The day is here, and on it's way out already!
Yesterday was a GREAT day for Charli, and for us!! Charli's party got started early and kept going until about 7:00 or even later maybe!! It was a great day for us, and I hope for everyone else! Almost everyone was able to attend: Grandma & Grandpa Borg, Grandma & Grandpa Preister, Grandma Deb, Vicki, Arron, Bryant, Derek, Colton, Rachelle, Shawn, Ryen, Macey, Amanda, Brad, Great-Grandma Preister, and Jacky! I hope I didn't miss anyone! It was HOTTT out side, but with the GREAT help from Brad and Amanda we had nice shade and the kids even got to play in the water!!
Charli had a great time with her cousins, and I think really understood that the party was for her!!
This birthday was big because it was #2! But, more importantly it means that she has had more days NOT fighting cancer than she has fighting cancer! Many of you know that "6 years old" is the magic number for the most part (5 years post treatment), but in my eyes every birthday is and WILL be a milestone for this little girl. Our lives have been turned upside down, sideways, inside out and backwards in the past two years....but more than that they have been catapulted forward and we wouldn't want it any other way! We have an amazing little girl on our hands, and we are ready to see what God is going to put in front of her!!
Thanks to everyone who sent birthday wishes and the continued prayer for her. Charli is a big girl now!!!!

OMG!!! I am sooo ashamed that I never came by to post a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to little Miss Charli!! She has gotten so big and she is turning out to be sooooo beautiful!!! I think I told you Happy Birthday to Charli through email, but I should have came here as well to post my happy birthday wishes. She has the BEST parents in the world and the best family praying for her constantly. Have a wonderful week!
