Pink Princess Party

Pink Princess Party!!
Hannah had her birthday party and she absolutely loved it! Each day she looks like she is getting bigger and acts so grown up. She kept saying, "Look at my 3 year old hair." "I am so 3!"
Funny girl. She had a Princess cake, Princess decorations, Pink everything and she got soooo spoiled. It looked like Christmas, rather than her birthday.
Thanks everyone for coming to Hannahs party and making it so special!
Blowing out the Candles!

Carter, Hannah and Parker all smiles!
Papa and Grammie Olson got her a Hannah Montana doll, she calls it, "Hannah Monhannah."
She received 2 dolls, 10 outfits, princess lip gloss and accessories, princess wand and phone, 2 barbies, books and a Princess cd player. Spoiled.
Hannah loves getting her picture taken...
Cute Girl.

Our Princess Turns 3...TODAY!

Happy Birthday Hannah!
So our little girl turns 3 today and man I am struggling with the fact that she is getting big. So is Parker. I guess we just wanted her to stay little forever and be our Baby Girl.
Little Lady, what can I say, the past 3 years have been nothing but amazing. You fill our lives with so much love and laughter. We love every little thing about you. Your cute giggle, your "joker" smile, your big brown eyes, your crazy "flock of seagulls" hair, your funny little run, the funny things you are constantly saying, your big heart and how you love everything you lay eyes on, how you still call us, "Mama, Daddy and Bubba." You have been such a sweet little blessing to us. We hope your Birthday is everything you want it to be. The Best Pink Princess Party you could ask for!
We Love you Hannah!








LOOK WHO'S THREE!


The Birthday Girl!!

You Glow Kids!

One of the Highlights of our Idaho trip was seeing all these kids decked out in glowsticks.
They had taped glowsticks on their bodies and were running down the road in the dark.
It was seriously hilarious!

Hours of Fun

I have been side tracked with the new puppy & remembered that I still had a few posts from our Idaho Trip. We arrived at Jason's parents to find that Papa and Grammie bought this blow up water slide for the kids. They went crazy over it and so did the adults.
We had so much fun on it!
Parker doing the bounce slide. That was the name he gave it.
Mandi, Braden and Braylee having a great time.

Here comes Kayla!!
Jas and Hanny taking a turn.
Thanks Dad and Mom for the sweet slide and for all you do for us and the rest of the family when we come and invade your house for a week.
We Love You!

We Heart the Carni!

So of course when we go to Preston, we have to hit the Carnival. The kids anticipate this and they get so excited. But of course we torture them first by walking to the fair grounds and waiting in line forever for the famous "rodeo hamburger" while the kids sit on the grass staring at all the rides, but the adults tell them they can't go on any until they eat. Man, we are mean. Poor kiddies. But once we start going on the rides, they forget about everything and laugh and scream and cry when we have to leave.
David, Lisa and Emma all smiles.
Mandi and Braylee enjoying the ride.
Braylee, Emma and Hannah: Cute Girls!
David and Emma luvin the carnival.
Hannah and Mom, her favorite ride is the merry-go-round.
Parker loves the merry-go-round as well, but his favorite ride is the bigfoot trucks.
What I can't figure out is why kids love the carnival so much, because all they do is go around in a circle a ton of times over and over again. It makes me dizzy just thinking about it.
Either way, they all had a great time and that is what it is all about.


PaRAde/CaNdY TiMe!!

The annual Preston Parade. What it entitles: Lots and Lots of Candy, Screaming kids, Lots of Horses and Rodeo Queens, Hilarious floats, Tractors, Free Pepsi and Milk, oh and did I mention Lots of candy and of course happy kids.
Braden, Lexi, Kayla, Parker and David waiting for the candy.
Howdy Hannah!

Parkers favorite part of the parade, the extremely large tank. Hannah was in awe of the tank.
Lexi and Parker taking a break from candy picking.
Hannah loved waving at all of the rodeo queens.

We're Home...

So we are home from Idaho. We had a great week. We ate, swam, roasted mallows and had smores, kids dug for bugs (all day) in Papa Kings garden, we went to the hot springs, saw a movie, went to the carnival, saw the parade twice, Jason and Mandi had words with a mean man at the parade, Hannah got hit in the head with flying candy, we dyed my hair blonde, I read Breaking Dawn in two days, we played Rock Band and laughed a lot. We had a wonderful time and the kids cried most of the way home because they didn't want to leave. So all in all, it was a great trip and we miss everyone already. We love you all and we can't wait to see you guys again!

I will post pics very soon.....but I need to clean my house first and get back on track. Oh the joys of coming home from vacation. :)

Breaking Dawn

So, I am officially obsessed. I can't stop thinking about Edward, Bella and Jacob. I am massively into the new book. Breaking Dawn has me staying up until dawn reading. I can't get enough. I am happy that the new book is out, but sad that it is the last one.
I hope those of you that are reading the book are enjoying it as much as I am!
I Heart Edward.
