We celebrated Olivia's seventh birthday last week with a sleepover birthday party. Gia, Geneva, Lily and Maria came over for games, treats and fun.
Art supplies are always a huge hit in this house.
Snack time with Daddy before bed.
Olivia was very nervous prior to the recital and begged to be released of the odious task. When her turn arrived, however, she bravely stepped forward and confidently, perfectly, played her pieces. Mom and Dad were bursting with pride, how could our little person be so grown up?
Here is a pre-recital photo of Olivia and Chris thumb wrestling to reduce nervous tension. Olivia retains her champion status, she whooped him in rock-paper-scissors, too.
Olivia wanted to use the camera as a reward for playing today, so she took my photo and a shot of her new snow boots whilst on the way home. It snowed about two inches today.
Our happy tradition of sharing birthdays with our best family friends, the Archer's, continued with the recent celebration of Chloe's second birthday. Here you see Chloe and Courtney opening the generous gift of a cross necklace from Chloe's godparents, Ruth and Glen.
Here is a shot of Chloe at Naomi's school. They had a costume party as well.
Naomi dressed as a lion this year. Note the dark windows. The sun does not rise until 8:30 these days, oh and daylight saving time ends tonight. Don't forget to set back your clocks.
