On Emma's birthday we headed out to California to see everyone for a week.
It's hard to believe that she's already a year old! She's walking very well now, and has been trying to say more and more words.
Emma wasn't sure exactly what to make of the whole birthday thing. She was intrigued by the candle.
She tried some of the frosting.
But, in the end, she decided that she didn't want the cupcake at all, and ended up with a birthday cookie instead.
The presents part was pretty easy for her to figure out though.
We got to have all of the little cousins together. They all had a lot of fun playing together.
They even built a "snowman" out of the balls in the backyard.
We got to play at a few parks, and relax a bit. It did rain on us once, but the weather was beautiful overall.
Emma enjoyed climbing on the stairs, since we don't have any at home.
We got the kids some new clothes for church. They clean up pretty well don't they?
While there, we got to go the aquarium. It was kind of a long day, but we all enjoyed it.
Ezra had to make sure and show us how "big" the fish were.
