It happens every May

This is kind of a bittersweet time of year for us. You can expect it in any predominantly student ward. At least 10 close family friends are moving on with their lives--spreading out all over the country. While we are so excited for what their futures hold, we are sad to see them go :( I think this will be the first year that it will really hit us hard. Noah is old enough to realize that many of his best buds will be gone and we have had the last 3 years to become really great friends with all those leaving.













Not everyone is leaving. We came here at the same time as the Grahams and will finish up with them.


Of course we have other good friends who will be staying and I know we will make new friends as new people move in in the summer. (Including my great friend Kathy who I was on the folk dance team with--so excited she will be moving here!!!)

To those leaving, we will miss you so much--keep in touch!!

Great pictures! Thanks for taking them. I can't believe how bummed I am about moving away. We will definitely miss you guys.

Definitely a sad thing when families move away. I find that it's getting harder as I get older. Because the new families that move in are almost always young and don't want to hang out with "old" people like me and Dan.
