Funny story... we had decided to homeschool this year. In fact, all the curriculum I planned to purchase (and spent many hours researching) is still in my cart on Amazon. We weren't sure we would find a house in time for her to start school and we didn't want her to change schools a month or two into the year. However, our house in Dayton went under contract and we managed to snag a house in Franklin (LOVE Franklin, quaint town south of Nashville). We put a contract on the house July 27th. Olivia had already mentioned not having any friends if we homeschool, so when we found a house, she asked "Can I go to school, now?" Ha! So much for my plans. Luckily, we are allowed to bring her to school until we move into the house (scheduled for August 26th). Unfortunately, it takes us about an hour to get there in the morning, since we have to drive right through rush hour traffic. Oh, well. She seemed to like it!
We traveled to the tri-cities to celebrate her birthday last weekend. Her first party was at Mamaw and Papaw's:
Aunt Kristie got her a slip and slide:
Paige was excited about the slip and slide:
Brett and Rachel were kind enough to let us use their house for her 2nd party!
A party isn't complete without some dress up clothes:
Presents!
Thank you to everyone that helped her celebrate!
She had half a day of school today, so when Paige and I picked her up, we took her to Build -a - Bear and for a pedicure (her choice):
Daddy met us at Rainforest Café when he got off work. When we were in Houston in March we ate at a Rainforest Café. Olivia noticed that if you eat there on your birthday, you get a cupcake and the servers sing to you. She didn't forget!
