Birthday dinner and saying goodbye

I told Shane that I wanted to go out for my Red Robin birthday dinner with Kelly and her kids before they left.  He wasn't feeling very well, but was a good sport and went anyway.  :)

The kids loved having a dog in the house!  Dimes is a sweetheart, so that helps.  ;)

I don't know why Lexi was mad, but Liz looks cute!

Baby Jordan

Oh my little Mr Logan

Sweet girl

Kelly and Logan

Lexi drank some ranch and was feeling happier (and sillier!).
 Back at the house, we had a cupcake party with all the kids.
But the girls had to show me their "special spot" first.
Girl talk is best under Kaden's bed.

Cupcakes!!

Saying goodbye.  :(  *sniff*
Early the next morning, I drove Kelly and her kids to the airport.  I didn't want to start crying in front of her kids because I wanted them to be excited about moving to Texas and happy for their long day of flights ahead.  Anyway, I literally barely made it back into the car and just lost it.  I sobbed the whole way home (probably shouldn't have been driving...) and was in bad enough shape when I walked in that Shane called in to work and got the day off so I could stay in bed and cry all day.  (I did.)  I hate change, but I keep reminding myself this was a good thing for their family.  We miss them every day, but are so thankful for letters and Skype!
