Playing Catch-Up

I know I promised to blog about mine and Chris's pre-deployment leave trip to Texas and mini-vacation to Las Vegas, so in order to catch up quickly I'm writing a short synopsis of each in a couple of quick posts. I'll do my best to keep them under a mile long! :)

Meeting Emily

After getting all of our stuff into storage and packing our car to the roof with everything I was moving home, we hit the road for our cross-country (half of the country, anyway) trip to Texas. After two days on the road, we arrived in Gatesville to my parent's house, and the place I'm calling home for the next 7 months. The next day we headed off to Houston to meet my sister's first baby, our precious new niece, Emily!

Precious Baby Girl!!

Sleeping angel...

I don't think I put her down for at least 5 hours :)

What is this crazy lady talking about?!

Love this picture!

Chris and Little Emmy :)

We absolutely loved getting to meet this little sweetheart and had a great time with our family! Thanks Mom & Dad and Andrea & Ben for putting us up all week!
