Izzie's 1st Birthday


Happy 1st Birthday
Izzie Arlene Koehler


We celebrated Izzie's 1st Birthday over the weekend. It's hard to believe she is ONE already. We had some good friends over to celebrate with us which we are so thankful for. It's special occasion's like these that we hate living so far away from family. The party was lots of fun. We roasted hot dogs over the fire, watched the kids (including Zack) have a water balloon fight, and admired Izzie's attempt to eat the tissue paper.
It wouldn't be a party without the cake, so this time I chose to make a Carebear cake in the shape of the number one. I don't think Izzie cared much for the way it was decorated but she sure loved eating it.





















We love you Izzie and we are so blessed to have you be apart of our family. You are truly a CHILD OF GOD, and your sweet spirit has brought such a peaceful feeling to our home.
