Ollie was out of school with a fever from an ear infection on a Friday, so Gran took her to Chick-Fil-A to cheer her up
Then later that weekend Grandpa came by to stay over for the night and help fix Daddy’s truck
Evie took Sully on his Sunday morning walk
Then it was time to replace an alternator. Evie helped Grandpa with his tools.
That week there was a pajama dress-up day at school
And of course Ollie likes to dress up all the time at home
We are so pround of our Ollie Bird, she went through the screening test for the gifted program
After the test we went to daycare to pick up Evie
Then it was road trip time! We passed by Nemo’s and she drove us to Houston
The girls were being very cute and asking if they could have happy meals
When their mean father didn’t buy them, one of the McDonald’s employees caught us on our way out and gave the girls 3 happy meal toys for free, thanks nice lady!
After a long day on the road the girls were pooped, and excited to see Honey and Granpda
On Saturday the girls got to wear their new matching dresses & shoes that Honey got them
We went to the Memorial City Mall, they have a two-story carousel
Evie got to take her first carousel ride
Ollie preferred riding in the carriage
They had these cool double strollers for rent
And a big playground to play in
Ollie found this red carpet photo-op when we were wandering around
They also had this awesome train ride that goes through the mall
They had so much fun looking out of the windows and waving at people
And we had to have one last carousel ride on our way out
Back at the house a little dance party got started
The weather was nice so we got to hang out outside for a while
Evie took her nice clothes off to enjoy some spaghetti
And Granpda (with Ollie’s help) got the BBQ pit ready to grill
Of course Evie wanted to help too
The food was fantastic!
That night Honey let Ollie watch TV in bed with her before bedtime
Then on Sunday it was time to head back home
The girls are now big fans of Buc-ee the Beaver
Another road trip stop at McDonald’s, and they turned up the cuteness level even higher with their matching outfits and had an employee bring them 3 more free happy meal toys. And not 5 minutes later another one brought them 2 more! Bringing their total haul to 8!
Sully was so happy to have the girls back home that night that he even danced with Ollie
That week Ernie and his little brother Jack came by to visit, Ollie got to hold baby Jack.
Catching Evie by surprise at daycare pickup
The night before Avengers: Endgame was released, Daddy and Ollie stayed up to watch Avengers: Infinity War. Ollie loved it and the whole next week would ask if she could watch her favorites, Hulk, Captain America, and Groot.

The next weekend was Festival International in Lafayette, and Gabby was performing with her new group, Les Filles de St. Martin.
Ollie went with Daddy to watch the show. Everybody was very impressed, the singing was outstanding and Gabby played guitar great!
While we were there Nemo took Ollie to get her face painted
There were a lot of choices but Ollie decided to go with a Tiger face
She was very good about staying still and keeping her eyes closed
It came out looking very cool!
Ollie was very excited to show everybody and would roar at random strangers the rest of the day
And if face paint wasn’t enough she even got a flower balloon
And she got to visit with this talented performer after the gig
This was one worn out festival girl
Wow!! What a month!! And 8 McDonald toys in 2 days! Very impressive!
