage of this glorious weather after what was an unbearable summer. Just yesterday Emery had a play date in our backyard with her gymnastics buddies, Brooke and Harper, followed by shooting hoops with Daddy in the driveway. We inherited a really nice basketball goal with our new house. Obviously Emery is too little for it right now, but I have visions of her and Daddy sharing special father-daughter moments out there playing ball, just like George and Annie Banks in the best movie of all time ("Father of the Bride")!

Bobbles can dunk!

Harper and Emery taking a snack break. This little table and chair set is perfect for Emery and her little friends. Emery would rather sit at this table than in her high chair.

Emery showed off her snakes (that one is fake) and Koi

A perfect afternoon!
