We are doing good in the Olsen Household. The twins are 3 weeks and 2 days old now and are growing good and healthy. Paige's ultrasound came back normal, her hips are good, so that's nice for her. Last Saturday we finally put in our garden. (well, as in we I mean Russ with help from Makell and Mason). We planted tomatoes, peas, pumpkins, watermelon, cucumbers, and cantaloupe. Hopefully we'll get a few things to grow.
We had a good visit from some of our Nampa friends, the Hammonds on Wed. They were down for a trip to Temple Square and Lagoon and were nice enough to take some time to stop by for a visit. It was so much fun and I was very sad to see them leave. Lisa has been such a good friend. We had a lot of fun together up in Nampa, serving on the activity committee together in our ward, building our ward float for the Nampa parade, and we can't forget the early morning Black Friday shopping trip together to get started on Christmas shopping. She serves as the Relief Society President up there and does a great job.
The big kids have had a fun week spending time with cousins, thanks to my sisters in law Rebecca and Cyd, going to the treehouse museum in Ogden, having my parents come, my sister also came with her baby London and brought a slip n slide for my kids to keep them busy! Also, my visiting teacher, Jennifer asked if taking my kids to her house for a couple of hours this week would be better for me than a visit, so she took them today and kept them entertained for a few hours. And Russ's sister took Makell tonight to a barbeque, so it's been a really nice week with so many people helping out, taking the older kids so I can just concentrate on the babies and on getting some sleep!
I also gave Russ a haircut last night, we decided it was a good way to save some money, with gas prices so high! Russ was brave and let me give it a try- it turned out pretty good I think! So, anyway, here's some pictures of our past week.

What great pictures! I can't believe how big Mason is getting. We also planted a garden this week -- the kids are so excited, hopefully something grows. I can't wait to see you next month! Nampa just isn't the same without you!
