A Celebration!

Our Tate Owen was forever ours on July 27th five years ago!

Our Eliza Claire was forever ours on July 14th six years ago!

We let them choose if they wanted to celebrate or not, and they chose YES!

A double celebration with Chop Chae, chocolate cupcakes, triple berry chocolate chip ice cream, and our favorite people!

It was PERFECT!

And dessert was YUMMY!!

Big family dessert prep looks like this!

During dessert Eliza hugged me and said “I couldn’t have a better family.”

CUE ALL THE TEARS.

Oh, how far they have come!!

After all that eating, we headed outside to enjoy a beautiful evening together!

It was one of those perfect temperature, slight breeze, can’t pull ourselves back inside kind of evenings!

Our simple celebration was SO perfect.

The best part about it was the opportunity it gave us to speak affirmation over Tate and Eliza, that evening, and for several days leading up to their celebration as we prepared for it.

As Grant prayed for the meal, he thank the Lord for bringing Tate and Eliza into our family and for how amazing it is to trust in God’s perfect plan for them both!

It was a beautiful, truth filled prayer – and those are the words we speak over them often!

Thank you, Heavenly Father, for our Tate Owen and Eliza Claire!

We ARE trusting You with their future and Your plans for them!!

We cannot wait to see how you continue to write their stories!!

Because You write the BEST stories!!

Happy, happy forever family day to our precious cherubs!!
