A friend comes to visit

Today, we had a visit from a friend.  

 

Emma kept giving him hugs.

Ruth decided to smile a genuine smile for the camera.

 

We discovered something on the tree. Any guesses what it is?

Yes! They are bug shells. I know that's not the technical term for it, but that's what we now call them at our house.

Icky, Icky, says Me!

 

While the girls picked bug shells off the tree, Emma had fun putting a bucket on her head...

 

...which I thought was quite hilarious to watch and couldn't help but chuckle. 

 

Meanwhile, the girls tried to come up with a way to pick the bug shells off that were out of their reach.

And, Ruth fell off the bucket.

So, Naomi tried.  {With no success, I might add}

And, I took a REALLY, REALLY up close picture of myself and Emma and thought that it was cute of her so I decided to share.

I love her squishy cheeks.

And, then we ate lunch.

Make the most out of your everyday moments...and be sure to photograph them, even if you do fill up 100 hard drives with all of the pictures!

You'll thank yourself for it one day!
