Daddy- Daughter Dance

Tonight, Jon took Olivia to her first Daddy- Daughter Dance.  She has been SOOOOO excited about this night! She picked out her own dress a few weeks ago. She wanted to get her hair done at a "professional place", so I took her to get a trim and updo today.  She recently found the tiara that I wore on my wedding day and she has been asking to wear it, so I let her.  I am already anxious for them to get home so I can hear all about it!

First Day of Preschool

Since I'm so far behind on the blog, I'm going to attempt to catch up by working backwards.  (It was a BUSY and FUN summer!)


Olivia started Preschool today.  She is continuing at Saint Theresa and Mrs. Zimmerman will be her teacher again this year.

Big Boyd Preserve Hike

Lake Tobias Wildlife Park

Visit to Arkansas

Olivia and I spent 2 weeks in Arkansas.  It was nice to catch up with everyone, but the best part of the trip was the weekend we spent at Spring River with my mom, Glen, Abby, and Mason.  It was nice to just get away with them, play in the river, fish, and sit by the campfire. 

Last Day of Preschool

Today was Olivia's last day of preschool.  She loves her teachers, Mrs. Zimmerman and Mrs. D, and has made some really good friends in the few months there.  The teachers have been a huge blessing to our entire family, and we are thankful she will have them again next year.

Olivia's Birthday Party

Today, we celebrated Olivia's birthday by having her friends over for a Frozen party.  It was a beautiful day, and we all had so much fun!  Poohsie Woosie (from preschool) even came home with Olivia for the weekend!

We feel so incredibly blessed to have met so many wonderful people here already, as well as to have our Maryland friends here to celebrate with.  Happy Birthday, Olivia! We love you to the moon and back... and then some!!!
