My favorite picture with the girls. From May of 2013 The Hardings moved in around the corner from us nearly two years ago.  They have been an enormous blessing in our lives since then.  We have really enjoyed having such good friends so close and have loved spending time with Abby and Ivy.    They make us smile and laugh and bring so much joy into our quiet lives.   The last couple of weeks we packed in as much time with them as we could get before their unfortunate move date.  We watched the girls several times so Mike and Christina could be productive and get out on a date.  We helped Christina prep for Abby's Frozen birthday party and had fun celebrating with her and her friends.  We soaked up as many hugs, smiles and cuddles from them as we could get.  

I'm not quite sure what we're going to do without them.  We are going to miss their shouts of glee when they see us, their fabulous hugs and all their energy.  I'm going to especially miss watching Ivy cling to Lee and just shake with excitement when she sees him.  We'll miss having Abby's 4th Birthday them around the corner and getting love from them whenever we need a little pick-me-up.

Saying goodbye to them yesterday was one of the hardest goodbyes I can remember.  We're trying to figure out how and when we will get to Utah to see them and can't wait for August when we meet them at Disneyland.   Until we do, we're going to just miss them like crazy.
