saying goodbye

(Chamberlain and Hudson the final goodbye)

Now that my eyes have somewhat dried out.  

My sister and her family moved.

 This week has gone by so fast since the better part of it has been spent packing and helping with their move.  When the day finally came (yesterday) and we walked up the driveway to load up the moving van, it really hit me. 

I started to cry, and just kept crying and crying.

I realize that we are actually "growing up."

Who knows when/if we will live in the same town again. 

However, I am excited for them.

I cant wait to visit them in the valley of the sun this winter!

(Minutes before they drove into the sun)

Once they pulled out of the Claybaughs neighborhood, Chamberlain asked me, where they were going.  I told him.

Chamberlain cried and cried and cried. 

I think it really hit him that Huddy Buddy was not going home.

Today has been sort of surreal day.
