OK, I have to go back and read it now, but I just cruised the photos first. Gaaaaaa! I cannot believe the time has come already! I am so glad she moved close to you too, what you two have come up with and shared with us is awesome! I know you will be close for ever and ever and ever and……! (sigh) I just love you both! I love the excuse to party no matter what! Want to come up and throw be a baby/kids birthday parties this summer at the beach? ;-)
Anyway, Now I don’t know what I was really going to say, oh well. I am sad for both of you but so glad you have technology and that BA flies all over the place!

Oh. That’s lovely and sad and so very festive. I’ll miss the photo montages of both of you guys together. They have been fun.

Good luck to both of you!

I’m super sorry your friendship is turning long distance. I grew up as an expat kid in Ecuador, I know how hard it is to continually have friends come and then move away. I truly hope you can find other to help fill those Bethany-shaped holes. Bethany sounds like an amazing, wonderful, caring person.

Sorry about that Brenda, I know exactly how you feel… it’s such a pity she’s leaving but I am glad you’ll still have your “play-group”.

Blessings

Aw. That made me tear up too. You really have a way with words, Brenda! And pictures. And parties. And just about everything you do! T & B & A really are treasures – but so are you!

Great post! Bethany – I’m glad you said that about Rebakah, as the same thought occurred to me as I was reading it! I call her our social director. Who else plans a two night sleepover party so everyone can make it?

I know just how you feel … I felt it 2 *million* years ago when she moved away from us. But she HAS come back to us to visit! And I’m guessing that there are several of us down here in southern maryland that will be spending more time D.C. way, knowing Miss Bethany! I’m very sad for you guys … but glad to be getting her back! hang in there! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed these very special people!

How lucky you are to have a friend like that. Even if she will be living far away. It’s better to have friended and lost than to never have friended at all. That sounded much better in my head. But you know what I mean.

Oh, this post just tore at me. Having a party was a super wonderful thing to do- I know Bethany and you are awfully close. I know, communication is better in this day and age but it’s not quite the same as getting together in person. I know you’ll miss her and her family lots.

I can understand what you are going through- my husband was in the military for decades and moving away from friends was the absolutely worst part about him being in the service. The moving truck would pull up and a day or so later all my closest pals would be converted into Christmas newsletters.

What a great party. And a good group- you all will still be getting together. I hope Bethany and her family have a safe trip and all their stuff gets there okay.
