Not hip Enough for Feathers

So, went to Olivia's hairdresser and got the adult version of her cut!!  It feels so nice and it will cut my drying time in half!  So, I'm not hip enough for a feather, but I tried the cut.   

Haircuts, Feathers and Urgentcare

Well, Wednesday started off really nice with new haircuts.  After a "trim" by Olivia herself, we decided it needed to be all evened up, so Miss Alison gave her a really cute haircut followed by a feather.  Who knew feathers were all the rage!!

Well, not long after these pics, Olivia cut her knee on the recliner in the living room.  Not sure exactly how it happened....  Anyway, it was just deep enough it needed some attention, but maybe not stitches.  So, after two hours at UrgentCare, we came home with steri-strips.  The nurse did mention stitches before the doctor looked at it and Olivia went to pieces.  So, thank goodness for a little thing called steri-strips.  It's funny how a night can change so fast...   

Happy 7th Birthday Olivia!!

Well, our plans for the waterpark were rained out, like every other birthday pool party this year. Instead I took Olivia and three of her friends to Chuck E. Cheese and shopping in the mall. When Olivia suggested shopping, I thought "how can I handle shopping with 4 girls"?? Well, they done great, plus one of the parents generously offered to go with us! No siblings can make for trying times when you need an extra person to tag along. Dalton had also invited a friend over to go to the waterpark, but since it was rained out, Brian stayed home with the boys and played video games. I guess 8 year old boys are too old for Chuck E. Cheese! The girls still had fun!

I didn't know 4 girls could fit in a monster truck! 

Shopping at apparently all 7 year old's favorite store--- Justice!

Back to our for Pizza and Ice Cream Cake..  Yum!

She was trying to share her pizza with Brian.   

Funny, they all bought fuzzy slippers at Justice and had to put them on as soon as we stepped in the house!  Okay, well, maybe on the way home!

After accusing Olivia that she wasn't smiling, this is the reaction that I received.  Well, it's better than not smiling!

Okay, I've been playing with picture editing a little.  Thought this turned out pretty. 

and this was a cool effect, too!

They even had a little playtime outside. 

So, even though it didn't rain for the rest of the day and we may have been able to go to the waterpark, we still had a great time!  Can't believe my little girl is already 7 years old.  Happy Birthday Olivia!

First Day of School 2011

Olivia started 2nd grade with Mrs. Becky!

Dalton is in 3rd grade with Mrs. Lesley!

I can't believe I have a 2nd and 3rd grader.  They really do like school, even if they say their favorite subject is recess!  I am so proud of both of them.  They both do an awesome job.
