Last minutes photos as we had to say GoodBye to our friends...

 

          Why is it so HARD to say good bye to the Ocean water and to GOOD FRIENDS?

Speaking of friends our next stop was to see our good friends from Simi Valley California.  This is where our first two children were born and where Shannons career started.  He worked with Ivonne Torres and Laurie Stevens at the time.  He LOVED all of the great people at Axius.  So we stopped in for a lunch date with them.

 Morgan was born while we lived in Simi Valley. Ivonne and Rodney loved her like their own...

We spent many weekends having BBQ's and just visiting in their home. Rodney was, and still is a fabulous cook and Ivonne makes the best chicken and crackers:)

These last three photos are pictures from when Morgan was a baby 13 years ago.  Now look at their two beautiful kids and our five.  Time goes fast and yet you know you have true friendships when you see one another again and it feels like you were together yesterday.  I cried when I saw them and I cried saying Good Bye...

Such wonderful years!!!
