A memorial day to remember

So on memorial day we got home from camping, and went to malia's grave to decorate it. It's hard to believe it has been 6 years since we had her. Some days are harder than others, but we are blessed to have her in our lives for eternity, and to teach our kids about her. We got some nice flowers from janet and ray, and am very grateful for them, and their strength. We stopped and visited blaze and mandee's grave on the way camping. It is hard to visit graves sometimes of those you love, because I just don't feel sometimes that's where they are, I mean sure their bodies are, but their little spirits have so much more to do and so many other places to be. In that brief moment though that we are their I do think she is too. Even just for a second. I am grateful to have her in our family and to feel her around often. I am grateful to have memorial day to remember those who we love and have lost- Her headstone- all decorated up!

This is blaze's headstone- they just got it placed, and it looks so nice-

and here is the kids with aunt mandee's headstone- they couldn't be happier!
