Santa was good!

Santa Baby!!

My little caroler

She told her teachers she would not sing this song during the Christmas Show. She claimed that it scared her because it was too slow. Guess she is over being scared!

Festive

She's ready to party!

Naughty or nice?

Maybe a little of both...

Dancer Part II

So proud of her!

The smaller video is clear. If you make it larger by clicking on the bottom corner arrows, it will be blurry.

Look Mom, I'm dancing!

And look how happy she is!

Who's that little Indian?

It's Olivia! She went on stage and sang for the Thanksgiving performance.

On the left is Brennan and the right is Hunt. If you ask who her friends are at school, she will tell you Hunt and Brennan are her best friends.

They had a Thanksgiving Feast for lunch. I volunteered to help so I snagged a cute picture of her in costume.

Time to build a house

I promised Olivia after Thanksgiving we could build the gingerbread house. Just ask my Dad...this girl does not forget a promise! If you make one, you better be ready to keep it! Since we got back from Richmond on Saturday, I managed to hold her off until Sunday. After breakfast we got started on the house.


She takes her decorating very seriously!


Easy does it, one candy at a time





Trying to use the icing bag on her own. She did pretty well with it.

Future Hope Solo?

Olivia is thankful for...

Dressing fancy for a fancy tea at school.



a good dog named Seven. Who doesn't jump on me anymore.

Pink hair feathers...or feaders as Olivia says it ;)

60 degree November days.

This one I found on the board at school. LOVE. IT.

Splish Splash Texas Style

The little guy...who is getting so big (sniff, sniff)!!





Action shot. I am pretty sure they are all screaming...check out their mouths!



I love how well they got along during this trip!

Silly kids!

Side Note... Does any one think Olivia looks like me in this picture? For some reason, I am pretty sure I have a prom picture with a similar facial expression and pose ;)

Best Buds

This is my cousin Connor


We are best friends

Cousins=Best Buds :)

This picture is my favorite. Love how his little hand is holding her close and how happy Connor is. They had a blast together in Houston!

Chilly Weather = Hot Cocoa

Ready to have a sip.

She decided this was the best technique to start the cup.

Diving in

Hot chocolate mustache


** Oh, did you notice the feather in Olivia's hair? Yeah, she got her haircut on Saturday and my hair dresser offered to put a feather in. Olivia requested pink...she will tell anyone who asks "Pink is my favorite color". She loves it!!

Halloweens of years past

Baby's First Halloween- Sweet Strawberry


Little Ladybug

A butterfly that goes flap, flap...

Little Red Riding Hood...sweet girl :)

Girl in the hood....

Little Red Riding Hood munching on some popcorn. She was the cutest little girl there...of course my opinion might be a bit biased ;)


Icing cupcakes. She wanted pink icing but decided purple would do.

A little unsure about her cotton candy. She decided it was pretty awesome.

Pumpkin Time

Helping scoop out the orange gooey and seeds. She took out ONE seed and said she was done. She wasn't a fan of the orange gooey.



Olivia instructed me to carve triangles for the eyes and mouth and silly smile with teeth. This pumpkin was for Will



Everyone should wear princess flip flops while carving pumpkins

Excited to help.

Olivia drew the face on this one and I carved it.

Baking is better in TX

Baking banana muffins with Aunt Shauna is the best!
