Breaking up is hard to do...

Tonight was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.  We hosted an appreciation dinner for our high school ministry volunteer staff this evening.  It was very nice to be able to relax with our friends and enjoy our last "meeting" with everyone.  Although we are sad to say goodbye, the night was surprisingly filled with a lot of laughs.  We all just love each other so much and really have so much fun together.  Everyone had such nice things to say to us...it was really very special and made us feel so appreciated.  The GIRLs were especially outrageous tonight!  Good times...
This is following an especially emotional evening last night.  The Youth Group through an awesome party for us, starting with the world's biggest limo as transportation to the church!  There were about 60 students crammed onto the Mexico bus, hanging out the windows, waiting outside our house to take us to the party!  The night was full of so many students, friends and parents with such thoughtful words for us.  Thank you to all of you who helped make our night so special.  We really felt so appreciated last night and love you all so much!  We will miss you...

Glad you had all the "ladies" at the party and yes it was good to laugh in the midst of all the goodbyes. Thank you for the sweet letter and gift card too. You really didn't have to do that. We love you so much and it is going to be hard to have you away from us. Good luck cramming us all into the rental apartment.

*oh yeah, btw, did I forget Anna?
