Emmaisms

First she begins many things by saying, "The problem is...." also " So here is the deal"

Going to the barn to feed bolt
Emma- "I need mimi to come with us so she can hold me and I won't have to wash my hands because I won't touch the kitty or Bolt"
Me- OK we can do that
Emma ( After we got to the barn) - "Ok mimi you can just put me down I HAVE to pet that kitty cat! ( She just couldn't stand the temptation)


While her Baby Mammaw was watching her
Emma- Why do your arms look like that?
Mammaw - Because I am old.
Emma later on - You really are old Mammaw!
Mammaw - I know I told you I was! Can you help me I am old?
Emma- No mammaw! I am not Jesus!

At her Mammaw Jeffers house
Mammaw gave me some jewelry to which Emma says
"I am obsessed with jewelry! I am just a jewelry girl!"

My girl keeps me cracking up!

Behind with Lots to tell

The week after we got Bolt.....the Brownings had a full week of going going and more going. We were trying to go and visit/feed/brush Bolt on a regular basis so he would get used to us. This apparently worked because Bolt now comes when we call him.



Also kickball is up and running which makes Ryan's and my Sundays super busy. Fitting church and kickball in basically takes up the entire day, but I love it! Our Team has steadily been improving and we got moved to the Upper division of the novice bracket. I assumed this would mean we would get stomped by all the other teams but our current record is 2-2 which I am pretty pleased with!



On top of that Emma has Started MDO again and is now going two days a week. She loves it and seems to be doing really well. Loves her teachers and is making friends as well. The first day she came home and told me she got in trouble for talking at naptime with a friend and that the teacher told her SSSHHHH! When I asked her what she was talking about she promptly replied, "Dolphins!" That must be very important naptime conversation :)




I got cast as a principle role in a commercial I had auditioned for in Little Rock. The commercial was filmed at Mount Magazine and they paid for a room at the lodge since it was such an early call time. It was so much fun. My mom and Emma went up with me and we stayed in the Lodge which was Beautiful! Mom and Emma got to sleep in and swim in the pool and I got to see the makings of a commercial. The commercial is for Chesapeake Energy and Natural Gas/Clean Air. It will be a nationwide commercial and will also be print and billboards. As I went down to breakfast I didn't know anyone so sat at a table alone. A gentleman with an austrailian accent invited me to sit at a table with a few others from the crew. I sat down and they asked where I was from. I told them Little Rock and before I knew it in my most southern drawl I said, "Where are ya'll from?" They replied Los Angeles and I felt quite out of place. Later in Wardrobe I found out I was sitting with the Director and Director of Photography. They turned out to be very nice and explained tons of the commercial process to me. It was a very interesting day!



We also traveled to some dear friends wedding in French Lick Indiana. It was a beautiful wedding and a beautiful reception of a very deserving couple. Check out there story here

Lots more to tell but this is all I can squeeze into naptime!
