Pretty little lady with her chosen pink heart birthday cake with sprinkles.Here she is – the newly turned 3 year old, miss Olivia Michele Parker. She had a great and fun day and enjoyed her moments in the spotlight. Mason, Lex, and Lily were sure to remind her of what a special day it was because of her. We sure love her.
Our family went on a bike ride up Summer’s Hill (8.5 miles round trip). Ollie liked riding in the bike trailer with JT and Lex. Mason’s bike tire went flat after the first 1/2 mile and Alexis was happy to lend hers to Mason. Stephen pushed us forward through the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. I was happy to catch up with Mason and join him at the top. Once we were all there we stopped for a family photo in the field of wheat…the clouds were such a beautiful contrast with the wheat.
Olivia also got to go get a happy meal from McDonalds for lunch with her dad and Mason. She was hoping for a cute Polly Pocket, but when they got there they found that they only had Star Wars toys.
Later, we invited friends and family over to help us celebrate with a hot dog roast and cotton candy. Olivia loved all of the cards and gifts she received – thank you for thinking of and loving her!
Three years can go by so quickly. It is fun to think back on all of the joyful and fun times that Olivia has brought to our family. She is one special lady!
 This is Olivia’s cute little friend, Ellie. |
 Stephen had her sit in the tractor bucket to blow out her candles. |
 Having her cake and eating it too. |
 This here my friends, is a crazy, pregnant, canning queen! She amazes me. |
 Let the cotton candy begin. |
 Tanner Puzey grew a quick beard for the party…then he got stung 4 times by some wasps. ouch. |
 Ashlyn (Tanner’s sister) also got a sting. Yikes. |
 Little Brooke got one too – right by her eye. Double yeowee. Olivia was so excited to have her friends, Brookey and Ellie, come to her party. |
 Love this picture of Kate. |
 Love in my tummy… |
