Summer Fun

So the summer has come and almost gone and I havn't been posting, so here are a couple of recent happenings.

Naomi turned 3!!


When she saw a butterfly cake pan at the store, she decided that was what she wanted! So that was what she got...my decorating skills are a little lacking, but she loved it!! We had party with all of our wonderful family! Actually she got to have 2! We did one the day before her actual Birthday with the Floyd side, then as per Olsen tradition we celebrate everyone's Birthday for the month on the first Sunday of the month, all cousins, aunts, uncles, etc...come! Its a great tradition!


On her Birthday, we told her she could choose where she wanted to go for lunch, thinking that we were going to be eating at McDonald's, we braced ourselves. Then she announced she wanted to eat at RED LOBSTER!! Whahoo!! We were so happy!




She really just wants to watch the lobsters and get to touch one! She got her birthday wish!!



Travis took Swimming Lessons!
Now, normally this should be a regular summer event in a 5 year old's life, but for Trav, it was a major accomplishment! He had an "incident" a couple of years ago at the Water Park that was a little tramatizing so we had to take it slow! He did awesome and we got the perfect teacher. I was a little late in getting him talked into taking the lessons, so there weren't any opening until later in the summer where I wanted to take him. We decided to chance it at the local pool and it worked out great. He is excited to start the next session, but he keeps telling me he is already an "expert" at swimming so he doesn't need any more lessons!
