Spring Break

For spring break Jared and I went to Michigan for a few days to check out his new school and to find an apartment. It was fun to get away and have a break from the normal everyday life, but at the same time scary because looking for an apartment means we are getting closer to the big moving day! :-( But I am going to try really hard to be excited for this big adventure in our life and not be scared (ya right)!

Jared had a lot of fun checking out his new school and walking around the huge campus! It's such a beautiful school I don't think I've ever seen soO many trees.
And while we were there we did find an apartment YAY! One less thing to worry about.
We also got to visit with Steve and Jenni, it was so nice to see two familiar faces! Thanks for hanging out with us!

On our last day we went to the Henry Ford Museum. It was actually a lot more fun and interesting then I thought it would be. I was actually sad when we had to leave because there was still so much more to see.
This was President Ronald Reagan's Limo. They had a few different cars from past President's there.

Jared with some car?

And this is the bus that the famous Rosa Parks was riding when she was arrested for not giving up her seat.
And here is Jared sitting in the actual seat she wouldn't give up. Isn't that soO cool?!

Over all Jared and I had a great spring break!!!

Olivia's Dress

I Just want to take a moment and say that I am so proud of myself for sewing this dress almost all by myself and FINISHING IT! Because I always start crafts and never finish them.
I made this little dress for Olivia with the help of my mom, I did pretty much all of the cutting and sewing by myself and my mom helped me put it all together.
If you look really close you can see the little brown polka dots on the baby blue fabric. Me, Olivia and my mom (my mom wasn't very excited to take this picture, because she didn't have any make-up on but she was a good sport for me).

Okay, so I think I have come to the conclusion that I am the WORST blogger ever! I do a horrible job at keeping my blog up to date and I don't know why I guess I'm just a lazy blogger, because I'm always taking pictures and planing on posting them and never do. People probably get sick of looking at our blog and never seeing updates. Oh well, I'll try to do better, maybe when I'm in Michigan and am bored to pieces because we don't have family and friends (except for Steve and Jenni, but that's still two hours away) around I'll be better at posting regularly.

But anyways here are a few pictures of Olivia, she's getting so big and is soO much fun and doing new things everyday!

Olivia is always wanting to help make dinner. Now if I could only teach her how to wash dishes. Any suggestions on how I should teach her? :)


The other day Olivia's Granny Hiatt had a Swanki Hat party that was so much fun and Olivia decided that this was her favorite hat.

I thought this picture was just too funny! I guess she was feeling a little full. And don't you love her crazy hair?!
