Vacation and Bug Bites

Emmy went on her first vacation to Michigan and had a great time. It was an extra special trip for Dave and I since we were in Michigan last summer when we got her referral. The house wasn't Emmy-proofed so we had to follow her around for a couple to find out where all the disaster areas were, but overall we had a great time. Emmy was literally feasted on by the mosquitos. She had 17 bug bites on her face! I thought she had chicken pox, but then I remembered she's had the vaccine! I guess she just tastes a lot better than her old mom & dad. Her favorite things to do were blow bubbles and drop acorns into milk jugs. So much for the all the toys I brought.

This is just the beginning of a lot of vacation experiences. You'll treasure them all. It's great to watch wide eyed children learn and discover new things and that's Emmy's thing....the discovery, she loves to figure it out. Well one trip down and a million more to go...:^)

Love, Teri and Ralph
