It's hard to say good-bye


Hannah's all ready for church and looking
oh so cute!! Tyler loves his big brother!



The next day found out that Brad and Tara poll were moving to Syracuse. So the next weekend we had the two family's over for pizza at our house since their homes were in moving mode. Brad was John's 2nd counselor in the Stake YM Presidency. They had many great times- went through so many neat experiences together. Memories to last a lifetime. Brad and Tara have helped us out many of times. What a blessing it is to have good friends. This family will be missed so much by everyone!

Kate H., Hannah, Olivia H., Meg P., Matthew, Jace P., and Tyler

We gave them a porcelain popcorn bowl that everybody signed
the inside of. filled it with popcorn and treats and gave them a
scrapbook of pictures.



When we got home from the funeral we got ready to have the Holyoaks Moving party. Rand and Andrea are great friends. They are such a great family. Always so willing to help everyone. Everyone is going to miss them so much. It was an open house so throughout the evening all the friends in the ward could stop by to say good-bye.






On January 27, 2008 President Gordon B. Hinckley passed away. We woke the kids up early Fri. morning to attend the viewing. It was a very special experience for all of us. We will never forget this weekend. The obove pictures were taken on Saturday, the day of his funeral. Beautiful but cold day. John was given 2 tickets but found an extra one so Matthew could go with us.





Joel S. for Christmas got us tickets to the
Jazz Vs. Spurs game. GO JAZZ!

Matthew saw his friend Braxton L. at
the game

Hannah looks adorable all ready for church! She has some great poses!

It's hard to see good friends move away, but good friends will always be close in heart!

I bet going to the viewing of the President and the funeral was an experience you will never forget. I love those pictures.

Go Utah Jazz... errrr...I mean SUNS!!

I understand about the saying goodbye thing. I even got to where I refused to make friends one time when we moved, b/c I hate saying good bye to them. that lasted about 6 months and then I realized how important friends are, so good friends are worth saying goodbye too. The best part is the really good friends will be your friends forever. You email - and you get together when you can.
