The whoosh
The giggle
The pattering
The reach

I am playing catch up... These pictures were taken November 4th, 2008.Rebekah and Lily are writing letters to their daddy to hook onto balloons to send into the air.
Lily is putting stickers on the note.
Rebekah looking at stickers.
Still working on their letters. They took a long time, wanting to make them just perfect. :-)
Lily making a face and she chooses a Pikachu sticker.
Rebekah looking over her note to Adam.
Lily and Rebekah with the balloons. If you will notice, there are a LOT of balloons. Originally we were only getting one balloon each to tie our letters too, but we used full sized paper and with the amount of stickers, the balloons just sank to the ground. So we bought a bunch more balloons.
Lily is pointing to the purple balloon she picked for daddy (look at the previous picture to see it). Rebekah chose the purple Happy Birthday balloon. And yes, that is a Happy Valentine's Day balloon you see. I picked that one out because Adam and I were married on Valentine's Day.
Me, Lily, and Rebekah all getting ready to release the balloons.
The girls kissing the balloons they chose specifically for their daddy. That way they could send him their kisses too.
The girls getting ready to let the balloons go.
The balloons on their way up, up, up and away....
When we were at the store (Robert's Crafts) I let the girls pick out one small present for themselves in honor of their daddy's birthday. They chose rabbit skin/fur. (yes, it is real)
Lily and Rebekah being silly and wearing the fur on their heads.
Over all, the day went really well. I am glad we did the balloon thing. I copied our letters before we released them but I don't feel like posting there here. But I kept the copies for posterity.
Happy Birthday Adam
Today would have been Adam's 33rd birthday. I can hardly believe that he has missed 6 of his birthdays. I am going to buy 3 purple balloons and the girls and I are going to write messages and send them up to heaven.
