A Full Weekend

This weekend was packed with fun!  Matt got off Friday for the Comal County Fair, so we went to the parade in the morning and then the fair that night.  Emma loved the animals! Saturday started the project of taking apart the kitchen and re-staining all of the cabinets.  It was a lot of work and really messy, but it is looking so great!  Thanks to Jens parents for coming and helping.  We still have more work to do, but it is coming along.  Emma did great just playing outside a 

lot and taking long naps so that we could work

 hard.  Here are a few pics from the fair.

Week at the Lake

We just got back from a whole week at the lake house!  It was such a great week of playing and relaxing.  While we were there we celebrated four years of marriage, and Emma got in her fourth tooth!  We did swimming, boat rides, got some play time in with Pops and Susu, and made a lot of fun meals.  Emma also learned her love for dogs... looks like we will have to get a puppy?!?

Here are just a few pics from the week.

Happy Anniversary!

This past week we celebrated 4 great years of marriage!  It is so hard to believe that we have been married for that long.  They have been some great years.  We have grown so much and experienced a lot. We cannot wait to see what happens in the next four!  

To my husband: I love you more than I did the day we married, thank you for being a wonderful man!

Johnny Jumper

Emma loves her jumper!  When we put her in, the jumping does not stop.  Earlier today she was going straight for about 40 minutes.  It is too cute.  Sorry, not the best video but you can get the point.

Creative Minds??

The Wallers are in need of some creativity.  This is a really fun chest that we have had sitting in our garage and cannot think of what to do with it...  So, we are open for suggestions.  We used to keep magazines in it, but they curl up and we do not really like that.  

Bring on the ideas!

Summer Nights

Being in Camping Ministry, our summers are pretty crazy.  Matt usually does not get home until pretty late at night, so Jen has picked up a new hobby: sewing.  It seems there are so many fun things to make for Emma.  So, my first project came when I found this online.  My birds are done and now all I have to do is put it all together. 

These turned out so so cute, our little nephews look adorable in them!
These are some little bags that I made for my sister.  They are an Amy Butler pattern, I really like her stuff.  They turned out a lot better than I thought they would and definitely took up plenty of time working on them.
So, that is what Jen has been up to till all hours of the night.  I have some other cute things in the works but I can't share them yet... 

Always look around

Well.  Emma had been showing great signs of another tooth coming on this past week.  So, as the great mom that I thought I was, I put that Orajel along those top gums and daily I would feel to check if anything was coming through.  So, today as we were eating some yummy apples for breakfast I notice that she no longer had two teeth on the bottom, but three!  Who knew, I never even thought to look at the bottom, isn't it the rule that once they get two on the bottom next comes the top?!?  So... Emma now has three on the bottom and is much happier today as it has finally broken through!
