Passover Seder No. 2

This is the first year of my life that I have ever had a second Seder. This was also the first Seder that was hosted in the Olshane home, and I have to say it was so special to be a part of it. The whole night was just lovely. We did a seder, made all of the food from scratch, and had a long fun dinner as a family. I absolutely can't wait to make this a family tradition year after year. It truly is now one of my favorite holiday memories of all time!

Color Me Mine

Adam, Kelly, Jayden and I went to paint ceramics together on Friday afternoon. And I can honestly say I laughed so hard that I nearly peed my pants. Adam painted the eyelashes on tinkerbell, yes, you read that right, Adam, not the 7 year old did that. She is now Tammy Faye Tinker Bell. Either that or she married Bobby Brown. We had a GREAT time, and I cant wait to see how everything turned out glazed!

 

 

 

 

Just The Girls!

Annie got to meet her girl cousins this weekend. I am sure in the future all the girls are going to have a blast together. In these pics we have Jayden (7), Ainsleigh (3 next month) and Annie. Three sweeter girls I have never seen!

 

 

 

 

Gramps and Baba!

Annie met her Gramps, not to be confused with her Grumps, this week. It was a great moment to have all 4 generations of the family together for the first time. Annie will be too little to remember this, but I have to say, it did bring a few tears to my eye.

 

 

 

 

Grammy Wendy & Her Girl

When we were in Fresno we took some pictures of Grammy and her little lovey. I think they look alike...what do you think?

 

 

 

 

Lions and Tigers and Bears ... OH MY

Today we took Annie to a very special place to me, the Fresno Zoo. As a kid I went there just about 2 times a week every week.

We had a wonderful day and I have to say I was very impressed with how far the Zoo has come recently, it was GREAT!



Annie wore her monkey outfit to the zoo!!


"Hey Daddy, Mom has some shoes that match those giraffes!"


Grammy and Grumps loved the zoo too! Grumps had some pink popcorn with my Mommy which is an old tradition!

The Orangutan really liked Annie's outfit, he said that the monkey on her shirt was a cousin of his...

Annie did not know what to make of the monkeys...the black ones swinging through the trees really held her attention.



"This zoo place is really interesting guys! Let's come back when I am big enough to touch the rays, and go to the petting zoo!"

Look Mom, No Hands!

This picture came out completely under exposed so I messed around with it a bit to try to see the look on her face, what I found made me laugh so hard!

 

Annie's First Trip To The Park

After we got back from Filoli Rupal and Anaya came over for a trip to the park. What goes better with a trip to the park than cupcakes and margaritas... Nothing! Adam and Anaya played on the swings while Rupal and I gossiped. The perfect Saturday!

Annie says, "Hey guys, where is my cupcake?!?!"

She Flys Through Air With The Greatest of Ease...

She is our little Annie on the tiny Trapeze!
