Goodbye Dinner

So my little sister/best friend/shoulder to cry on/non stop text buddy is moving. I’m so sad I really have tried not to think about it. I wish I could pack up my house and move with her. I know they will love Bonnie Lake, Washington and I am really happy for them in this new adventure. I’ll just have to visit a bunch and have the kids skype all the time! Kelli left for Texas this morning for 3 weeks and I will get to say my official goodbyes when she comes back for a week after that before she moves. Erica and Andy were in town over the weekend so we had one final dinner with everyone in the family. The kids have so much fun playing together! My mom really wanted to get a family picture since it will be hard to get everyone together after the Thurgoods move. I tried my best with my camera and self timer!
We get the pleasure of watching Battle and Willow for the next month. As soon as we got out of the car Aaron said, “Remember when Bode was in the NICU for a whole month and we watched Gunner for you guys?!” Well, I knew what was coming. It’s the least we can do and so far so good. Bode is just in love with Willow! I think she will entertain him the entire time. Kaylan just cried and cried when she had to say goodbye to “Yellow.” That girl loves her dog! I didn’t take a whole lot of pictures, but here are a few. We are sure going to miss Kelli and her family. Any time I think about it I start to tear up, but I’m not going to worry about it for another month or so!!

Logan got a new bike from his Grandma and Grandpa Aullman and Bode was testing it out. I might just have to get him his own bike!

Cute Cute family pictures. Well all the pictures are beautiful, but it's fun to see your whole family together. Sad Kelli is moving, it's hard to be away from family! I miss mine dearly!
