So long Sherer's!

As I posted previously, Val, Mike and Cali decided to move to Colorado. They made the big move June 24, 2011. It was a hard reality to see them go. I have taken for granted for so long having all of my immediate family close by. I could visit them on their birthday's, see them for dinners, go shopping, etc. So it's been tough realizing that a few of our parts are across the country. :(

We had a big going away party for them the week before. My mom did a fabulous job, as always, setting up a great place for friends and family to say goodbye at. Such a great turnout of guests! That was party one..

Then we had a girls night in Val's honor. One last girl's night goodbye filled with apps and drinks hosted by Tina. A great host and a great night with laughter and fun memories. That was party two..

Finally the night before their departure we had a "clean out the freezer" party at the Sherer's. Mike grilled a bunch of yummy food up and the immediate family came together for a final goodbye. Techinically party number three...

Party three it hit me that it was really happening. Sad day.

Thankfully to skype, I still get to see Val and Cali almost daily. And thankfully for them finding a rental later than expected, I get to see the both of them this month! I'm sure that's when we'll have party number four.



My going away gift to Val. A little something to let her know that our families will always be together, no matter where we are.
