Speaking of Remembering......

Eli and I took the kids and met some friends downtown for the Light the Night Walk put on by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We joined about 4,000 others and walked in memory of Matthew and for Steve as well as others who we continue to pray for. It was inspiring to see all the white balloons representing survivors and sad to see all the gold balloons which represented people taken by Leukemia and in general to see all the lives that have been touched in some way by these cancers (red balloons).

Matthew Tree

This fall has been awesome with a little bit of chill and lots of nice days. I was looking out the window the other day and noticed for the first time the brilliant red leaves from this Maple (I think it's a Maple) that sits on the back of our lot. It reminded me of Matthew and the tree that was planted in his memory back in Utah. It's good to remember.

Memorial Day has always meant another day for picnics and barbecues..... Not anymore. Now that little Matthew isn't here with us, this holiday has taken on a different meaning. We miss him and know that Mike and Connie miss him terribly. We love you Mike and Connie and think about and pray for you often.
