Duke Chapel and Sarah Duke Gardens

We took Uncle Jake, B-Bar and Grammy to the Duke Chapel and the Duke Gardens. I told mommy that "someone made that castle for us". There were bells that were playing, it was very neat. I couldn't believe how big it was. It was also very hot on this day. We trekked through the gardens, mommy was having fun taking pictures. Below is a lily pad that she thought was cool. We saw a lot of turtles enjoying sunning themselves. The puppy that I am holding is my new puppy Luna, someday soon daddy is going to buy mommy and I a real puppy!

Birthday

Here is a birthday greeting from Emily's Cousins, Alexandra & Caleb.

My 3rd birthday

My 3rd birthday was a lot of fun. I received a lot of fun gifts. This is me with my new cowgirl outfit that Grammy made me and my new horse, Horsey. Grammy came to visit me and so did B Bar and Uncle Jake. Daddy and Mommy stayed up late and decorated the dining room and my bedroom.

Here is a video clip of everyone singing happy birthday to me!

Visiting Cousins

Last weekend we visited daddy's Aunt Lois,( I call her Aunt Lewis) and her husband Ron in Morrisville. Daddy's cousin Jamie was up from florida with his wife Lori and their two girls Meghan and Adrienne. I had a lot of fun. Mommy brought my picnic basket and we had a picnic in Aunt Lois's living room because it was too hot outside. Then Aunt Lois and Ron made a turkey dinner out of a can in backyard. It was yummy. Mommy and Lori took us outside and were taking a lot of pictures of us. Then we had cupcakes that Aunt Lois made for us. It was a great day. I am glad that I got to meet and play with Meghan and Adrienne. I hope to see them again soon.
I hope that you enjoyed the pictures. I know that it has been a while. Mommy went back to work a few weeks ago and now she doesn't have as much time to take pictures and download them! Check back after this next weekend because it is my birthday and I know there will be some good pictures. My Grammy and B Bar and Uncle Jake are coming!!!!

This is daddy with his cousin Jamie.

This is Erin and I. Erin is the finance of Ben who is another one of daddy's cousins. I was reading to her.

This is my tousseled, get out of bed look. I know everyone is jealous.

Aren't they cute?

Mommy and Lori were trying really hard to get us all to look at the same time. I was really interested in my stick. Sometimes I get so sick of posing for the camera!

I really liked Aunt Lewis's cupcakes.

This is Meghan, she liked the cupcakes too!

BUSY BUSY BUSY

Sorry there are no pictures. We have been so busy and mommy hasn't had time to take pictures. She did take a video of daddy and I playing soccer but it it too long. Mommy and I started school this week and we have been so busy. I like my new school but I still talk about my old friends all the time. I think that I almost potty trained. That makes mommy and daddy very happy! We are going visiting this weekend so hopefully there will be pictures when we come back.
