Grandma
Ardeth turned 90 this year, so Dan's family threw her a big party. I didn't go to Utah because I had a couple post-op
appointments with my infertility doctor that I couldn't miss. Dan and Emma flew there without me and spent the week with his family. He said they had a great time and it was nice to have a week to myself here at home.

At Grandma's house. Emma doesn't look too thrilled.
There we go....now Emma's happy.
Our sweet
neice and Emma's cousin Mia passed away when she was only 14 months old from a genetic disorder call
SMA. We think about her all the time and miss her so much. Emma has a little angel that hangs above her bed that is her Mia. She says that her and Mia were friends in heaven after Mia died and I was pregnant with Emma. We can't wait till we can be together again in heaven! We love and miss you Mia!!!

The house that Nana grew up in.
Emma still fits in the basket on the front of the 4 wheeler....next time she probably be too big.

Love the boots Emma!
Maddie and Devin....Maddie looks like the
marshmellow is a little too big for her mouth!
One of Emma's favorite things about Nana and Papa's house is the giant bubblegum machine that Papa got from one of his friends. Who knows how old the gumballs are, but Emma doesn't care!
Emma's dream lunch! You can tell Dad has been taking care of her for the last few days!
Here is her real lunch....mater soup and cheese sandwiches....YUM!!
Typical Emma....always making faces. Love the double chin babe! She calls this her "
peuce" face.
This is one of my favorite times of the year. I love it when the days start getting a little warmer and brighter and the buds start poking their little leaves out of the cold dirt. The last few months or so have been really hard on me and my little family. I think for the most part Dan and Emma are feeling normal, but I am still feeling sad/depressed about not being pregnant anymore. I do feel better physically, but emotionally I am not 100% yet. When I noticed that our weeping cherry tree we planted last year was in bloom I had a small moment of pure happiness. Thank goodness for new beginnings and warm weather! I always feel much better when the sun is shining. I hope these good days will last and that my mood will be sunny as well!
