Weekend of Trick or Treating and Auntie Irene

Auntie Irene came in for a halloween visit this weekend. We had a great time carving pumpkins, trick or treating and yes going on my first haunted hay ride. The haunted hay ride though not too much fun!

Olivia made the paper today!!

Olivia made the local newspaper today. She is sitting in the corner of the picture. Our school started there new 4K program this year!! She is having such a great time!!!

3rd Day is the Charm

Well we finally did it!!! After some mass confusion between the bus company. The bus got here on time and we finally got the picture. This was actually our 4th day of school picture. Thats ok it makes Olivia's scrapbook a little more exciting when we look back in the years to come. Olivia loves school and her new daycare. She talks about her teachers all night long. Olivia also talks about Grandma too. My mom works at the school and she gets to see her everyday. My mom is just lovin it.

4K here we come

Yesterday we went to the first of many open houses at our school last night. Not only was Olivia nervous but so was Mommy and Daddy. We went and met her teacher, Mrs. Fisher. We are so lucky to have her. Mrs. Fisher has adopted internationally. So she knows excactly what we are going thru and what Olivia needs. We looked around her classroom which has so much to offer these 4 year olds. Then we went on the big yellow bus. Olivia loved the ride. Now Wednesday is the big day!!! We are all nervous but cannot wait for a new exciting adventure.

Summer Fun

The last couple of weekends have been fun filled with our friends. Pics are from the State Fair, swimming party last weekend in Brookfield WI, and Coolwaters this weekend. Our fun days are coming to a end because all these public pools are closing next weekend. You know when the pools close in Wisconsin that summer is coming to a end.

Let the Fairs begin!!!

Fair season has officially started here in the state of Wisconsin. Today we went to the Racine County fair. It was great all rides were just a dollar!! It was really nice to be able to ride some of these rides with Olivia too.

4th of July and Bristol Progress Days 2010

We had a great week!! Spending time with Oma. That is Normans Mom. She came to visit from Rhode Island for a few days to celebrate the 4th and just spending time with Olivia. We also went to a parade today. This is our annual tradition. This was our first event we did together when we first came home from China. So now we try to do it every year. This year was kind of humid and hot but we got thru it. As long as that candy was coming Olivia was luvin it. She also was having a ball with all her buddies from Maries house. That is where she goes for daycare. Every year we see a change in her especially at this parade. The first year she just sat in her stroller, the second year she finally would pick up candy half way thru the parade, and this year she loved being around her friends and getting candy and waving yes waving at all the people in the parade. It was a very good day and week sorry it has to end and get back to real life again.
