Weekend getaway

We snuck away for a quick weekend trip to Newport, Ky with our bestest friends! We got a hotel and enjoyed the swimming pool and free breakfast and spent Saturday at the Newport Aquarium. We had such a great time! (We need to do it again Palmers!)Olive wasent sure about the swimming pool right away. She alternated between smiles and whimpers for the first five minutes but then totally loved it!

My first Swim!

i love my papa!

Dylann and Olive had matching jammies on! They thought it was great! Such sweet girls!

Saturday we headed to the Aquarium. Olive was mesmerized!

Check out this ugly creature. I really have something against spiders so this spider crab really creeped me out. Ugh!

I loved this Starfish just chillin on the glass!

We were attacked by a gigantic Octopus!

They had these really neat tunnels that went right through the aquarium!

There was an amazing display of jellyfish-They are so beautiful!

This Great White Shark swam just a few feet above us in a tunnel! Wow!

With my papa's help, I'm as big as this shark!

Overlooking the Ohio river!

We had such a great time! Every moment of joy and discovery little Olive experiences brings me to my knees in gratitude. I am so grateful I get to be a part of her growth and learning. I am so extremely blessed. Such an awesome and wonderful husband and an amazing and beautiful daughter of my heavenly father both sent to me...

wow. that's just about all I can say. wow.

P.S. Check out this awesome wreath I made with some crafty friends out of paper bags! Its fun to get your craft on...and very therapeutic too!
