My cousin Liza visited this weekend:

Not much else new.
Oh yes. My uncles Doug and Bruce came to visit:

Uncle Doug has many skills. Now we know from where Emily gets it:

Emily experienced her first farm implements:

She also surveyed Mississippi River flooding from on high:

And she rejected her first solid food:

Emily: you're right to refuse nasty wet cereal. Demand smashed peaches. Or pudding!
Emily is adorable,. Bruce finally responded to my request for a
pic by supplying me with your web page and what a neat one.
I've enjoyed it and my kids will too. Hope to see you for
Thanksgiving.....You two did good.
