Happy Birthday Olivia!


I know I am posting lots tonight, but I better make use of me finally making it back here! Olivia turned 5! She had a really fun day. I made cupcakes and took them into her class at school. Then we had a fun family party that night at the park. Thanks everyone for coming, it's so awsome to have so much family who supports and shows so much love to our family! Olivia really is changing! I have loved our deeper conversations and the big words she always uses out of context. Today while I was brushing her hair she told me to stop because I was ruining her appetite. She just keeps us all laughing! I love her so much and feel so blessed to be able to be her mother.

Violin Recital



Olivia had her first Violin recital last Thursday. It was so cute. She is really doing good, she preformed 2 songs. When she gets nervous she gets silly, so it was very funny at moments with her little silly dance she would throw into her piece. She is really loving the violin. She will practice without me even asking her. Today I woke up from a nap to her playing her violin upstairs, it was really sweet. I love having music in our home!

Fun Quilting



Yes, it has been FOREVER since I have posted. I have been into quilting lately, and I love it! I made this for my niece Katie for her 2nd birthday. I also made a Halloween one that I am having quilted. I will post it when I get it back.

First Day of School!





It has finally arrived! The first day of School. The girls were so excited. Earlier this week we bought sweater stackers and put their outfits in for every day, so this morning they got up, got their clothes from the Tuesday section and got all dressed. I could tell they were really excited, especially Olivia. It is so crazy that she is already in Kindergarten! I love that they are at school together now.
