Traditions

When dear ones pass from our lives we create traditions to honor our memory of them. Last month to honor my mom's birthday we visited her gravesite leaving beautiful flowers to adorn her headstone. We also launched 10 helium ballons and watched them float away as we laid our backs upon the grass. The day after her birthday my sisters and I and two of my mom's wonderful friends went out to lunch together. My mom loved to eat out at restaurants with friends and family so it was a good way to honor that memory. Here are a few pictures of that lovely luncheon with dear family and friends.
