Sweet Goodbye's

Last Wednesday Shelby and I went to my previous place of employment. Provo Dispatch, to visit my girls. It was so bittersweet. I feel so close to those girls. We caught up on the officers, made fun of some of them a little and every one of them held Shelby for a little while. This is a picture of my good friend KJ taking her turn with my sweet girl. I didn't get a chance to post what those girls mean to me although I am sure you have all figured it out with some of my posts. I made some very special friendships there that I will never forget! It was nice to see the girls and so hard to leave. I love those guys so much!! My mom stopped by for one last goodbye. She was in town for an appointment and dropped by. The boys were so excited to see their grandma. They love her so much! I was so happy to have one last minute with my beautiful mom! I love her so much. That might be one regret that I have leaving, being farther away from my mom. She is such a great example to me of what I want to be as a Great mother and a Great wife. She is so kind, so selfless and so loving. We have never been able to hang out like I would have liked to, only because to this day my mom still works from dawn until dusk taking care of everyone! I could only wish to be half of what she is! I love you so much mom!
Gauge wasn't really excited about posing!
The Bastian's stopped by! Sid, Ryan's brother, was going to be out of town the next few days so they decided to stop by instead of the possibility of missing us. The cousins had not yet seen Shelby so it was nice to show her off a bit and even better to see these guys again before we leave.
They also met Abbey!
Paxton looks up to his cousins so much. They are so good to him! All attention is on him when they are around and Paxton just eats it up. Poor Gauge was taking his nap and almost missed the visit entirely!
They played a game of soccer and talked to each other. The boys (Wyatt Wes and Wade) listened while Paxton told them about his super hero powers and showed them what he could do with a soccer ball and then they said their final goodbye's
Paxton loves Wyatt so much! It was good to see the Bastian's again. They were another really hard part of leaving this area! We are going to miss you guys so much!
Last but not least the Mobbs' stopped bye too. I didn't get to see them because I was feeding Shelby but Boston and Alex got to meet Abbey and run around with the boys and Paxton was able to see his friend once more. He talks about Boston so much and I know even though he doesn't see him much, he is going to really miss him! We are going to miss them too!
Thanks for the visits you guys! We love you!

Oh saying goodbye to friends and cousins is sooo tough! What a cute pic of Wyatt holding Paxton. I'm sure Leslie didn't want to let go of Shelby. I wouldn't have if I was her...

Well like mother like daughter...you take care of everyone from dush to dawn ('cept on Man sandwhich nite)
