On Saturday, our squadron organized some "Holiday Jet Pictures" and Chloe enjoyed her first time in the cockpit.
After the jet pictures, we visited the San Antonio Zoo.
"Is everybody happy?!?"On Sunday, we attended the grand opening of the Carl's Jr. in NW San Antonio. The Sara Sullivan Foundation was presented with a $500 donation from the "Making It Happen" Campaign. Thank you to Carl's Jr. and to everyone who came out to show your support.
The Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation (ABCF) was the other recipient on Sunday, and I met some great people from their organization. I am now an honorary member of the ABCF and looking forward to getting involved and supporting their cause.
Chloe Grace was there, showing support for Team SaraSTRONG and her Momma.

Chloe started smiling this past week and she is getting cuter and cuter. I'm so thankful to have her in my life!
As the holiday season approaches, I know that there are going to be tough days ahead. When I signed up for our squadron holiday party and put '1' attendee, that was like a punch to the gut.I am going to Houston for Thanksgiving to spend the holidays with my dad and brothers. As Thanksgiving approaches, I have found myself thinking of all that I have to be thankful for. Though there is lots of sadness in life right now, the "I am THANKFUL FOR..." list is very long and I am choosing to be joyful.
We wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and I encourage you to take some time to reflect on all that you have to be thankful for. God Bless.

Shonda =)
I love that smiling picture! Adorable! Your posts are always a blessing - and this one even more so as I'm reminded of all the blessings I don't even recognize.
I just wanted to say that I have read your blog from start to finish and now am a follower....your words have made a difference in my life. I am going through a rough patch and your story has helped me see what true blessings I have in my life. I needed that help...to see what really matters in life and that you can choose to happy and joyful. Thank you for this and thank you for sharing your story. Chloe is soooo precious!!
I wish you and your family didn't have to endure the pain and loss you're experiencing. I know God is faithful and He's carrying you all through this time, but it doesn't change the fact that this all is so awful! I really admire you, Brady, and especially the God in you.
The pictures are all so sweet. The pic of Chloe supporting Sara in her SaraStrong onesie touched me, and I absolutely love Chloe's sweet smile. I rejoice with you that the Lord blessed you and Sara with your beautiful daughter. I know her presence in your life makes a difference in a huge way!
Oh, I also love the jet photo of Chloe and you. As the wife of an aviator, the pic made me smile.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
You are an amazing man! I hope that you enjoy showing off Miss Chloe during the holidays. Your family will definitely be in our prayers. Stay strong!
She is beautiful! And her cousins are very pretty, too!
You don't know me but a friend asked for prayer for your family months ago. I have been praying ever since. I can't imagine how difficult this time is. Know that there are people (who you know and don't know) that are lifting you before the Father. May you be blessed beyond measure!

Chloe is just adorable! I will be praying for you over the next couple of weeks. I hope you both have a great Thanksgiving tomorrow with your family.
Praying for you still. Chloe is beautiful. Proud of the way you are loving and raising her. Very Thankful for you both.
Lamentations 3-
22 Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
24 I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."
25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;
26 it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the LORD.
Phillipians 4:19And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Brad, I continue to pray for you and Miss Chloe. She is getting so big! Happy thanksgiving.
Chloe is a beautiful, beautiful little girl! And you are a brave, wonderful man. We are thinking of your family.

Brady,
I found your blog a few months back and am amazed at your faith despite the great pain you are feeling. You are a true inspiration to all and Chloe is so blessed to have you as a father!
May God continue to embrace you and Chloe,
wow Brady, Chloe's getting so big!! May you both have a blessed Thanksgiving with your families love surrounding you.
God bless you, Brady. Chloe is adorable and you continue to inspire with your faith and trust and that you keep going- you could easily retreat and not attend the parties, not venture out or share, but you do and that alone is indicative of your strength and determination, your faith that God will provide all you need. You remain in my prayers. I know how difficult the holidays can be, not to mention all those firsts, all those little moments when you turn to share and.... :-(
I am so sorry for your loss and wish you worlds of happiness in the years to come. Thank you so much for sharing with us. God Bless You and little Chloe!!
LOVE IT ALL! Looks like you are staying busy. We miss you guys. Tell Chloe hello from Micah (and the rest of us too). Love The Cross gang
i do not know you, i believe i found your blog through kelly's korner. WHAT AN INSPIRATION YOU AND YOUR WIFE ARE!! i know Jesus is using sara and her legacy to do mighty things for His Kingdom!! how blessed you are to have little chloe to walk through this life with!! she is absolutely beautiful. know that i will pray for your family and for God to be glorified through you!!
oh Brady, i dont know where to start... i was told about you and your precious family by a fellow blog reader of yours... so i sat down and read it from start to present... the tears flowed and im still choked up even days after reading. i have shared Sara's story. i have been changed, my priorities changed, and i now cherish the little moments with my family all the more. i want to leave a legacy and saddened that i have wasted so many years being focused on regret. this thanksgiving was much different, because of Sara's legacy, your legacy, and miss cutie pie Chloe! praying for you tonight especially
i'm loving that sweet smile. she is beautiful. praying for you guys. as always.
I am so glad you are continuing to blog. You have a network of prayer warriors out here in cyberspace! I hope your Thanksgiving was good with your family. I am glad you are able to focus on what to be thankful for, many others would not be able to. Your faith is strong and your strength, amazing.
I hope your holiday season brings joy and peace, to your (and Sara's) entire family.
grace,
Shelley
Our family still continues to pray daily for you and Chloe.
She's beautiful! You are amazing.
Signed,
Scott Bell
You are right, happiness is sometimes a choice.
God bless you and Baby Chloe.
