Goodbyes Part 2

"God keeps our goodbyes painful," Bonhoeffer said, "in order to highlight how vital our past togetherness was."

And painful it was.  But before the pain, we enjoyed being together in Maggie and Al's town, Richmond, Virginia.  We had fun at the motel pool where the kids met Afton for the first time.

Julian loves the water (of course, what doesn't make that cherub smile?)

 Afton and her folks set up for our Thanksgiving feast 

Al made his mom's pies

Rand and the youngest grandchildren

The next two pictures have Rachel and Dave's girls in them but I blurred them out because legally we still can't show them off (but when we can, just you wait!). So excuse the creepy ghost look.

Williamsburg's Busch Gardens got people in the festive Christmas mood.


We took this at the motel right before leaving for the airport.
I can't look at it without shedding a tear (or 10). I love these people so much
Looks like Nick has extra appendages - my novice blurring skills
