Back to life in Tennessee, good to be home!

Yes that is right, Mommy and I have moved back to Tennessee! We made it back just in time for Father's Day which made Daddy very happy. We took our time driving back and it was a really fun road trip, thank goodness Gigi came with us, she was a big help for Mommy, both with the driving and with me...lol!

On Father's day Mommy and Gigi made a yummy breakfast for Daddy and then we had some family time up on Roan Mountain. We went to the Rododendrum festival, it was really hot but lots of fun. The higher up the mountain we got, the closer and closer the clouds got, by the time we got to the flowers, you almost couldn't see them because of the clouds! I fell asleep before we made it up to the top.




The weather has been super nice here in Tennessee, so we have been spending lots of time outside. I always make sure to wear a hat and a pair of sunglasses, this way I am all protected from the sun, well I guess I can't forget my sunscreen.

A few days ago Mommy and Daddy decided to bring my little table up from the rec room and every once in a while they let me eat my breakfast and lunch there, just like a big girl!




On Friday night, we went to a dinner at one of Daddy's new Chief Residents house, her name is April. She had all the residents over for dinner and to get a chance to meet all the new 1st years, it was lots of fun. April has two little girls and they have tons of toys, I really enjoyed pushing the stroller with one of their babies in it!






On Saturday we went to the annual Residents picnic, check out my cute outfit I got to wear. I was dressed all in Tennessee orange and white, right down to my shades!






Mommy and I got to sit on the Teeter Totter together, it was so neat!

There were tons of fun kids things to do at the park where the picnic was held, I just don't know what I enjoyed the most.


It might have been the bubbles, I love bubbles...! The clown had a whole bunch of bubbles so Mommy opened up the bottle and started making tons of bubbles and I tried to catch them all.

The clown lady painted a flower on my face, at first I wasn't too sure about it, but after it was all done, I really liked it! Plus she also made me a balloon animal and I love balloon animals.

Last night we had a "Welcome back to America dark party" with all of our wonderful neighbors, it is so nice to be back and get to hang out with all of them (but we forgot to take pics). Check out the video below of Fisher and I bouncing on the trampoline, I can almost get both feet off the ground. Mommy's friend Kara is babysitting me during the week and I love it because her house is full of kids; Ella, Fisher, Molly, Payton and now me!!! Thanks Kara!
Mommy and Daddy finally got around to getting our pool all ready, even though summer has been here for 2 months...So we went swimming this morning, it was awesome. I love the water and I am such a big girl I can do it all by myself. One of my favorite things to do is climb on the ladder and jump into the pool, just like a big girl! Check out the video below.

Well hope everyone back in Canada is finally getting to enjoy the warmer weather. I am exhausted from my busy weekend and I need to go and take a very long nap!
Love y'all
Emmie
