Saying goodbye














It was a sad Friday afternoon as we said goodbye to some of the very best friends we have ever had. Our friends Mark and Lori and kids packed up and left for back east. It just wont be the same without them and seeing their green van around town or meeting up to play or do scouts or go out, Christmas eve play, or have lunch or so many other things. I helped Lori start a blog so those of you interested can check my links. We had them over for dinner Thursday and the kds played Friday. Miss you already! Keep in touch! Brandon was SO SAD today when he was the only Deacon on the bench ready to pass. The other boys came late and there was no Andrew. He was teary eyed and it was really pathetic - poor kid. Finally, Todd got some men to help.

oh, my heart aches for Brandon....trust me, i know....Jessica has gone through the same thing....so, how come we can't get these two together to cheer each other up.....oh yeah, i guess we moved away from you, too....maybe it is your turn to move!!! Last time we moved to you, now you need to move to us! There are a lot of empty houses for sale around here....and, Todd would love all the outdoors stuff!

You were so sweet to include us in your blog. We have missed you guy too. Andrew wouldn't go up to pass the sacrament today because we got there just as they were starting, and it was his first time in the new ward. The new ward seems really nice. They had a trunk or treat last night that rivalled some of the great ones in the Founders Ward...lots of fun and candy. Miss you lots.
