Kari's 5th Birthday Party

I apologize for being so late doing this post!!  Thank you so much for all the birthday wishes to Kari.  We read each one together and she loved it! 


The party went great!  Aside from all the flies that wouldn't get away from the food, of course.  I will say that this will probably be the last party I ever do with the food outside.  :)  Heather, you did an AWESOME job on the cake and the watermelon.  Those were my favorite decorations. 


A big thank you to Sarah, Heather, Laura and whoever else helped me decorate and make food!  I couldn't have done it without you. 

I was proud of both Kari and Malachi for their behaviour during the party. With each and every gift that Kari opened, she turned to thank the person that got it for her and to tell them how much she loved it. Malachi received some gifts too and he did the same thing!  I was so proud of my babies!



I have quite a few pictures left to post of the part but for some reason, Blogger is having issues.  So, there will be more party pictures later! 

For those of you that are interested in joining us for the Light the Night Walk on September 22nd, please email me at kariandmalachi@live.com.  We are getting shirt orders together and I need a count of who needs a Team Kari shirt! 

Thank you for your continued support and prayers!  We love you!

Happy 5th Birthday, Kari!

Happy Birthday, my sweet angel! I can't even express how much I love you!


You've come so far in this past year.  You've made me so proud to be called your Mommy!


I love listening to you pray.  Listening to you sing.  Listening to you talk about Bible stories and retelling them the way your own imagination remembers.  I love listening to you interact with your brother...interacting is a word with many meanings these days.  :)





I love how you love your family...each and every member, you LOVE. 


God has a great plan for your life, Kari!  I can't wait to see where He leads you. :) 



I love you with all my heart!

Love,

Mommy
