Sunday Pictures

Finals week is allllmost over. Pete's last final is Monday and then we get the rest of the week to just all play together. We have a big list of plans. Last week was pretty good for a finals week. Emery and I entertained ourselves pretty well while Pete studied. A few of our week's events included:

-A little shopping with Emery. I found some cute PJ's and outfit for her.

-Having our friend Dan Neff over for dinner while his wifey was away in Utah. We had him over on Sunday and dinner was, well, an epic failure. A delicious dish I've made several times just didn't quite turn out right. Dan was brave enough to come to dinner on Wednesday as well, and I think the meal turned out a bit better 

-Making cupcakes! Not a big deal...but I had been craving them for two days and the finished product just really hit the spot. I've been wanting to do more baking but it's seemed kind of overwhelming with a baby (I'm usually lucky to get dinner made). This was the first time I had made cupcakes since Emery was born--I like to think of it as a "mommy milestone"--so hopefully that means bigger and better things are ahead!

-Speaking of mommy milestones, Pete and I went on a date this weekend---without Emery! The Ford family graciously offered to watch her. Though I felt bad adding to their clan of 4 kids, they said Emery did awesome the whole time and we could leave her with them anytime. Hopefully they let us return the favor in the future, we love their 3 boys and little baby girl that is Emery's age. We had a hard time leaving Emery, but I think it was good for us.

-Finishing reading aloud "The Hunger Games." Ready for book 2 just in time for Pete's week off!

-Got ready for church early enough to make it there on time and even snap a few pics beforehand. The morning light was beautiful and the forest-y area right by our apartment was so lush and green looking. Georgia is starting to grow on me I think...if I could somehow get past the bugs, the process would be much speedier :) 

Happy Sunday!
