Easter part 3

Easter day was fun. I teach the CTR 5 class and the Easter lesson is one of my favorites. We started the day with our baskets.


I'm kicking myself for not getting Lucas a cute pair of Easter pj's but you live and you learn :)


Then we all got ready for church.


Then I made Easter dinner. My favorite part were the eggs idea I stole from pinterest.

Easter part 2

The annual Collins Easter egg hunt. Lucas is still a little young and enjoyed eating the basket the most...



Lucas loves hats so naturally I put him in them as often as possible.


Here is Lucas with all of his cousins on Garrett's side. He is the youngest until The end of August.

Easter part 1

Each holiday I've made a footprint of Lucas' foot and turned it into something... Yes I love his little baby feet. Here is his baby chick :)

well...

Okay So I have been soooo bad about blogging... and it's not just because we have a new policy at work that we can blog on the clock... Although sometimes I do worry when a policy comes out that hits close to home... I would never do it on work time just on breaks but in this day and age I am soooo not going to try to find gray areas to get around anything. Maybe I will get it on my iPhone. so I can sit on the couch and blog without having to sit at the computer. Also this blog is a bit deceiving... it says Garrett and Olivia... but it is 100 percent mine. He reads it but never writes so I may need to change the format up a bit. Well my newest project is turning the junk/craft/stash room into the baby's room. I am so excited to make the cutes nursery. I think that's what my blog will be about for the next 3 months... yep that's right 3 months (give or take a week) until we meet our little boy... oh the places I could go talking about that last sentence... but I think instead I will just go back to the couch to finish watching the Giants game with my hubby,dad, and doggy.

Guilty pleasures...

Okay so my phone contract expired like 2 months ago, so my phone was ready for an upgrade... well of course at the time my timing belt broke and water pump needed to be replaced and we had a pipe leak in the house... so needless to say I didn't do my upgrade.


Garrett decided for mothers day I was getting it... So I am now the proud owner of the iPhone 4! I love it but sometimes feel it is too much phone for me to handle. Luckily my brother-in-law Brad got it first and has helped me with some stuff.


Garrett on the other hand is turning 30 this Sunday!!! We are having a family get together (our first big thing at our house) which I am already prepared for our house to seem small with all 26 or so of our immediate family there... So for Garrett's birthday he's wanted a grill. We went to Lowe's and let him pick out any grill he wanted...

and this is the one he picked! he liked that it is both a gas and charcoal grill. My dad helped us go get it Monday night with his truck and in the rain :) gotta love dad's and all the stuff they are willing to help with.

Okay so I really need to upload pictures from my camera because there is seriously soooo much more going on but I like pictures :)


Update one me: Well I'm still addicted to fruits and veggies. This week it is sweet corn on the cob!  Still not showing to other people... Garrett and I can totally see the bump though. I love how our relationship has changed, and it just confirms even more that i chose the right man to spent eternity with. I feel great with the exception of being sleepy a ton!!! I sleep so well at night and could sleep all day! Garrett keeps telling me to call in sick and stay home but I'm saving up all my sick time for when the baby comes :) Our next appointment in June 2nd so we will know more then.
