Winter is here.....

We had our first "real" snow of the season today. It still hasn't stuck to the ground but it was so pretty....it looked like a winter wonder land falling from the sky. I, of course, was happy to be watching this from the comfort of my nice warm condo!!

Magen and Peter Visit

Magen and Peter came to town for a wedding and while they were here we were able to find some time to get together. It was so fun to see them and their little ones.

Remembering the 1 year anniversary

October 28th was the one year anniversary of Michael's passing. It's hard to believe that it has been a year since I have seen, spoke to or hugged my brother. The year has had many ups and downs but I take comfort in knowing that Michael is around me all the time and watching over me.

To honor and remember the one year anniversary I put together a momento that I sent out to many friends and family. I had bracelets made for all to wear as they choose. I wear my bracelet everyday and it makes me smile when I look down at it.....

(Gone, but not FORGOTTEN)

With the help of my friend Kim, I made a memory card to go along with the bracelets. Awhile back I found a great poem that I really liked so I included the poem on the card along with some pictures of Michael.....

It warms my heart to hear that some people are wearing their bracelets everyday and I know that Michael is looking down and smiling!!!
