Maybe Lola?

Emma (and I) want one of these...

How can you not. We're working on Barry and I think he's breaking a little. Our friends have a Shih Tzu, named Maggie, and Emma has done tremendously well with her. So, this is all I hear about these days. "When can I get my dog?"

Catch of the Day...

Saturday we went with our friends, the Sweitzer's to Lake Conroe to go fishing. Within 10 minutes Emma had caught her very first fish. She was pretty excited, but didn't want to get to close to it.

Horse Back Riding...

A few weeks ago Emma went to a birthday party for her friend and they did horseback riding! This was Emma's first time on a horse and while it took some encouragement from the "handler" Emma did great.

The pictures are out of order...the last picture was the "handler" helping Emma get use to the horse, Summer, and she rode with her a little then slipped off the back and let Emma go on her own. The whole experience almost brought tears to her mama's eyes.

Notice her cowboy boots. "Thank you Grammy and Papa for my boots."

There she is on her own.

This was Emma first getting on and getting encouragement. Now Emma wants her birthday party at this place so she can horseback riding again.
