Aunt Mertha

Aunt Mertha (merissa) came for a visit during the manly manfest!!!! Atley and I were delighted to have her here for a week (and one day ;) ). We had sooooo much fun! We shopped, crafted, sewed, painted our toenails, (almost) got massages... and missed our husbands (a little). I would definitely recommend a woman's day to all those women out there.

Atley playing dress-up for Aunt Meriss. She LOVED Merissa... and would laugh and laugh at her. She warmed up to her really fast!

The two goofy sisters...

Atley's new sponge-bob jamas. I couldn't resist posting this pic. Haha.

So Meriss and I were out to lunch while Atley had a sitter. We went to the Garden Spot... a little salad and soup buffet. Anyway, while we got up for seconds (yes, we ate seconds), some guy behind me put his nasty soup bowl on my tray!!! So when we got back to our table, my tray was full of a nasty man's soup. Anyway, so this is my grossed out face. Merissa had a good laugh, needless to say.

Man Festers 2009

This year for the annual manly Olson manfest, the boyz went to hike Mt. Sneffels in southwest Colorado. Such cute boys. They spent a lot of the time touring the San Juan Mountains, the Colorado National Monument, and also hiked into the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. They saw lots in the little time they had together, and had lots of fun and created lots of memories. Looking forward to next year's manly manfester reunion. (maybe the wives can join in the fun next year) (wink wink)

From L to R: Cameron, Andy, Jeff, Tuna, and Ty.

Awww.... breathtaking isn't he??
