SUPERHERO OLIVIA









So Olivia danced at the Suns game tonight. They do it every year and this year the song was done with a superhero/villain theme. The two main dancers are the older girls that are in the pictures in the superhero outfits that match the little girls outfits. Then some of the older girls were villains but Eric didn't get pictures of them :). London and I went to dinner with Olivia and Eric before and then we dropped them off at the game. It is a really cute hip hop dance that they will be performing at competitions coming up so I am excited to see it all put together since I didn't get to go tonight. I love watching Olivia dance. She loves it and you can tell she loves it. Also, I think I enjoy it because I cannot dance - and that is putting it nicely. They look so cute in their superhero outfits! After they performed they all had tickets together and watched the first half of the game. It was a late game so they decided to bail at half time. Olivia had a fabulous night and this is the beginning of a lot of dance competition filled weekends - so here we go!

Good Job Olivia!


Christmas '05 - Olivia was 4. Amy's parents gave Olivia a bike. I thought teaching her to ride a bike without training wheels would be cake. We spent hours and hours wobbling through church parking lots and up and down streets and falling over - apparently Olivia has her mom's coordination. Olivia was embarrased she couldn't ride with her friends and I was dissapointed with my dad skills. The last thing I wanted was some high school boyfriend teaching my daughter how to ride. Well, as of this weekend, she can ride. No thanks to me - she just picked it up out of the blue. To celebrate, Amy took Olivia out this afternoon and bought her a blue Electra beach cruiser with a kick stand (that was a very important feature). Olivia feels soooo good about herself. Good Job Olivia!
