Saying Goodbye

Before we left Russellville we had quite a few good-byes to say.  We have met some special people during our time in Russellville.

This first picture is a friend we just chanced to meet one day.  We have known Ms. Bonnie for 3 1/2 years. We started talking with her one day as we were walking by her house and we developed a good friendship with her.  She would invite us over a few times a year for  play dates.  She had so many fun toys and the kids LOVED going to her house.  She always sent the kids home with little bags of candy and remembered them at birthdays and Christmas time.  She was the perfect in-town Grandma for the kids.

Ms. Bonnie, Rebecah and Kimball

 A lot of these women were either sisters I visited monthly or who visited me.  Two of them were Rebecah's nursery leaders at church.  It was sweet that so many people came to have lunch with me.

 This last picture is of a sister that I have visited monthly for almost 3 years.  Usually I was her only contact from the church each month.  The kids always enjoyed going to her house because she usually had a large plate of cookies for them and toys.
