Certamen Tournament

This past weekend, Eric hosted a Certamen tournament (a Latin competition) at his school with a few hundred kids in attendance. There was also one kid there that Eric likes to refer to as "the littlest Roman"...

Emily was there to assist Dad with all the important activities like eating lunch, keeping the students entertained, "adjusting" the books on the library shelves, and presenting and cheering during the awards ceremony.

Eric and Emily at work...

See, here's Emily doing her job to keep the students entertained.

Still entertaining....

For someone so shy, she sure did enjoy all of the attention!

Trip to Grandpa's and Random Happenings...

This past weekend we loaded up and headed down to Grandpa Adams' place.

Emily loaded and ready.

While there, we strolled around the whole perimeter of Grandpa's property


Emily got to run free in the field


Here's Grandpa with his new ride


We posed for a family portrait.

Here's a random mix of recent activities:

Quality time with her buddy Liam

Happy Halloween!

Introducing...... Wonder Woman!

Here's her angry face for having to wear the headband. She only wore the headband for about 2.4 seconds...

Emily attended a Halloween party on Friday where she got to hang out with a fairy, a pumpkin, a loaf of Wonderbread, and Yoda. Here she is in the bouncy house with Yoda.

Wonder Woman (minus headband) to the rescue!

Happy Halloween!
