Molly's Celebration Week

I know I haven't written all week, but we have been a busy clan.
As many of you know - Jeremy's mom died 1 year ago on April 10th. So, we spent the 9th-17th celebrating her life. Molly had a great joy for life. Everyday she lived like it was her last.
So, here is the breakdown of our week.
Saturday the 9th -
Jeremy, Jen, JJ, Ty, Dylan, Jeremy's brother Paul and girlfriend Alahna, Jeremy's sister Chrissy and her 5 kids (Isiah, Mackayla, Tyisha, Omni, and Molly) and close family friend Marquita went to the ocean which was Molly's favorite place. The kids had a great time. Jeremy and Paul took the plunge and went out in the water. Molly went in everytime she went there. They were cold, but they did it.
Sunday the 10th -
A trip to the cemetary and a BBQ at Jeremy's dads house with family friends. Nice to see everyone again.
Monday and Tuesday 11th and 12th were Jeremy's work days.
Wednesday the 13th -
We went to the Tulip Festival in Skagit Valley. Molly loved flowers. And the flowers were beautiful. We got some great pictures of the kids.
Thursday the 14th - The kids had some friends over and then we went to the Washington State History Museum. They had the September 11th exhibit here from the Smithsonian in DC. It was great. They had lots of interesting stuff and a memorial wall.
Friday the 15th -
We took the boys and Jen's niece to Chuck E Cheese's. They had a blast. Then, in the evening we had the Sonics game with Boys scouts. The boys had a wonderful time. The Sonics won and then they got to go down on the court and shoot baskets and meet Squatch the mascot. We got a great picture.
Saturday the 16th -
We went to the Puyallup spring fair. A lot smaller than we remembered, but the boys got their rides and Jen got her corn on the cob. Dad got his burger although earthquake wasn't there (They have large burgers).
Sunday the 17th -
JJ had a pool party with his friends from school. They always have fun at the pool. Dylan even went in and had a good time. We got some great pictures.
All in all it was a busy hectic week, but it was a great way to celebrate Molly's life.
Thanks for all your thoughts this week.
