Warning: This post has A LOT of pictures. It is probably the longest post I've ever done!
We had Olivia's birthday party on Saturday. She wore these Minnie ears to go with the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme!
First she had to get them back from Howie!
As you can see, she was VERY excited!
We had the party at the park behind our house. The weather was perfect, which was great because it rained the day before and the day after. So many of our friends and family came, making the day extra special!
Olivia and Jane
Alison and Garrett meeting Tami and Niles
Elisabeth and Kerri
Jen and Lily
Charlotte and Grandma Laurie
Grandma Judy and Olivia
Katherine (and Ryan and Mary's hands)
Uncle Jessie
Mary and the Catalan girls
Pay and Ryan
Olivia, Naomi, and Kaori
Gaylene and Charlotte
Grandma Judy, Grandma Laurie, and Aunt Tami
We had yummy snacks and the kids played at the park while the adults visited with one another.
Kaori (Olivia's BFF!)
Naomi and Olivia went down the slide together so many times!
Papa Brian and Aunt Tami
Erik and Gaylene
Olivia had very specific instructions for her party. She did not want any cupcakes, ONLY cookies. When we were packing everything up to go to the park, she kept asking for a cookie, but we told her that she couldn't have one until after we sang Happy Birthday. She started singing and put her hand out. It was cute, but it didn't work, she had to wait just like the rest of us!
That yellow one was a little stubborn!
Olivia knows what the people want - the cookies were a big hit!
After cookies, she opened her presents. She got so much great stuff!
A dress from Aunt Tami and Aunt Janis
Aunt Amanda sent this book that she got signed by Jane Goodall!
Sand toys from the Fardaneshes
And Mary made this hooded bath towel in Olivia's favorite color!
Charlotte got her some jewelry
A puzzle and a bowling set from Jane and Adrienne
A Braves hat from Howie
It even has Mickey on it!
Ann brought her The LadyBug Game and a matching pillow pet!
A jewelry box from Papa and Grandma
Bryan and Cris got her a beach towel, jammies, and sunglasses, all with Minnie on them!
Uncle Jessie brought a USA puzzle and a doll house!
She also got a play dough tool set, a princess dress, more puzzles and books, a watch, 2 strawberry shortcake cars, a bubble blower, some clothes, and a purse! She is one lucky girl!
After presents, she gave everyone Thank You hugs. It was the cutest thing!
Olivia told me it was the best party EVER! She had such a great day and so did we. We are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives.
