Olivia is Double Digits!!!

Olivia turned 10 on Friday. I can't believe my baby girl is 10!!! Dan and I are so blessed to have her in our lives. She truly is a light in our lives with her sense of humor, her kindness, and her unending love!!! Grace and Emma could hardly wait to get home from school to decorate for her birthday party here at the house. Olivia chose fondu, hashbrown potatoes, green bean, and asparagus for her special dinner. For her "cake", she wanted ice cream sundae pie made with black raspberry chip ice cream--her favorite!!! Happy 10th, Olivia!!!

The "Birthday Banner" she had to run through!

Notice the posters on the windows.

Drama as usual!

The BIG 4-0!

Dan turned the big 4-0 on the 17th. We had a little birthday party for him here at the house. The girls had a good time spoiling their daddy. I was feeling guilty that I didn't go all out for his 40th, but they did it up right at school with black balloons, a bucket of 40 blow pops that said, "40 Blows", and a 40oz in a brown paper bag!!! All his students had a great time! I think the funniest thing said on his birthday was by his own daughter, Grace. She said to him that morning, "Dad, I'm glad your age is finally catching up to your hair!" ---Oh, you just wait, Grace!!!
