On Wednesday Donette (my brother’s wife) and her son Jadon drove in from Columbia, SC to spend a few days. It was Jadon’s first time meeting his cousin Emma Kate. Alison, Donette, Jadon, and EK has a great time hanging out while I was at work. On Friday they met at my office and we all went to the airport to pick up Jay (my brother) who was flying in from a Portland business trip. From the airport we drove to Marietta to eat at Pappasito’s. It is a delicious Mexican restaurant! Emma Kate was an angel. I fed her while we were there and Alison held up during much of the meal. EK just looked around staring at every thing. I think she loves getting out and seeing new things.

The 1.5-2 hour ride home wasn’t quite as enjoyable. EK showed off her healthy lungs and vocal chords, while Jay and Donette tried their hardest to soothe her. No such luck!

I do have a few photos of Jadon’s visit, but I don’t have them ready to upload yet. I’ll add them soon!

UPDATE – finally some photos:
