Bye Bye Swensons :(

cone heads!


silly Dave!


Dave, Joshua, and Tina Swenson

2 1/2 year ago when Zachary was just 4 months old, Dave and I went for a walk in our neighborhood. With Zachary in the baby bjourn, we stopped at the park to see if he would enjoy the baby swing. Out from behind the jungle gym, came a little boy with the most beautiful eyes and his mommy with the most beautiful smile. We all introduced ourselves and she invited me to come with her to a playgroup that had formed in our neighborhood. I would have never guessed that after one meeting, we would become fast friends with an incredible amount in common and that our boys would become the best of friends.

But a funny thing happens when you become friends with a military family. 2 1/2 years into a fabulous friendship, your friends get stationed in California :(. But, instead of sitting around being sad, (there is time for that when they actually leave next Wednesday) we decided to throw a party! Yep, a celebration of the wonderful friendships that have been cultivated between both adults and children in our neighborhood! The party was a hit and everyone had a great time!!!

We love you Swensons and are going to miss you terribly!!!!!!
