oNe Big uPdaTe

things are going well in kc. we have had a few pretty hectic weeks so i'm going to give you all the exciting updates in one post.


johanna & jason's wedding
a couple of weeks ago we flew to abilene for my cousin, johanna's wedding. it was such a fun weekend filled with lots of family time. here are a few pics from the weekend.

the family at the reception. mr. emery was a bit tired.





prom '08

my cutie sister in law, melissa...the girl who can do anything...hem a dress, knit a scarf, curl hair, fix your make-up for bridal portraits, put together a tulip bouquet, raise chickens, cook delicious meals...you name it, she can do it.







need i say more? the cutest little kid ever, my nephew, emery harrison levrets.







taco salad night
one night we made taco salad and apparently regular bowls were not large enough for my manly man. he had to use a pyrex mixing bowl...this doesn't really have anything to do with our hectic weeks, i just thought it was funny.


it's official...clay's a lawyer

we found out about a week ago that clay passed the bar. woo hoo! this past friday, we took a little road trip with gary & terri to the beautiful capital city of missouri. clay was sworn into the state and federal courts of missouri. after the ceremony, we headed to columbia, mo for a little lunch and street wandering.

we have had a fun couple of weeks and hope you have too!
