Tuesday and PiperYou might remember when I posted about our twin friend Tuesday. Well I'm sad to say that she lost her battle with cancer. I have been looking at Reid and Elsie since I got the news last Friday and thinking, what if that was us???? I don't know what I would do. There were at least 20 moms from our web group that flew out to Denver for the memorial/celebration on Saturday. It started at JK's home with a wagie ride(one of Tuesday's favorite things) to the park where the service was held. Then they were having music, food and a balloon release in her memory. For those of us who couldn't go, we were asked to join in wherever we were. Today we couldn't go for a wagon ride, it was a little too windy and cool, but just this past week we had a great sunny day and we went out. 
Here we are in our usual pattern. Elsie riding and Reid pulling.
Reid doesn't give up. He is one determined little boy.
We also decided to send off some balloons in Tuesday's honor. We had to get extra balloons so we still had some left in the house. I didn't want tears because we had sent our balloons away in the sky.
We were practicing holding on tight.
We made it out the front door.
Managed to pose for a picture.
And off they go. Almost missed this one.
And there is the other one, floating away.
We waited until after naps to do this. All I heard for the rest of the day was. Balloons, all gone, bye, bye, Tuesday, sky.

The kids are adorable and wholy cow you have a lot of snow!
I'm sure Tuesday is smiling down from heaven. What a wonderful celebration of her life.
I am so thankful for the connection that is made through blogging. Total strangers, yet we are all connected and share a common ground...our love for our families.
Thanks for visiting my blog!
Have a great day!

Beautiful job, Sheri! You were missed in CO, but I'm so glad you found a way to honor Tuesday at home.
So sweet. I love all the wagon rides and balloon releases around the country. You were missed Sheri.
What a beautiful post and such a lovely way to remember Tuesday. I just love that so many of us were able to be there and love just as much that those who weren't still felt like they were.
Fabulous Sheri. Love all those beautiful balloons for Tuesday. She would love them.
