Williams Going Away Party

The Monday after Easter, Brandon and I hosted a Going Away Party for our good friends The Williams (Matt, Libby, Cami & Reese). She is my friend that just had a baby girl about a month ago. Well, while I was visiting her and her new baby girl in the hospital she announced to me that her and her family were moving back home to Kansas. The timing was a big shocker to me since she hadn’t even left the hospital with her brand new baby girl, but the move itself wasn’t too shocking since I know that her and her husband wanted to move back home very bad. Although it is hard for all of us here to watch them go, I am so very excited for them and this new chapter of their lives and we wish them nothing but the best. Congrats Matt on your new job!

The party turned out to be a BLAST. It was so nice to have our old Bible Study Group all together again to hang out, eat, watch all the kids play and mainly just to catch up. There were about 16 Adults and 10 Kids so we had a full house. Thanks again everyone for pitching in for the big pot luck, I couldn’t have done it with out all your help! Enjoy the pictures from our fun filled evening.

Kaitlyn signed herself up to bring a Dessert and boy she did not disappoint. She bought this delicious Chocolate Cake with Fudge Filling she got from a local bakery and she made some delicious cupcakes for all the kiddos. Yum!

Yep. That’s my crazy wild and super energetic tom boy daughter! The jumper didn’t keep most of the girls attention for all that long and they all went to the play room to play dress up, but not my daughter. She had to be in the middle of all the boys jumping right there along with them. She is such a tom boy. I LOVE it!

Olivia, Cami & Owen playing in the mud box. It rained earlier that day so it was no longer the sand box. Lol. The kids said they were pretending they were at the beach building a sand castle. Love their imaginations!
