Olivia's actual Birthday

Tonight was Olivia's actual Birthday. We celebrated at home. She opened some presents and had cupcakes. See a few pictures and a short video.

Olivia's Dance Recital Day

Today Olivia had 2 dance recitals. The first one was with her pre-school's Dancersize program. The kids all had fancy costumes and it was in a big auditorium up on a stage.

The second recital was with her Zenon Modern Dance class. This one was held downtown in a trendy cabaret. I think her favorite part was when we gave her flowers at the end of both recitals. She said "Are these just for me?"Picture with Ms. Britney, of course.Olivia did a great job and we were all so proud of her!

Trip to St. Louis - Vivian's 1st Birthday

We had a great time in St. Louis celebrating Vivian's 1st birthday!
