Life in the South - Part. . .1 1/2?
Our move to Greer three years ago was Part 1, and the move to VA will be Part 2, so that leaves us with a 2-3 week stay in Easley as Part 1 1/2. :-) Life has been a bit hectic as we (I) have been packing the house. I have the moving thing down to a science by now, but then - - - I have never liked that subject! I am starting to get very nostalgic and emotional as I say good bye to a nice little house that we have come to love. Thankfully I am not as bad as I used to be and do not plan to kiss the walls as I did as an 8 year old girl when we moved to SD. Nevertheless, the "goodbyes" have started with -
places we have come to love,
and people we have come to know. I get all teary eyed just thinking of all these "last time" visits we have with friends. . . 
And for your viewing pleasure, I have included a pic of our temporary house which is such a blessing to have! It is furnished, so all of our belongings (minus clothing and dishes) can stay in boxes as we wait for our house in VA to get finished. The one catch is that we will have no Internet. Sniff. Sniff! I am not sure how inclined I will be to try the whole library Internet thing. . . I may just have to bum some time at friends' computers if I think I am going batty from lack of blogs and FB. :-) So, dear people, don't have too much fun without me, and I will be faithful to post pics of our new life in VA as soon as we are a bit settled.

Middle boy gets his dues.
We had the guest of honor,
the photographer,
the "place,"
cute little boys,
beautiful little girl,
friends,
family,
"piggy" faces,
and silly faces.
We had lots of concentration,
recitations,
but Ethan had the most to "perform."
In the end he had what was coming - a Kindergarten diploma!
We had food,
laughter with pals,
gifts,
and more gifts.

The evening ended with a few tries at the ring game - a favorite of the Castle boys.
