Kinzie passed away on the 3rd of July, 2010 in our home although the time of death was actually 45 minutes later at the hospital. It took 20 minutes to navigate the parade route of the Show Low parade that had just began. That same night we watched the firework show in Taylor; we did it for Emma and to avoid our empty home full of Kinzie's posessions. It was probably the best thing we could have done as it forced us to continue on that same day. It was with the same thoughts that we contemplated this 4th of July. I think it fair to say I will never fully love the celebrations again but for my family we carry on...with Kinzie in our hearts and on our minds always.
We chose to join Cale's family in Greer for a small reunion. The parade was held a few miles away in Eager and it was a big one! Emma claims "It was the best parade ever."
Chris' girlfrieind Stephanie joined us and it was so nice to meet her! Emma and her became great friends.
Waiting for the parade...and it was hot! Over 100 degrees and not a cloud in sight!
Emma often grabs one piece and then is happy with it. We have to send her back out at least a couple times to get some for mom and dad!
My best little bud!
