To say we miss Dad, would be an understatement, but remembering him, cherishing all our memories kept snug in our hearts & celebrating all he has done for us was more than healing, it was perfect.
It's funny, I don't remember really crying on the day of Dad's funeral...being overwhelmed by the incredible support, love & friendship...yes, I remember that, but I don't remember crying or really being sad. It was most definately a day filled with emotion; emotion that brings a catalyst of memories & stories, emotion that seared with all the good & all the light that I grew up with ... and will always have with me thanks to my Father.
The day we celebrated him was indeed perfect, overwhelming & filled with emotion. It was a day that I will never forget & I know he won't either.
I set up this blog with the intent to keep everyone 'updated' on our family & all that we have going on in our busy lives!....and yet, it hasn't exactly been a quick little project!
Needless to say, when Kennedy checked the mail today & came blasting into the back yard as I was up to my eyeballs in soil & weeds, with a package from my cousin Lana...I "KNEW" the contents would inspire me to do an update on our little site.
Lana truly captured the day. There are pictures of everyone, and take note, no tears. So ... thank you Lana for the amazing pictures that I can only say are perfect...overwhelming & filled with beautiful emotion....
Well....going to the Dentist is not 'my' favorite thing in the world, but I learned a thing or two about bravery from my 7 year old last night!
entist who loves kids & makes sure that everything is as easy as possible ... from sunglasses for my extremely light sensitive red-head....to a picture frenzy that made "Mom" feel a little more at ease!
