The Flurry Continues

Once again, friends came together to wish us farewell.  Today we were outside at Don and Belinda's beautiful home where the pool tempted Avery with its cool, blue water.  Unfortunately, it was overcast and a bit breezy so Avery was left to dangle her toes from the steps.  Just as last night's gathering, we were again overwhelmed with everyone's support and love for our family.  I still can't think too much about leaving everyone as they've all been such an intricate part of our lives.  All of this is much harder on Aaron right now than me as he really is saying goodbye.  The girls and I will be here for awhile longer and I know that we will get to continue seeing our friends.  But for today, we were all together and having fun.

Our very close friends, Matt and Ellyn

Doug and Aaron- Doug is leaving ISU as well
and headed to Kansas.

Avery and Belinda, or BeBe, as she has taught Avery to call her.

Don and Belinda have always made us feel like a part of
their family. We are so grateful!

Avery and Matt playing the piano- This right here made me
cry my eyes out!  Avery LOVES Matt so much
and he is so good with her.
