Dearest Cousins....We will see you soon!

The day finally came yesterday when we had to say goodbye to Jason's sister and our 3 nephews, as they embarked on their journey starting a new life in Indiana.  I think Talan realized truly what it meant this time when we said goodbye to his cousins....he said that he woudn't be seeing his cousins for a long time.  He understood that they would be living more than an 1 hour drive away, but was excited about the idea of having to take a plane to play with them.  Watching our 5 boys grow up together has been so special, and their bond will surely last a lifetime even with thousands of miles between them. Thank goodness for Skype, facebook, and texting so we can keep in touch!  I've included some photos of all of our boys over the years...
