Random Updates

I thought I'd just throw on some random pictures to keep everyone posted on what we've been up to lately........
We put the Christmas tree up last weekend. Emma was very excited.

Emma hanging the first ornament.

Here's a fun piece of information.....the day after this photo was taken.......the tree fell over, ornaments and all!!! We survived with only a few broken ornaments and a few tears.....Emma and I certainly won't forget watching that happen. The tree is back up and standing strong.


Emma and Brad made a snowman!!! We have a whole lot more snow than this now.....this was only the beginning.

Emma got her first haircut!!!! November 21st she and I had our hair cut together up in the mall in Marquette. Grandma Erickson came with for support. You can see she was a bit nervous and shy, but she did a really great job of sitting still. I was so proud of her.



Here is Emma with Great Grandpa Weemhoff in November. He made Emma her very first jewelry box. She loves it and tells everyone how her Great Grandpa made it for her. What a special gift.








Hunting Success

Brad had another successful hunting season. He got to spend time with his friends/family, have a lot of fun, and fill our freezer at the same time. Here are a few of the not-so-lucky deer. There were many more deer taken by Mark, James, Jarrod and the Cattail crew..... Sorry guys, I don't have pictures of all of the fallen. :)
