Leaving Washington :(

I have hated saying goodbyes for the past 5 weeks. It started when I had to say goodbye to my friends leaving for school in Idaho, Washington D.C., and many other places. I had very VERY limited time in the last couple weeks to say goodbye to everybody else. So here are some pictures of people I have had to say good bye to. :(

The Mechams. :( This one was really REALLY hard. Those kids were part of me and they left for Texas at the end of July. (Ava, Kiara, Blake and Mercedes)

The Cottam Kids, this is only 3 of 5. I didn't have a picture of all of them. (Maci, Kimball, and Baden)

The Ekins, Emily, Maddie, and Ellie. 

Cassie and Kim, long-time lunch buddies :)

Autumn and Spencer, those kids are TOO cute!

Jake, Tommy, Ben, and Bella. These kids and I had a very special relationship. When it was time for them to say  goodbye Ben was very very cuddly with me and would tell me how much he loved me and how much he would miss me. It was all too bitter sweet. 

My puppies. Sophie and Oliver. This too was insanely hard. Living with Melissa and Brady  allows me to still have a dog for now, but I was reminiscing about these two the other day and had a pretty hard evening after that.  

Jeanelle!!! This was a very sad goodbye. She has been such an amazing role model to me for the past 6 years. She is such a strong example and fantastic friend who is always there for me. Love you!

Mitchell :( another really hard goodbye. He is leaving on his mission on February 8th for Porto Allegre Brazil.

Now for a few HELLOS!!! I only have a few pictures from Utah and none from work yet... but that will come soon :) 

I said hello to the VALLEY. Oh how I love living in Utah valley. 

Isn't it just gorgeous??

And I have said hello to crazy dog Sadie. She is a bundle of energy that is for sure!

She kinda reminds me of Bilbo sometimes. Another dog I miss dearly :(

I have also said hello to a new life at doTERRA. It is the most awesome company ever. I have already made some great new friends there. I would talk about some of the other fantastic happenings at doTERRA... but I don't know who will be reading this blog so some of the information is friend only! But YAY!

Another hello is to a life with Melissa and Brady. We work together, eat together, live together, carpool together but only for a little while... cause my next hello is my new APARTMENT!!! I am so excited!! I move in Saturday, so expect a post a little while after I move in :)

Here's to some goodbyes but some even better hellos!!!!!
