Saying GOODBYE for two years...

Well this was the saddest part of our trip. Wade and Travis have been best friends since the day they were born. I think it really hit them they had to say goodbye when Travis got in his car. We were ALL crying watching the special bond they have as they said goodbye. As Travis, Mom and Gpa Tom pulled out of the driveway Travis rolled down the window and with tears in his eyes said "Hooray for Israel" (watch The Other Side of Heaven to understand). It was a very tender moment. Still hard to talk about. We continued the goodbyes with family and hated every minute of it, but know Wade and Travis are doing the right thing. On a lighter note, Leanna designed a tshirt (the green ones in the pictures above) for Lauren, Krista, Rachel and herself that had their nicknames. They are SO cute. Those four girls are the cutest! Of course it won't be 2 years before we see them again, but saying goodbye is always hard. WE LOVE YOU TEXAS FAMILY!
