Trip to Texas 2.6.08 - 2.13.08

Emily and I had the opportunity to visit my Mom and Dad and our other Aunt's and Uncle's in Texas this past week. We had a great time visiting and was thankful for the nice weather which allowed us to enjoy the outdoors the majority of the trip. Emily found she could do a new expression as a result of the plane ride - a look of surprise.

Emily's favorite thing to do was getting in and out of the cabinet in one of the bathrooms.


Emily had fun riding in a car just her size, but her most favorite part was pressing the "radio" button and dancing to the music.

Mommy even joined in the fun.

We would take walks in the mornings and on one of our walks we passed a house that had a horse. Emily was not too fond of him.

Lots of cactus bushes in Texas.

Emily enjoyed many things while on our trip.
She especially enjoyed the brownies we had for Aunt Clara's birthday.

Camping in Kentucky

This was our first family camping trip. On Friday, July 27th the Groff's, Marshall's and Clay's packed up all the gear and hit the road. With three stops it took about 6 hours to get to Corbin, KY. This was a mini family reunion to see our cousins that came up from North Carolina. We had such a good time visiting that we decided we would get together at another location again next year. Below are some pictures of the campsite, fun at the pool at our cousins hotel and Cumberland Falls.
