Alex gets Baptized!!


Sara's Balloons
























































On July 27th, we as a family, get balloons, write notes on them, and then let them go. We do this every year. We have the last 2 years.  It's been a great way for us to heal after my sister Sara passed away.

Sara passed away unexpectedly on July 27th, two years ago. It was a blow to all of my family, including my own little family.  We write a note to Sara on our balloons, shed a tear, and let them go.

Just like we have to let go of our pain. We visit it each year because we still miss her. But, the holes in our heart are getting smaller each year. We still long to have her here with us, but it's getting easier to celebrate her life and not be so angry.

We love you Sara and miss you all the time.

We hope you liked your balloons.
