Sledding

We don't get many snow days so when we do

the kids love to take advantage of them.

We took the kids over to the park and put Koda
to work, pulling Owen all over the field.
What a good workout that was for Koda
and a blast for Owen!

Aaron running along side trying to get a little
workout in without really doing any work!

Faster Koda, Faster!!

Olivia just walking around realizing how cold

she was. She discovered pockets and loves

putting her hands in them all the time!

Sledding and snow days are always a fun time!

Little Miss Olivia's 2nd Birthday!

My little girl is 2! I can hardly believe it. She

looks so big and grown up. We had her party

on Saturday and it was so much fun. I did

"Olivia the Pig" as a theme and then based

my colors around that! Hence the shirt!

Thinking she is so cute and so big!

Posing for mom who took so many pictures of her!

Me and Olivia! Oh how I love this little girl! I just don't

want her to grow up. She is at such the perfect, fun age.

However...her new favorite word is "NO" and I think she

is starting to throw those terrible 2 fits! I might just have

my hands full with that red hair and her temper! Oh and

I guess since she is 2 I have to start potty training.....ugh!!

The food! I must say it was a pretty good

little spread. I did cake pops/balls this

year instead of a cake. I wasn't sure a

pig cake would be very cute! Something

different is always good, right?

Olivia and her cake!

Olivia and aunt Barb.

Olivia and her BFF Claire!

Aaron opening one of her many presents

and all the girls and baby club in the back!

The candy bags!

What a fun party and time we had!
Love you little Miss Olivia!

Olivia's Birthday Present

from Grandpa and Grandma Histand

Grandpa made Olivia this adorable kitchen for

her birthday. It is so cute and he did a great job.

She of course loves it and has since spent many

hours playing with it and making lots of food!!

Grandma Histand

Grandpa and Grandma Histand were over here for almost

2 weeks for Great Grandpa Garber's funeral. Before they

left to go home they spent a few days at our house. The

kids of course loved it and soaked up every minute. Owen

and Grandma read books and put puzzles together. Olivia

and Grandma spent time playing with her dolls and dressing

them and undressing them!
