Assorted Pics and Video Clips from October, 2019

Another amazing month.  3 members of our family have October birthdays:  Georgia, Emme and I.  We discovered, and consequently had to have a foreign object removed from Emme's left ear lobe.  The family came down on the 26th to help Emerson and I celebrate.  Dana Jo planned and funded Emerson's birthday party at our home.  Always fun ending October with Halloween.

What better way to start the month than with a bedtime story for Em?

(Oct. 1st)

 Visiting me in my office on the 3rd

spoiled rotten

Sissy had a soccer game on the 5th.  I worked the night before so went to bed in the wee hours. Needed a nap before the game started so reclined after we dropped Lex off and before the game started  Emme sang me a song.  Sweetest little girl in the world

 Eventually, we made it out of the car to watch the game

That afternoon we had a birthday party to attend
