My luncheon table. I am so proud of all the food!! |
Before everyone started their summer, I hosted a Hello-Goodbye party. I invited all of my friends. When everyone arrived they were given a name tag which either read Hello or Goodbye. If a guest was moving they wore the Goodbye tag and if they were not, they wore the Hello tag. I have so many friends moving this year which is a little depressing for the people who are staying in Belgium. I wanted this party to be a celebration of friendship, a chance to say goodbye to all my friends and finally a chance for the people who were not moving to connect with friends.

You throw a beautiful party. The goodbyes were hard and too frequent when we were a USMC family.
