The Year in Pictures

Snow Day

We woke up to a tiny bit of snow today.  Enough to make a few snow balls and snow angels.

Merry Christmas

Our Christmas morning started at 5:30 and Olive was excited to see that the big guy found our new house.  Santa had gifts for everyone, even Hammy and Floyd.  Ollie of course made out like a bandit.  Thanks to everyone who gave her such nice things.  We barely had time to play with everything and she is sure to enjoy all her new things for a long time.

Birthday Girl

Olive had a nice, quiet 5th Birthday.  She requested going out for pancakes for breakfast and then coming home to open presents.  We got to Skype with Auntie Boo and Aurora and then Grandma and Pop Pop while opening gifts from them.  We had cake and Olive helped Grammie make gingerbread cookies and bread.

We still can't believe our little girl is 5...

Merry Christmas

More videos

More cute videos from Olive's Christmas concert...

Sorry for the shaky quality...it's hard to fill while you are having such a good time.

Christmas Concert

Here is a clip from Olive's Christmas Concert this morning.  Olive did a great job with all the words and she sang real loud for us to hear.  It was a whole lot of cute.  I'll post a few more videos to Youtube when I get a chance.

Couple of videos for Olive's fans

I had no idea we had fans outside the family...

A couple of recent dance videos from Miss Olive.  She's got some pretty good moves (especially when she doesn't know she is being filmed) and she loves to dance.  No idea where she gets that from...

Should be a few more blogs before the end of the year with someone's birthday coming up and a visit from Mr. Claus.
