Today was a very busy, very full day! And, tons of fun :)

First up was a quick breakfast, then Olivia and I were off on an adventure. Her very first theater movie ever! We won some passes to a screening of "The Lorax" today, so we were meeting my friend Kelly from work, and her daughter, for the show. It was PACKED when we got there. I was really worried that we wouldn't get in, but it turns out they were showing it in two theaters, so that was good. The Lorax himself was even there, and Olivia ran right up to him to give him a BIG hug - of course, I didn't have my camera with me. It was super cute. Then, into the theater we went. We ended up in the front row, but it actually worked out, the girls could for sure see everything that way. And, it turned out the movie was in 3D, which I was not expecting. I was surprised, Olivia actually kept her glasses on the whole time. The movie was really good, super cute, and Olivia loved it. She didn't make a peep the whole movie, and stayed in her seat. YAY!

When we arrived home, Amelia had just gone down for her nap. Christian was off to hang out with a friend from work for a little while, and Olivia ate some lunch and went off for a nap. I did some cleaning up and was able to relax for a little while.

Next up, after naps, my friend Melissa came over with her husband and kids for a play date. We've been trying to arrange this FOREVER, so I was really excited to finally hang out with them. All of the kids played together so well. They got FULL use out of the play room and it was nice being able to catch up with her. Christian and her husband got along pretty well too, so I'm hoping this leads to many more play dates!

The girls went right off to bed after they left. They were both a little crabby today, pretty tired and had some runny noses going on. I'm really hoping they aren't getting anything too serious. NOT this again!

Here are some pictures from today. First, Christian and the girls, snoozing on the couch this morning. Next, Olivia excited to head off to her first movie, and rocking her 3D glasses, waiting for it to start. Finally, an exciting piece of mail. The lien release on the truck we paid off earlier this month. It felt great seeing that!
