Evie's 7th Birthday!



Evie's 7th Birthday Party
February 19th, 2011



Evie's 7th Birthday party was a magical event... About 14 or so girls, plus big sisters, baby sisters, and moms were decked out in their tea time finest to help celebrate this very special occasion. The air was fragrant of roses, and full of soft classical music...
The tables were laden with goodies such as tiny sandwiches, chocolate dipped strawberries, sweet breads, lemon cookies (thank you Kelly!), tiny sweet cookies drizzled in white chocolate (thank you Boyles!)... hmmm.

During our tea time, the girls got to read some special Bible verses chosen especially for young ladies (thank you Annabelle!)

dxAnd be waited on by no less than 7 waiters! And how handsome they are! (Thank you Colin, Christopher, David, Daniel, Ben, Josiah, and Isaac!)
Soon after, the girls listened to the book "The Princess and the Three Knights", by Karen Kingsbury. Such a sweet book!


We pray the girls captured the meaning of the story and realize how precious and beautiful they each are... daughters of the King... princesses of God!

As a surprise after the story, the girls got to go on their very own treasure hunt! After many silly clues, and running here and there, the final treasure was found... sweet little prayer journals with pencils.
The girls played on the new trampoline and in the tent (thank you Boyles!) then gathered around to sing happy Birthday...
And open gifts! (Thank you all!)
What a sweet time of fellowship and fun for the girls...


for babies... (Princess Sophia!)


and even moms!
