On saturday we said good-bye to Mary-Anne, Jeremiah and Ethan as they headed off to Ft. Hood. After spending 3 weeks together, Ethan and Skylar were definately buddies. We tried to get one last picture of them.
Ethan was distracted by the flower on Skylar's shoulder:

Then he noticed her barrette:

He decided it was fun to play with:

So we moved Ethan to the non-barrette side and tried again. This time they just chilled like the little villians that they are while we took pictures:

One last picture of our families (either it was Ethan's nap time or he does NOT want to go to Texas):

My BFF (that's right, I said BFF, we're in 7th grade):

Mary-Anne gave Skylar a flower before she left because she knows how much Skylar loves them. She smelled it until all the petals fell off and then took a nap with the stem.

A picture from almost 5 years ago, which honestly feels like it was another lifetime:

I miss you already! It sure is quiet around here without you guys. But I know that we'll see each other again and we'll pick up right where we left off.....
Only two more months and it's OUR turn to move.
I heart my BFF and miss her so much! Love the old photo! Brings back lots of memories! Give Skylar kisses....oh, and CONGRATS on a sleeping Skylar! You are brilliant to come up with the reason! A big girl bed...genius! Enjoy!!
