It was damp and cold on Monday, so we stole an idea from Miss Sarah and had a popcorn party. Emma was so excited. "Oh! I love popcorn!" We both enjoyed snuggling on the couch under a warm fuzzy blanket and catching up on a few Dora episodes.
Speaking of Dora, Emma loves her Dora Backpack and wears it proudly around the house when she can figure out how to get it on the right way!
Now that her hair is getting longer, we finally get to have some fun with it. I put it into braided pigtails the other day, and I couldn't believe how old it made her look! 
Emma gets to spend the night with Grandma & Grandpa Hill tomorrow night, so that she can go downtown with them on Thursday morning to watch Mommy & Daddy cross the finish line at the Atlanta Half Marathon. She is super excited to cheer for us. And it's a good thing because we are going to need all the cheering we can get!
We walked past the softball fields, fed the geese at the pond, and strolled through the little farmers market.
Then we hit the playground...Emma's favorite stop.
She had so much fun that we got to endure a classic 3-year old temper tantrum when she realized we were leaving. Then she slept so soundly all the way home that she literally had drool running down her chin. Guess we wore her out!
One of the few times she put up the antennae:
Tried to snag a group pic of the kids when we ran into Jackson. Darn wagon handle!
Cutest kitty on the street:
Not only was Emma miserable because it was cold & drizzly while we were trick-or-treating, but we found out Sunday morning that she had come down with pink eye. After visiting the doctor today, it turns out the pink eye was actually caused by an ear infection. No wonder poor Emma wasn't feeling very chipper in the cold and rain! But she's on some meds, and we are now on the road to recovery.
