I think you and your family have incredible strength. I particularly love the Ellie tee shirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413984 Sun, 21 Dec 2014 03:37:37 +0000 Jaime 1413984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah you have found such lovely ways to cherish your memories of Ellie without losing yourself to them. She is still helping you all be the best you can be. My heart is with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413972 Sun, 21 Dec 2014 02:21:51 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1413972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much for the sweet words of encouragement! The movie was delightful. There were so many times when I could just picture Ellie laughing. It was perfectly fitting to watch on that day... When lying in the bed, watching the first movie, Ellie would pull herself up a little and slap her leg and just giggle over certain parts of the movie. Other times she would shake her head and groan with embarrassment over something that she thought was mortifying. I loved watching her excitement and engagement over such silliness. I defininely knew the exact moments in the movie last night when Ellie would have laughed. And then I would look over at my nine year old niece and watch her giggle... It was such a therapeutic night. Then we went to a restaurant and face-timed with our Montana family. I don't know how or why we managed to get such an amazing, group of family who would bear our sorrows with such love... but I'm forever grateful. </p> <p>And... best compliment of the evening was when Ethan looked at my jeans and said "are those jeans ripped? That is SO cool." He may not think his mom is cool when he is 16, but for now, I'll take it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413951 Sun, 21 Dec 2014 01:04:16 +0000 Angie 1413951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry for my late response, Sarah. </p> <p>It was a day filled with immense strength and sadness, and my&nbsp;heart goes out to you and your family. You all look and are fabulous.&nbsp;Honouring precious Ellie,&nbsp;and celebrating her life is so very cathartic and meaningful. She can feel your spirit, as she looks down on you&nbsp;from her big fluffy cloud in the sky. There will always be a connection.&nbsp;Much love. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413939 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 23:56:14 +0000 Caro in Oz 1413939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a wonderful tribute, thanks for sharing.

It has been a wonderful and fun and sad and theraprutic day! We have laughed and cried... so much like we did the first year. And I will neither confirm nor deny that my sister smuggled a little wine into the movie... ahhhhh. My sister also brought me a late bday gift which reminds me of Angie's post on tee shirts with words. This is a statement I can totally get behind (I had to try the top on and post in front of the display...) "A pair of shoes can change your life" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413589 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 02:12:47 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1413589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a comforting way to remember and be with your daughter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413579 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 01:59:47 +0000 Vickie KY 1413579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for sharing and the wonderful pictures of your family.

Hope the movie is fun - it's a family favourite here too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/www-special-family-day#post-1413530 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 23:45:11 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1413530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today is the 7th anniversary of Ellie's death. Her favorite movie at the end was Night at the Museum (she watched it more times than I can count) and it just so happens that the third movie is coming out TODAY. We have a group at the theater watching it shortly and at the exact same time there is another group of family out Montana watching it! We have tee shirts that we made with Ellie's photo on them so John and my in-laws wore their shirts. Ethan did his own thing and I couldn't resist getting a photo of him at the mall with Adam Levine's photo. (Ethan is obsessed with Adam right now.. And has been inspired to wear skinny jeans.) I am so happy with my outfit. neutral, lots of texture and low contrast! </p>
