We didn't have any grand plans for Kelvin's 42nd birthday this month; however, when Pepper passed, he had the idea to do a celebration commemorating her life (and his).
Pepper was cremated and we got her remains last week.
Kelvin got a lot of Pepper-related gifts.

Plaques for our garden
Sarah K doodled this lovely drawing!
Sean and Zane also drew these by hand!
Our friends gathered for food and fellowship and time for a short eulogy by Kelvin and sprinkling of her ashes in a corner of our garden.
Kelvin opened a few more gifts on his actual birthday.

In the afternoon, we headed to Luffenholtz beach, another one of Pepper's favorite places and where we spent a lot of time during the Pandemic. We went there in October 2022 when we thought Pepper only had days left (but she made it almost another two years!).
a few more of her ashes were sprinkled into the sand
Sand script, by Iver
Like the letters in the sand, her body has left us, but her memory lives on! Birth and death, the cycles of life...
