V’s 5th birthday party

V wanted The Little Mermaid for her party theme. 🙂  Last year she would hardly talk to me about what kind of party she wanted. I was super happy to be able to throw a party for her. Her new family came and that was awesome!IMG_9455 IMG_9458 IMG_9460 IMG_9462 IMG_9465 IMG_9508

This kid was swimming in gifts. See what I did there? 😉IMG_9523

She was pretty excited to be the first one to hit he pinata.IMG_9547 IMG_9553

After the pinata we packed up kids for their first weekend at their new house.IMG_9558

Cousins stayed to play which was so nice.IMG_9564 IMG_9567 IMG_9572

Rebekah was raking me up.IMG_9573 IMG_9576The kiddos all played outside. I’m loving the cafe lights on the play place.

Day 365 and V’s turns 5!

To celebrate surviving a whole yer as a foster family AND V birthday we biked the kiddos over to sonic for dessert.

It’s been the longest and fasted year ever. It’s crazy to think that Monkey girl was only 4 weeks old, R was a scared angry 14 month old, and V was a lost little 4 year old. They have all grown SO SO much.

We are sure going to miss them when they move to their new family.

Karate 1sts

Kaylee lives in the dark place of worst case scenario. She gets it from me. It’s not great.

All summer long she was making comments like, “If a kidnapper trys to take me I’m going to….” She had all sorts of game plans. IMG_9375

I finally asked her if she would like to take karate class this year. Her answer, “Ya. I think that would be best.” I had to bit my tounge to keep from laughing. But her face and tone… so funny. She hasn’t mentioned being kidnapped since she started karate class.IMG_9376 IMG_9377 IMG_9382Regan is just super excited that he is a couple of levels ahead of her. Not competitive at all that one…..
