Follow me to the Latvian Village

A few days long, long ago Emily found a bus bench in Omaha, Nebraska.
Wow...that sounds like a fun place to see.

Look, Emily took a picture of herself sitting on the bus bench.
We gotta find this place.

There it is!
The Latvian Village

Look! Emily found the Latvian Village!


This brief story is dedicated to Ilze and Taylor, my precious siblings from Latvia!

I love you two!

Adventures in Omaha

I traveled to Omaha, Nebraska this weekend to be a part of a good friend's wedding. I met Ashley while working in Buffalo, NY for the STP. We survived three months in a nasty house, living in an unsafe neighborhood, but having the time of our life. We went back a second year and lived in a better place! We knew what to do the second time around!

Here are a few pictures from the weekend snapshots!
I wish the best to Ashley and Chris!



This was a snapshot of us while watching the new married couple dance the night away! Courtney (Ashley's Sister, Maid of Honor)
Alexandra (Daughter of the Best Man)
Emily (Me)


My mother was my official date to the wedding.
Note: This has to change!


Courtney and Emily

It was a beautiful castle, ceremony, and a wonderful wedding!
Despite a few bumps on the road, the wedding went very well!
We loved the dresses too!



The beautiful bride.

Will's Fun Day

Will loved the water! He will be a water baby!
Look at me swing! It's so fun.
Look at me... I'm ready to let go and walk!
Wide Eyes! I think he looks like Kate a little here!
Reminds me of an old picture of her too!

Kate's Fun Times

Look at me! I love my swingset!
I am a monkey. Completely and totally a monkey! I swing on everything!
What a fun day!
Peek-A-Boo Aunt Emily. I see you. Silly Aunt Emily.

A dog's life on a swingset....with a two-year-old!

Wally's first time to play on Kate's swingset. Oh, what fun we had today!
I barked and barked until they put me up the ladder!

The best part was going down the slide. Kate laughed and laughed at me.
I did it a few times before the weekend ended!

Playing hard makes me thirsty. Kate gave me some water.
It was out of the hose! The BEST kind in the world.

Ahh...cooling down after a hard day's work! Kate put my mama's hat on me too!
Silly Kate.
