Olea's birthday

I am late on this post but I figured it needed to be posted and it took me a bit to get together the pictures. Olea celebrated her 4th birthday in June, here I am a month later, shows how busy life gets. So here's to my little 4 year old.

So from the pictures you may be thinking that I am the best mom ever, it was a rad birthday party. As much as I would like everyone to think that I am that nice of a mom... I'm not. I just have great in-laws. They totally made Olea's birthday party a fantastic adventure. The kids had a blast, so did the dads ;). Regrettably, I never backed up away from the party enough to get a picture of the whole set up, apparently it was quite the spectacle, I had questions about it from people who drove by for weeks after. It was a super fun day and after the party we had some of our friends stay for dinner along with the relatives who were staying with us. Grandma did her Cinderella dance with Olea for everyone.

I thought I would have a pretty good documentation of what Olea looks like in swim suit from birth to age four since she has a summer birthday and the water is always present at her birthday parties. However, she wasn't always in a swim suit. :)
