2010 Memorial Day Balloons

The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example. ~Benjamin Disraeli

2010 Memorial Day Remembrance Balloons.

Every Memorial Day our Family sends off Balloons in honor of those that have served in the Military and have sacrificed much. We have done this every year since we lost dear friends in 2005. I plan on adding every Memorial Remembrance Picture to this Album. Our tradition is to send off Balloons on Memorial Day no matter where we are at! We always attach a note to the balloons. The Note has the Last Names of our Family and Friends with the Date that they died. The destination that we sent the balloons from is also included. We also give our address and ask that if anyone finds the balloons that they write to us to tell us where they found the balloons. That way we can see how far they flew! If we don't receive a note than we pretend it went all the way to the heavens.

This years Balloons!

1 2 3! Release!

...And we watch them until they disappear!

* Received a not back saying that one was found several hours away in South Carolina.
