Monday July 9th, Emery and I headed up to Boone to meet my parents, Grandma and Tara's whole crew for an entire week! Jamie and Kyle were out of town traveling, so it was the perfect time for the rest of us to get together and keep each other company (although we definitely missed Jamie, Kyle and Nick!). We had rainy weather most of the time we were there, but that didn't stop us from having great quality time together. Playing on the porch, exploring in the yard, going to a nearby park, eating delicious food and celebrating my 29th Birthday all together... it was all so fun!
Emery's favorite spot these days is the front steps with the rocks... she would play there all day if we let her!
Fun times at the park:

We had a wonderful Birthday dinner and present opening:
Tara brought a sky-lantern to "release" as a birthday celebration. Up, up, and away it went!
Everyone did sparklers after, while Emery and I snuck inside to skype with Kyle. At the end of our talk everyone joined in the fun to see "Uncle Kyle".
Mom made the most delicious dinner and ice cream pie. Kyle was even able to join in on singing Happy Birthday to me!
We all played some games after dinner, and Milo wanted to be a part of them as usual. Too funny!
And we had to partake in our usual scrabble game with the ladies!
I love how we all laugh SO HARD when we are all together. Always have, always will :)
On Friday, my actual Birthday, before Emery and I left we had a sticky bun from StickBoy. Thank y'all for making my birthday so special!
It was such a great week spent with family and I left being so grateful for them and how loved they all make me and Emery feel on a daily basis. THANK YOU, love y'all!
