Packing and saying goodbye

It was bitter sweet to leave Florida.  I will miss the people and friends I made there, but I am so excited to be on the West coast again.  Florida felt like so far away.  The kids and I never got to see the sunrise over the beautiful Atlantic, so the morning before we flew out I woke the kids up early and we drove to our favorite Restaurant "Mulligan's).  Mulligans sits right on the beach and there are benches next to it so I figured the kids and I could sit and watch the sunrise, eat breakfast and then take Adelyn to Preschool for the last time. 
Our favorite Restaurant "Mulligans".  It's family oriented and right on the beach.  They have a "band" every weekend and Adelyn and I would just dance and dance on the dance floor.

The sun is peaking....




So pretty. The pictures do not do it justice.

Our good friend Mary Volsky came over to give Adelyn an early birthday present she got her.  Mary, although not very old, became like a Grandma to Adelyn very early on.  They absolutely adored each other and I was so grateful for Mary to somewhat fill a void there for Adelyn. Adelyn would sit with Mary during Sacrament sometimes and they would just giggle.  She gave Adelyn this expensive Lilly Pulsipher outfit.  Thanks Mary!  We definately will miss you!

So excited


Mary insists "Try it on now!"

Cute outfit for a cute girl

Adelyn drew this picture of her and Mary on some filler moving paper.  Mary wanted to keep it.

Here we are packing and saying goodbye to our house.  We also had to leave behind our couches and our kitchen table.  The Kubush's were excited to get new furniture and we were grateful they could take it!



Our couches we had to leave


Our kitchen table we had to leave.  This was our wedding gift from Darrell and Susie so it was super sad to leave behind.
