It was pretty hard for me to watch Rachel say goodbye to her friends. Dustin and I have ways of keeping up with people, but it's so hard when I know Rachel won't really remember Roanoke except through pictures.
We went by her babysitters house so she could say goodbye, but Shelma had a doctors appointment and there were only two of her friends there that day. I was happy that Ashton was there though. These two were the best of friends. They saw each other Monday-Friday at Shelma's house, then again at church on Sunday. Ashton would only stay in Sunday School if Rachel was there too!
She had to have a picture with Coco, too!
Isabel wasn't too interested in having her picture taken, so this was as good as it was going to get with her!
Miss Kristi- our favorite nursery worker!
Grandma Jo and Grandpa Ira. Ira gives all the kids candy when they come in on Sunday morning. They even gave Rachel and Gavin gifts for Christmas, Valentine's Day, or just because! They even gave them little gifts when we left, including a bag of Hershey Kisses for Rachel- her favorite Sunday morning candy!
We were able to meet up with a few couples from our small group before we left. The kids all had a great time together, too.
Sam, Charley, Emery, Rachel and Layna
