Saying Goodbye

After Melissa's wedding (they hadn't left for their honeymoon yet) but before I flew back to Colorado, the girls and I had a chance to have dinner one last time. It was fun but also bittersweet because both of them are moving away. Amanda is moving to Texas to pursue a career in special education and Melissa (and Eric!) are moving to JAPAN for a year to teach English. They are my lifelong friends, so I was really sad to say goodbye for what might be a year! But our friendship is so strong, and we have already survived me moving to Colorado, so I'm sure we will have lots of phone time and maybe even video chats. We took some pictures after dinner at Z-Tejas on Mill.

The 3 Musketeers




Amanda & Melissa - I'm going to miss you so much!


I look happy, but I am already thinking about how long this year will seem.


Be safe in Japan, Melissa!
