A Fond Farewell

We met our friends Mark and Kyra in our first ward in Houston--their first Sunday was our first Sunday too and Mark was starting work with ExxonMobil as well. 
We got to know them a little before moving to our house and were thrilled when they ended up buying a house down the street!  They had a little girl about 2 months after Brooke and it was so fun to have them so close.  We had a great almost 2 years with them as neighbors, game-playing buddies, and friends.  Sadly, that time came to an end in the middle of January when they had to move to Louisiana for work. 
We got to have them over for one last dinner the week that they moved and it happened to be Mark's birthday.  We miss you guys!

Hugs!
