Halloween 2010

Olivia went "trick or treating" for her first time and loved it. Her Godfather, Dwayne Kouf, hand picked the costume. And Mommy tricked it out with tattoos and a bow in her hair. We had a great time and it was nice to see her enjoy it so much......but who does not enjoy the holidays.

The Best Day Ever!!!

The Nickelodeon Resort

We went on our first family vacation this past weekend to the Nickelodeon Resort in Orlando. Olivia's BFF is Sponge Bob so we thought it would be good times for her to hang with him in real life. Words cannot explain her excitement everytime she saw Sponge Bob or Dora the Explorer (her other BFF). She would dance, scream and shake her hands everytime she got to meet Sponge Bob of even just see a picture of him and it would be like she was meeting him for the first time....everytime. The smile on her face and thrill in her eyes was worth ever penny and we will definitely plan another trip up there if she and Sponge Bob remain best friends.

(I thought it looked cool in B&W)

Olivia hung out with Daddy and his training partners at the Power Performance Training compound this past weekend. The "compound" is nothing more than warehouse with thousands of pounds of weight and the basic equipment necessary for those who are on a quest to take their mental and physical strengths beyond what they ever imagined. It was great opportunity for Olivia to meet all of her uncles....these are the guys who will be hanging at my house on the day she wants to go on her first date. She really enjoyed it and was not intimadated with the loud music and the heavy weight being smashed around.....thats my girl.

A Trip to Visit Family in Ohio

Olivia doing her "shrug" and "cheeker" smile!

We went to Ohio last week to visit Laura's and my family. Laura's family live in the Painesville area and mine in Akron. Olivia spent alot of time with Laura's family playing outside and with her cousin Mitchell. She of course got crazy spoiled by her Nonna and Poppie.....which is awsome. She also visited my family for a couple days to hang with Nanna and Poppie. They had a party where other members of my family got an opportunity to meet Olivia. She had alot of fun playing with her cousins. We also celebrated Nonna's (Laura's mom) birthday a day early who just turned 32 years old ;) and Olivia got to spend quality time with her Uncles (Paul and John) and Aunts (Caroline and Meagan). It was a great trip and really nice to see everyone. Olivia had a blast which is all that matters in the end. Hope all of you enjoy the pictures.

I found a Buckeye Daddy!
