Joe's Birthday!!!

   We had a get together to celebrate Joe's Birthday even though he is not here we sent him some balloons.  It is his first one since he went to heaven.  It was a really nice celebration and it was nice to be surrounded by family on an occasion that was both difficult and good.  I am thinking we will do it every year.

School Shopping and swimming

Well we went out of town school shopping and thought it would be nice to stay the night instead of coming home.  It was a very nice day and the kids did really good.

It was a nice way to relax as a family before school starts.  

Just really missing Joe.....

It has been really hard not to have Joseph around,  I feel like I lost my buddy.. and it hurts.   I can't wrap my head around the fact that he is really gone.  Sometimes it just does not seem fair.  No parent should have to go through the death of there child.  I miss you so much Joseph Mason Henderson.

Your last time to color Easter Eggs :(

you are and will always be my baby boy....

you are my Hero

15

This Girl just turned 15 today.

Oh my I can hardly believe it. Well life has been pretty crazy here..   My son passed away and that has been horiable for all of us, however we are dealing with it.  Just thought I would get on here and write.  School is out and that is just fine with me,  hoping to have a nice summer and lots of family time.  The weather has just started to get nice so that is a good thing.

Well hope you are all having a wonderful Monday!  

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, hope you all have a wonderful day filled with family and friends.

School Yes It Did Happen!

Well School happened again no matter how many times I tried to will it not too....  We are at the end of our First week and it is going to be hard.  Jacob is in the 4th grade and they have lots of rules and homework every night except for Wednesday.  So not going to work, he already was up till 10:00 trying to finish it.. headaches are on the horizon... Jordyn seems fine so far so that is good.  So here are the school pictures....
