Our Life Last Week

Sending hugs to you - our family and friends!

The Week of Dec 25 - 31

Happy New Year
I've started a new project documenting each week!  Hopefully, I can keep it up throughout 2010.  I don't want to forget a thing that my silly little boy does :)
Here is our week last week from Christmas through New Year's.

While we were driving home from LegoLand, I was cleaning up files on my hard drive and found this video of Tys when he was little!

We've watched this video like a million times!  Tys is sooooo SICK of it :)

In the Wilderness Freebies!

This week, I've been scrappin' some camping and outdoor pages.

Here's my cute son with marshmallow mouth!  He LOVES camping for the marshmallows!!

Made using Campfire Song by Colie's Corner

And this year, we took our son to Yellowstone for the first time!  He loved it.

At the Bear and Wolf Discovery Center, he got to hide the bears' food throughout their enclosure.

Made using Kellybell's newest kit In the Wilderness!

My Favorite Moment in Disneyland

For my favorite moment in Disneyland, I chose to scrap a photo of my son and I that our good friends took of us in 2006.  It's just a random photo, you can't even see any part of Disneyland really.  But it has come to be my most cherished photo taken there.  It's my son giving me a big smooch :)  It was a hard time for me - Chloee had just died about 3 months earlier.  This picture reminds me of why I am still alive today.  It is because of my son and that I love him just as much as I loved my girls.  So I choose to live even though a part of me has died each time my daughters died.  And as he gets older, it seems like the kisses get a little shorter and less frequent.  So I cherish them even more!

These pages were made using Kellybell's kit Where it All Began. 

Happy Birthday in Heaven Angel Chloee

It's Chloee's 5th Birthday today.

Happy Birthday in Heaven Baby Girl!  I love you and I miss you every second.  I just want you here with us...  I want to know what you are like at 5 years old.

This year, we got a princess birthday cake with a frame on top and took it to her grave to have her balloon release and birthday memorial.  We did a nail polish drive for Utah Share - an organization who helps families whose babies have died.  They give the nail polish so that parents can paint their baby's nails as a final gesture of love and to lighten the color post-mortem.  We collected a whole bunch of them that will go to help other grieving families :)

I spent the day enjoying my living son and making a digital scrapbooking kit in memory of my little princess!

It's called Princess Chloee and here it is with the page I did for her Princess birthday cake:

  

We Love you Chloee!!!
