Sarah’s B-day Party

Last week, we went to visit our families for a few days.  We hadn’t been up there since Christmas and we wanted to be able to share Sarah’s birthday with them.

These are some of the decorations that my Aunt’s students made for Sarah’s Care Bear party!

  

  

We had a chicken tray, Rotel dip with chips, a fruit tray, and Hawaiian rolls for food.  After eating, we watched Sarah open her presents.

She had so much fun and acted like she knew just what to do.  Oh, she didn’t want any help either which is a tough thing with so many brothers and a sister.

 

 

Here’s a picture of my sister, Kelly, with Emma.  We scheduled our trip to happen during the same time my sister came to visit because she is leaving for Uganda in June for a year.

Rob and Asa

This is Pastor Rusty and his wife, Nancy.  He is the pastor at the church my mom, aunt, and uncle attend.  We prayed for many years to bring a pastor who would preached truth unashamedly to this area.  The Lord didn’t just bring him to this area but to my families’ church.  What an awesome God we serve!!!

Here’s the birthday girl blowing out her candles on her cake.  Yes, she blew them out all by herself.  I think she might be the only one of our children who did this at age 2.

While we were there visiting, my aunt, mom, uncle, and sister all helped out to watch the kids for Rob and I to go out one night for our anniversary that was earlier in the week.  We had a very nice evening.  This is not something that happens very often for the two of us but we definitely enjoyed it.
