Us

We rarely do posts about us but I thought we would do a quick update. It has been a crazy, stressful year to say the least. I'm working full time and Bryan, unfortunately, is still unemployed and staying home with Emma. We pray everyday that God will soon show what his plan is for us. In June we celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary. We celebrated 2 ways, Memorial Day weekend one of my best friends and maid of honor got married in Gulf Shores, AL and we were fortunate to be able to attend the wedding and be a part of it. This was a quick get away for Bryan and I. It was nice to hang out with friends and have some time to be by ourselves. We were able to spend that Saturday on the beach the entire day reading, sleeping and enjoying the beautiful scenery. We attempted to go out that night for a nice early anniversary dinner but we waited a little to late so we ended up with fast food at the condo. In June, Katie was able to get us tickets to one of the CMA Fest concerts. Bryan's mom was in town and was able to watch Emma so we could see the concert. We endured the 100 degree weather and had a great time watching great artists.

So we realize it has been months since we posted a blog. Between work and Emma being on the go constantly, we just haven't had time. So now we update you. Emma is only 3 1/2 months away from turning the big 3. She grows and changes more everyday. She talks non-stop and in complete sentences for the most part. She is potty trained and has been since March when she decided to train herself one day. We had slowly been introducing the idea but she wanted nothing to do with it and then one day, she wanted to be a big girl. She is now sleeping in her transition bed as well and doing great. She loves being home with her daddy and I know they both will treasure this time as she gets older. Here are a few pics from the last several months.
