Graduation

After four long, horrible, hard years of blood, sweet and tears... no I'm totally joking. He did it, he graduated and is an official dentist. Good work Mark! Sadie and I are so proud of you. I actually started to tear up a bit when they announced Dr. Mark Olsen to come up and be hooded. At the ceremony Sadie saw her daddy walking down the aisle and started crying and reaching for him. It was so cute and immediately afterwards she clung on to him and wouldn't let go. She was truly proud of her daddy. We love you daddy!!
Thanks to Mom and Dad Olsen, Heidi, Jarom and baby James who all came out to support Mark on his big day of days.

The girls and the kids who helped their men get through school...

Senior Gala

Who even knows what a gala is? A party? A feast? A lame dance from some kid's iPod playlist? Turns out it is all three rolled into one.  Very fancy morsels, very fancy atmosphere, very fancy future dentists and their faculty. But it was a cool kind of kick-off to all the graduation festivities, and Ashley was simply fabulous. And the sushi was also fabulous.

It's always a jolly holiday with our friends.

Of course the girls took a billion pictures as usual. Barf.

Take 2!

For those who have not seen me, you may be surprised to find out that we are expecting another little girl on October 2nd!  We are announcing so late because we had a huge sting operation going down in surprising some family members and we pulled it off ever so smoothly. Mark's family came out to Virginia for graduation and were pleasantly surprised at their findings. We are so excited to have another little princess and we cant wait to meet her.
