Missed yesterday due to an awesome event,
our 10th Annual Bood Bash!
There was a whole lot of fun happening!
I stayed up as late as I could.
Ready, set, go...
My story as a whole isn't over!
Some of it hasn't been written yet.
That which is being written embraces grief, growth, and God along with challenges, choices, and Christ.
There is so much more to it than the snippets I have shared.
Those who have traveled close with me, know the whole story. Some who started with us, are still here and am thankful daily Some who can only be here for a season each year, the whole truth is when apart we miss them as much as they miss us. Being miles apart and all our children growing, some with families of their own now, have stretched out the times between visit. To those who were here for a reason, to help us through Physical and Occupational therapies. They are the ones who assist in jobs we can't do ourselves anymore.
So those yearly events, like the races, or Christmas Shopping in the Napa Valley, and the community events love attending, all offer opportunities when we can meet up, make us whole for a day, a week, or even a weekend.
My story, our journey, wouldn't be what it is without those who travel it with us. Each creating a joyful adventure.
The witching hour of five minutes has ended.
Our Annual Boo Bash, celebrating its 10th year, it will be a story all it's own. There are a handful of families that have been attending the whole 10 years and another handful that joined a couple years later. The kids listen, watch, or ask when it is when they know the time is getting near. As they have gotten older, their thanks for being invited are now coming with, "This was the best one!", "I can't wait till next year!".
I have a whole lot of work ahead of me. Packing away the party stuff, and loading the trailer for our next adventure.
