My name is Emily.

I love people in love.

I cry at every wedding.

I own a striped umbrella. Everyone should.

I love my pug. His name is Edward.

I dream of having a house with enough closet hooks for my scarves and hats.

Laughing is great.

I believe there is nothing better than a day with the people you love.

And I absolutely love to take photos.


And this is my blog. Expect to see people in love, expect to laugh and read, and expect to see what I love and why I love it! Welcome to my blog. I am glad you are here.

Nelsons-09-Sept-063.jpgProbably one of the cutest families in the neighborhood, The Olson family stole my heart last week with their little Cooper, who just turned one! Dusty and Lexie are downright fun parents that LOVE to play with Cooper and make him laugh until his belly hurts. We spent some time running around their backyard while Cooper kept exploring the ants, sand, sticks and fresh leaves that had fallen to the ground---he was mesmerized!

Cooper's blue eyes and blond spiky hair are enough to steal anyone's attention from across the room---and the best part is that he has 2 perfectly cute little teeth that are coming in front and center! They are sooooo adorable when he smiles to show off his new pearly whites AND dimples! *sigh* :)

Mommy and Daddy could get Cooper to laugh so much that I started giggling right along with him! :)

I *ADORE* the Olson's and can not wait to see how, you, Mr. COOPER grow up to be quite the handsome, young little gent running around the neighborhood. Your family is gosh-darn awesome and I can't get enough of ya'all! :)

My nephew Cooper is so darn cute and I don't know how you could have made him even cuter...but you did, you are perfection!
