The Oler Family: Easter!

Easter!

This year for Easter Felicia and Chavonne talked me into making the same skirts for my girls as they were planning to do for their daughters. Easy for them to say, they each have only one daughter... I have three.
(I know, no sympathy from mother)
They turned out so cute and I love them.
They were very time consuming with all those ruffles.
But in all fairness they are probably looking into putting my name as "see also" after the definition of procrastination.

Like I said though, I love them.

The Easter bunny waited til after church and naps to come by with baskets and to hide eggs.

I think the Easter bunny did a great job keeping things toddler appropriate, and went with mostly toys and very little candy.

Uncle Kirk joined us for the festivities. It was so fun to see how excited Eve and Adi got while hunting for Easter eggs.

The Story

We found out we were expecting our first mid-March 2008, our little bundle of joy would arrive sometime early November. June rolled around, we went to find out if it was a boy or a girl. Much to our excitement, it was a girl, much to our surprise, she had a sister in there too. We were so excited, and shocked at the same time. And because there were 2 the doctor moved my due date up to early October. Mid-September comes up and I'm sent to the hospital, I'm in labor. Evelyn Mae and Adia Ashley were born the morning of September 23rd.

The Story Take III

We found out we were expecting #4 in early June, not quite ready to share the news we kept our excitement to ourselves for a while. We told the kids but were fairly certain they had forgotten when Neil's whole family came, visited, and left without a word about our bun in the oven. A couple of weeks later, we had some family over for a 4th of July BBQ. Evelyn was admiring Chavonne's 5 month old Emmett and decided to announce "Angelica has a baby in her belly!" Everybody was excited and I was very surprised since I had decided my kids had forgotten. I moving into the 2nd trimester now, and looking forward to finding out the gender of our sweet little love bun.

Ghost In A Jar

Neil sings and plays guitar in a band called Ghost In A Jar. With his friends Tom at the drums, and Peter playing the bass, they started playing together in April of 2006. They've played at a lot of different places including Starry Night, Muse, and The Loft at Ozz in Provo, Comedy Circuit in Midvale, and at various other places and events. Its been fun to listen to them progress and work on writing their songs and having such a great time together. Sadly in April of 2011 they went their separate ways.
