Farewell, Friends

I hate saying goodbye. This week, we had to say goodbye to some dear friends as they left Dallas and began their transition to living overseas. We really enjoyed hanging out with them every week and we'll really really miss them. BUT...since they were trying to pack as little as they could for their move, we were very fortunate recipients of some pretty awesome stuff. Some of the things we inherited:

- an electric mixer
- plastic drawers for organizing the baby room closet
- decorative boxes that perfectly match baby room
- very cool coffee mug
- assorted spices and lots of ice cream
- a lovely picture frame with an even lovelier picture of a happy couple
- all the fixins to make some yummy sticky rice
- an herb garden!

So while we will miss our wednesday dinner/game nights with Avericity, or joking around with the Lees, it's nice that we will have so many reminders of them around our home. Everytime I drink coffee, cook with some fresh herbs, or bake a cake, I will remember our friendship and think of them and their adventures. We wish them luck and will be thinking of them daily!

Me and Tim have the same smile. And so do you and the Boss.

I don't like saying goodbye either. Soon we'll say hello to you!
