April 2019

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

IMG_5751

And of course Ollie likes to dress up all the time at home

IMG_5761

We are so pround of our Ollie Bird, she went through the screening test for the gifted program

IMG_5764

After the test we went to daycare to pick up Evie

IMG_5765

Then it was road trip time! We passed by Nemo’s and she drove us to Houston

IMG_5767

The girls were being very cute and asking if they could have happy meals

IMG_5773

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

IMG_5792

On Saturday the girls got to wear their new matching dresses & shoes that Honey got them

IMG_5814

We went to the Memorial City Mall, they have a two-story carousel

IMG_5816

Evie got to take her first carousel ride

IMG_5817

Ollie preferred riding in the carriage

IMG_5818

They had these cool double strollers for rent

IMG_5823

And a big playground to play in

IMG_5827

IMG_5831

Ollie found this red carpet photo-op when we were wandering around

IMG_5835

They also had this awesome train ride that goes through the mall

IMG_5839

They had so much fun looking out of the windows and waving at people

IMG_5840 IMG_5841 IMG_5842

And we had to have one last carousel ride on our way out

IMG_5824

Back at the house a little dance party got started

IMG_5875 IMG_5876

The weather was nice so we got to hang out outside for a while

IMG_5878

Evie took her nice clothes off to enjoy some spaghetti

IMG_5877

And Granpda (with Ollie’s help) got the BBQ pit ready to grill

IMG_5879

Of course Evie wanted to help too

IMG_5880

The food was fantastic!

IMG_5881

That night Honey let Ollie watch TV in bed with her before bedtime

IMG_5884

Then on Sunday it was time to head back home

IMG_5889

The girls are now big fans of Buc-ee the Beaver

IMG_5896

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!

IMG_5913

Sully was so happy to have the girls back home that night that he even danced with Ollie

IMG_5917

That week Ernie and his little brother Jack came by to visit, Ollie got to hold baby Jack.

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.

IMG_6174

Ollie went with Daddy to watch the show. Everybody was very impressed, the singing was outstanding and Gabby played guitar great!

IMG_6192

IMG_6194

While we were there Nemo took Ollie to get her face painted

IMG_6175

There were a lot of choices but Ollie decided to go with a Tiger face

IMG_6177

She was very good about staying still and keeping her eyes closed

IMG_6182 IMG_6185

It came out looking very cool!

IMG_6187

Ollie was very excited to show everybody and would roar at random strangers the rest of the day

IMG_6190

And if face paint wasn’t enough she even got a flower balloon

IMG_6200

And she got to visit with this talented performer after the gig

IMG_6207

This was one worn out festival girl
