11/3/12 forks, storms and lions. OH MY!





Oh what a night we've had! 

We spent our day celebrating our anniversary. We had a great time. Once all the fun was had we decided to take a walk to Kroger to get some milk and toilet paper (the essentials). We all picked a drink that we like too. Beka got her usual peach tea, Michael got pomegranate lemonade, and Emery got a chocolate milk. YUMMY!

On the way to the store we noticed some dark clouds rolling in. On the way back they were moving faster than we were! We had to HURRY to get home. It kept getting windier and windier. We were scared we wouldn't make it! 


Emery was clueless about our worry. He was having  grand time!  He had a treat, a book, and was riding his bike super fast!



This is a photo of our house. No filter. Insanity! 



We BARELY made it home! It started raining within minuets of arriving. Whew!

Once home we had a good dinner of Spaghetti and Broccoli, two of Beka and Emery's favorites. 

Emery did something amazing at dinner. He ate with a fork!!!

We have been trying to teach him to do this for months, and he finally did!

At first he used his hands, as usual. 





Then he did it! We were cheering so loud that he started cheering for himself! 



He was pretty delighted with his new accomplishment, as were his parents. Such a big, smart boy! 




HOORAY! 




We were so excited to get a video of his new trick. However, Emery was not in the mood to corporate. 


After our failed video we took a bath with Emery. Broccoli always does a number on him. 

After the bath we dried off with the lion towel. Being that halloween just happened, Emery learned how to RAWR! and make RAWR hands. We used that trick fully tonight. The results were adorable. 











What a full night it was. Full of adventure, laughing, and celebrating. We love our little family and our "crazy" Saturday nights. We would not trade them for anything.

Thanks for sharing our moments with us.

Love,
Team Oakley
