Goodbyes. They stink.

 We had way too many goodbyes to make.  And I hate goodbyes.  I know I am leaving, and you know I am leaving, so why do we both need to make a big deal about it and cry? We did do some formal ones though.

We went out and enjoyed Mongolian BBQ one last time.

We went to Sako's one last time to enjoye their amazing BLT's for lunch. Missy, the owner, was sad to hear we were leaving.  I'm sad that my selfie is so blurry.

 Missy gave me this kokeshi doll as a goodbye gift.  Actually, she handed it to Josh and joked that it was his new girlfriend.

 Delaney had to say goodbye to her good friend, Serenity.

Delaney wanted to go to "The Very Berry Soup Factory" for lunch with the sister missionaries, for our last goodbye.  She enjoyed it very much.

 I got the corn chowder.  It was tasty.

 Goodbye pictures withthe Sisters.  This is Sister Lofthouse.

And Sister Vogelsburg. I love our missionaries.

We had to say a temporary goodbye to Levi.  He is staying with the next door neighbor until we have a house and are settled and can go back to get him.

But the neighbors are fostering baby kittens and those were more fawned over than the poor, confused dog.

Last trip to Soba Express for dinner.  Saying goodbye to the yummy orange chicken. 

 My darling friend Steph.  Saying goodbye to my great friends sucks.  And I have several really awesome friends here. 

 Rylee's friend Milly tracked us down to the Terminal and she showed up for one last run around at the USO.  We will miss Milly and her family.  Here are Delaney and Rylee with Milly and Andie.

Getting on our flight to Okinawa, and here is our plane to take us away.  Goodbye Iwakuni!
