saying goodbye

Today we had to say goodbye to some very close friends of ours. We met them only 4 months after we arrived here and have been fast-friends since. The girls have grown really close, and if you're an avid reader of my blog you will definitely recognize the faces. We had lunch with them at Chili's today (along with a few other families) and then took them to the airport. We wish them luck on their new adventure and we can't wait to see "Bean" win her first gold. They will be sincerely missed.A few last laughs - making fun of their short friend, some nice smiles with one of the usual foursome missing (she was home really sick), and the mommies and daughters.
