New pictures

So, I'm going to give this picture thing a shot.  I'll not be surprised if this doesn't work.  My computer and I...we don't get along so well. :-)

 

This is Ephram and me at his big sister's "stone." We always tell the kids we're going to the place where we remember Ava and see her stone.  This is Ephram's first experience with this. Last year he was too little to even get out of the car. This year he even got to sit in the grass!

 

Here is a pic of Ava's stone.  Notice the sticks in front of the stone.

 

 Here are all the goofy kids.  The picture quality is terrible. Not sure why.  Zoe looks like she has "buck" teeth.  Get it?Hahaha. One funny thing to note.  All the kids were gathered around the gravemarker and Ezekiel (4 years old with the tie-dye shirt) was crawling over the front of the stone.  You could see Jason get really uncomfortable with what Zeke was doing and start to get after him.  I laughed and said not to worry. If she were still here with us, he would be crawling all over her, beating her up, and we would just let it go.  I like that they crawl all over her stone.

 

This is the last pic.  Hopefully this blog doesn't take forever to load. This is right before we went out to eat with my parents for their 35th wedding anniversary. We had a great time and waaaay too much to eat. Isn't my husband a hottie?

Dear Shelly and your "hot hubby",
I loved seeing all the photos and, no, they didn't take forever to load. Like two seconds. And good job on doing it right!!!!

It is good to see some healing happening with regard to the loss of Ava. What a joy and blessing that you can mostly look back at that little time you had her with thankfulness and gratitude. It still hurts beyond words, but at least you're learning to move forward with your grief. And I don't say that in a trite way.

Happy Anniversary to JON AND JEAN!!!!!!!

LOVE AND HUGS,
Shar-

Love all the pics, Shellly. I thought about you guys on the 5th and had origianlly hoped that Josiah might be born that day (but was also glad not to wait that extra week or two, if you know what I mean.)

And, I think you and Josh both look pretty fabulous in the last photo - what a good looking couple!

Thank you for the beautiful pics Shelly. The Buck/Grate kiddos all look like such cuties. Love the pic of you and Josh too! I'll be thinking of you with your surgery. I hope you recover quickly! My mom mentioned yesterday that now she no longer has back aches or migraines like she used to. If you have either, perhaps they will go away as a bonus too?
