last hoorah

It has been a sad couple of weeks on our cul-de-sac.  Our favorite home schooling friends have moved and it has been very quiet around here.  We hosted all three of the kids for the weekend while Mom and Dad loaded up the storage boxes and we had tons of movies, popcorn pizza and memories made.
We have been blessed with great neighbors before, but the kids really bonded with them and it has not been the same without them.  Each time the kids would call it a day, they all huddled together for a group hug, including R2.  It tore me up to watch them have one last group hug before they loaded up on Sunday morning.  I will admit, I was the first to shed a tear.
