July 4th came and went. I remember last year we were all together and celebrated at Autumns house. It was nice to be together but little did we know that would be the last time we would all be together. At least we took a picture, I just wish Autumn and Tyler were in it also. Raegan was so young that she will not remember it but don't you worry, that little girl is going to know so much about you that she will think she knew you!!!
I remember how you loved the 4th of July. I remember that you would go to Sergio's house and make those horrible bottle rockets!! Oh how you loved those things. You would set them off and they were so loud that I thought the Sheriffs were going to come for sure. I also remember those little things that you throw on the ground and they pop. I liked those, not to loud and no fire involved. We went to Aunt Karen's house this year to celebrate and your cousin Melissa had a bag of those and it made me think of you. I wish you could have seen Raegan at the party. She was out there partying with all the big kids. She played the donut on the string game, whipped cream eating contest with a candy at the bottom of the bowl and she even played tossing the water balloon contest with Danielle. Oh and she even danced a bit too!!!
I am sure in Heaven you have fireworks all the time. To be honest with you, I did not look at a single firework this year. There is nothing for me to celebrate. Yes, I am proud to be an American but not this year. What I am proud of is the man than you had become and how you touch so many lives here on Earth. I just wish I would have told you more. I love you and miss you very much. Until we meet again.
