Emma was a little more willing to get into the chicken costume this year...although she still was not down with wearing the hood. After a few houses, Emma was on board and saying, "I want more trick or treats". She had enough of the trick or treating after about eight houses though...so we made it back home in plenty of time to see a few costumed kids at our own door!
We spent Saturday night in a child's heaven. Bowling and arcade games were abundant, and Emma was taking it all in. Lucky for Emma, Ken knows his way around all the games, and was only more than happy to share some of his skills with her.
Arts and crafts, water play, and camping all under one roof . Emma had so much fun having her cousin visit.
Emma was very excited to show her cousin around the playground near our house. Uncle Tom got the merry-go-round spinning so fast that Aunt Stacy had to disembark the ride, however the girls seemed to love every minute of it!
It was a beautiful day at the beach, albeit a bit on the windy side. Luckily our guests from MN are used to weather extremes. Aside from the sand blowing in our eyes, the girls seemed to have a good time playing in the sand, and balancing on logs! 
Isabel and Emma had a dandy time playing together during Isabel's recent visit. Emma wants Isabel, 'Tacy, and Tom to come back and stay at her house again real soon!
I had two little helpers in the kitchen today. Both of the girls had so many banana's in their mouth, they had to use their hands to keep them from coming out!
wearing the cute sweater that mommy really likes, and Emma seems to really hate wearing.
