Ivy Joy's 3rd Birthday!!

Outside of the high temperatures,
It was the perfect day to celebrate being 3


Home from the hospital for less than 48 hours, our family had so much to celebrate. We were expecting to have been listed for a heart transplant by the time I made this post. But God is still working on this masterpiece and continues to surprise us with more time, more hope and more miracles!


The best brother in the world, our son Brady, was greatly missed at the party. He is severely allergic to horses.


 The mechanical swing was Lexi's favorite! 




 The sun was hard on Ivy but the love that surrounded her that day... it was magical!







 Every child on this play structure is from China!! 





 So many beautiful friends came to celebrate this special day with us!





I hope some day she will see the magnitude of joy and hope she has given to others! (I know, gray hairs and worry wrinkles too... but we won't tell her that part!)
Happy Birthday Baby Girl~ You are amazing!

  10. Happy Belated birthday to Miss Ivy Joy!

    As I scrolled through the pics, I laughed..I think we drive by that ranch/horse farm every day and right around your party we noticed the 2 little white horses w/pink manes and thought "wonder which little girl is special enough to get such fancy horses?!"...now we know who! :)
