Lisa came over to party with Emma Kate and her parents for New Year’s Eve. I can’t say it was the most happening party in Georgia, but I’m sure we had more fun than anyone else in Williamson (which is not saying much, considering we have about 5 people in the town younger than 70!).
Emma Kate absolutely loves Lisa. Here are a couple shots w/ her “got milk?” shirt on.
**UPDATED 1/24/2007 – substituted 3 higher resolution scanned photos in place of lowrez digital ones.**
These were a gift of Nana & Papaw Oran at the JCPenney photo studio in Knoxville a few days after Christmas. Emma Kate with cousins Jake and Megan:
On Christmas Day after lunch we drove to Lenoir City, outside of Knoxville, to celebrate Christmas with Alison’s side of the family. Emma Kate slept almost the entire way!

Emma Kate’s first long road trip was the 4 hour drive to Grandma and Grandpa Kirkland’s house for Christmas. We had planned to leave on Friday afternoon. At about 9PM, when the car was almost packed, we decided it would be better just to go ahead and sleep one more night in Georgia and drive Saturday morning. Emma Kate slept for about 3 hours of the trip. She was the perfect little rider. I knew how long the trip could be if she wasn’t asleep or happy for most of it, so I was extremely grateful when we arrived without any crying at all!
After we got there, we opened gifts with my sister (Dee), her husband (J.), their son (Addison), their daughter (Madeline), my brother (Jay), his wife (Donette), and their son (Jadon). Here’s a pictorial account of the 2 days in South Carolina.
