We have met many many great people on our Air Force journey so far and it is always hard to say "see you later." This however is by far the toughest "see you later" I have had to do yet. When we first moved to Utah I instantly became friends with Ashlee and our families have made many great memories together.
Luckily the Binghams only lived one street away and our kids all enjoyed each other (...for the most part!). With not having any family here it was great to have friends that you could treat as family. Ones that would watch your kid while you were at the hospital in labor, let you borrow syrup (or eggs, or sugar, or let them borrow your carpet cleaner for many many reasons), agree that coming over for dinner in sweatpants is the only way to do it and really just being like family to us. They were a huge part in making this move to Utah not be so difficult for me. I could go on and on about how much I love their family but I won't because I will cry too much!! I can't wait until we meet up again and have many vacations together and get our husbands to work out their careers so we end up stationed in Germany together in a few years (we can wish right?!).
So onto the party.... we had Jason's pharmacy going away party last week at the Log Cabin on base. It is a cute little cabin and was able to hold all the people that wanted to come wish the Bingham's Good Luck on their next journey to Mississippi.
We did a taco bar and had lots of yummy food, good conversation with friends and Ramos and Dave gave great speeches about how great of a person Jason is. He (their family) will be greatly missed in Utah but I know they are going to meet awesome people in Mississippi and make lots of fun memories in the American South.
I was so bummed the box smashed the cake a little on the car ride over! It still turned out cute and tasted great which is what really matters.
Love this family!! They are the best.
Somehow in all of the fun Quinn got cake icing in her eyebrow.
They thought they were hilarious with their posed pictures for me!
And this is what happens when you give our children Capri Suns... they are nuts!
Air Force friends are good, life is good.
