Six months down, a lifetime to go...

My sister Kari and her kiddos came for a spontaneous visit in August. We had so much fun riding the alpine slides and throwing rocks in Jenny Lake. The kids made Emerson feel like a celebrity.

Kari did this photo shoot with Emerson, who was well-rested, recently fed, and luckily cooperative (mostly). The fabulous results:









It's hard to believe she is six months old.

In August we visited Bear Lake and Logan, where my sister-in-law Steph took these awesome pictures of Em. I love having photographers in the family.

Except for the part where I didn't get a raspberry shake, Bear Lake was great. I water skied and tubed for the first time in, oh, maybe five years. Terrifying! But also exhilarating, and I'm sure entertaining for bystanders.



Em & Grandpa watching cartoons (he changed the channel from tennis, figuring she'd find cartoons more interesting :)

So long, sweet summer!
