Colbie's yearly heart exam

We took Colbie the day before her birthday to Children's Hospital for her annual check up with her heart. They told us that everything is the same as last year and she is good for another year, which we are so happy to hear. We just pray that her heart will last until she is at least 7 years old. She has a "leak" in her heart and will eventually have to have an artificial valve put in. But, we hope that she can make it until she is 7 because then they won't have to open her chest back up, they can go in through a catheter. AMAZING!! So pray for her that she makes it until she is 7!

Happy 2nd birthday to Colbie!

Colbie woke up on her birthday and we let her open the presents from us and the ones that came in the mail. Justin's mom and dad came out to visit too and they made it for Colbie's second birthday and party. Thank you grandma Debi & Papa Dave for the Minnie Mouse outfit, she loves it and looks so cute in it as you can see.
Colbie's second birthday was a Minnie Mouse party because she just loves Minnie Mouse! I was so happy with how everything turned out. Colbie and I weren't feeling 100%, but we made it through and managed to have a fun time. We had a HUGE turnout!! Wow she is so loved!



We got to open some fun presents, she got a ton of stuff! What a lucky 2 year old!

Justin's mom and I made the pillowcase dresses (mostly her, but I learned how easy they are to make)! They turned out so cute!
What a sweet girl we have! We love you Colbie Alexis, Happy 2nd birthday!

Happy Easter!!

We had a beautiful Easter day with great friends! We started the day with church, then went to our dear friends Kelly and Randy's parents for lunch. The girls had so much fun. There was an egg hunt, bounce house, lots of running and playing. We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends in our life! Thank you to Kelly & Randy for including us since we don't have family here.




The Easter bunny came and brought the girls some fun things!
We went to our friends house before Easter and decorated some eggs with them! So fun!

Wild Animal Park

Mom and I took the girls to the Wild Animal Park now known as the Safari Park. It was a lot of fun to see the animals and to get out of the house for a bit. They were walking a cheetah on a leash...beautiful!

We had a nice picnic lunch before heading home.

Happy 1st birthday Charlie!!

Palm Sunday

At my mom's church on Sunday we had a wonderful breakfast and parade for palm Sunday. The girls got to dress up and walk with Pastor Tom and a donkey rein-acting what happened on Palm Sunday. What a fun day!
