Best Daddy in Town

I know people always say that their husband is the best daddy, but seriously my hubby is the BEST DADDY a kid could ever have. He is funny, crazy, loving, caring, a big kid, considerate, loves to teach our children, loves to make them laugh and he is just hands down the Best Daddy in Town. Our kids Love Love Love him and there is always lots of cheers and screaming when daddy comes home from work. Even Jed our dog gets in on the fun, he gets just as excited as the kids do. Jas, thanks for being an awesome dad to our babes! We love you tons and tons!

We are one lucky bunch to have each other!!

Lindseys Birfday

We headed over to Papa and Grammie O's to celebrate Aunt Lindsey Birfday. The kids love birfdays! I assume it is because we get to eat cake and ice cream. And yes I am saying Birfday quite a bit in this post, since that is what Hanny calls them.

These 4 kids are crazy!
Carter wrote Lindsey on this envelope. But, it actually came out looking more like, "Lina sex." We were laughing pretty hard about this most of the day. It was classic.

The birfday cake.

Ava was more than thrilled to eat cake.

She is a goof.


Let them eat cake!

Happy Birfday Linz! We love you tons and tons!

Shades

Lately Ava is loving sunglasses. She calls them, "Sades" It is hilarious. The only problem is that the little stink keeps breaking them, gggrrrr. She doesn't break the $ store ones I buy, she breaks the nice ones. I have a hard time getting mad at her though, since she looks so cute in shades.

Love that smile!
Giving me the pout.

Being Silly.

So Serious.

Time for a snack.

Being Shy.

Love this little babe to pieces.

Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum

I took Parker, Carter and Ava to the Bean Museum. Hannah was out with Grammie O. having a girls day. The boys were totally pumped about seeing the animals. They asked ALOT OF QUESTIONS. Mostly they wanted to know if all the animals were real or were they fake. What they ate and if Papa O. had shot any of them. It was hilarious!

The museum has different fun searches that the kids can do. Parker and Carter decided to do the ABC search and find animals that started with every letter in the alphabet. This lasted about 20 mins and then they just wanted to look and explore.
To Papa Olson: We want you to hunt this moose. Actually, we are pretty positive you have already hunted a moose, but if for some reason we are wrong, please do it soon. From: Parker and Carter

Checking the baby animal out.

Parker and Carter also loved the big ol' Rhino.

Parkers favorite was the elephant that was named Humphrey.

My favorite was the Zebra.

Carters favorite was this big scary bear that scared Ava.







Ava loved this bear and kept telling me, "Mom yook. Baby gggrrrr."

On to the bugs. Fun.

Loved the butterfly exhibit, so pretty and amazing.

The boys of course liked the beetle exhibit. I can't believe there are actually that many beetles out there, gross! They had a place where you could feel the skin of different animals.


Ava loved this and kept saying, "owie" when she would touch them. Who knows why.





We had a great time at the museum.

Lunch at the Creamery

I took the kids to the BYU Creamery after we went to the Bean Museum. They loved it. They got ice cream, grilled cheese and fries. They loved sitting in the booth and little kids get lots of attention there because there are only college kids around. So of course the kids were showing off most of the time.

Carter and Parker just hanging out.
Miss Ava is a ham. She thought everything was hilarious. She was laughing at her grilled cheese. She thought the french fries were hysterical and she kept shoving them up her flippin' nose until someone noticed her and then she would laugh and eat it. Seriously, this baby is a nut.

Laughing at herself.

Chowin' down.

Diggin' in. You show that sandwich who's boss girl! All smiles.



And of course we need a crazy picture.

We had lots of fun.

Princess Festival

Princess Hannah got invited to the Princess Festival. She was so excited to go because she was going with her Grammie Olson. Just her and Grammie, no one else. She was in heaven. We went and bought her a new Belle dress & some jewelery. She also made me do her hair all fancy. She is definitely a Princess.
Hannah woke up that morning with a little infection in her eye. Luckily, we had drops for it and she started feeling better that evening. She was panicked that I wouldn't let her go with Grammie if she told me her eye hurt.

The Festival was help at the Gardens at Thanksgiving Point.

Hannah and Ariel.

Grammie and Princess Hannah

When going to a Princess Festival, you must get sprinkled with Fairy Dust.

And of course don't forget to get your nails painted.

Grammie said that Hannah had to put her face in everyone of these wood cutouts of Princesses. Here is a few pictures of Hannah being different characters. I can definitely tell she was loving every minute of it.



Tinkerbell HannahBelle asked Hannah to help her find the Beast. Hannah was all over this task.



They found him. Hannah told me she likes the movie Beast better than the human Beast. She said he was kind of scary looking. Whatever do you mean Han??? He looks like a teddy bear, a scary teddy bear.

Hannah said this was her favorite Fairy at the Festival.

Hannah with the Princess and the Pea. Hannah informed me that she felt the pea. Just in case you were all wondering.

Waiting for the Cinderella play to start.

Cinderella doing her chores.

Cinderella asked the little princesses if they would come help her, of course they were happy to help. I wish Hannah was that quick to jump and clean her room.



The step sisters trying on the glass slipper.

Hannah said, "This is the handsome Prince with Cinderella. They are in love."

Hannah with Rapunzel. Besides Belle is her favorite Princess.

Rapunzel Hannah. Love this pic!





Hannah with Sleeping Beauty

Hannah is drawing a picture for the troops over seas.

Here is her picture. It says, "Dear American Hero, Thank you so much for all the hard work you do to keep me and my family safe. You are a hero to me!" She drew a picture of our family.

Here she is with Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen

Lookin' spectacular girlie!

Princess Hannah had an enchanting time at the Princess Festival. She loved spending one on one time with Grammie. She calls it, "Gull Time." Yep, she is still working on saying those "r's" She loves to have Girl Time and doing anything Princess related. She is still talking about how much fun her and Grammie had. This blondie is a true Princess.
