Memorial

As many of you know, we lost Bryan's mother on March 31st. We received this beautiful palm from some of Bryan's coworkers at the Memorial Service and decided to plant it in the backyard as a dedication to Rachel.
Rachel always had a green thumb and had such beautiful plants. So, we brought a few home with us to enjoy and remind us of her. We planted this one in a pot and keep it on the front porch. The blue pot has some Hen & Chicks that Rachel had. Aren't they cute!


These are some flowers we already had in the front flowerbed. Our new plants really add more beauty to the front yard.
Here is a close-up of the Hen & Chicks.


The past 14 months have been a difficult time for our family. The past few months have been especially hard. Yet as we look at the beautiful plants, and see Spring bloom, we can still feel Rachel's presence. And we look forward to the day we see her again in Heaven.
