And, they're off!!

Remember these guys....?
Well, you won't be seeing them around in any of our pictures for a while (who knows how long, really). They've up and left us and MOVED TO AUSTRALIA!!! Honestly?! Why not American Fork or even Brigham City, or St. George? Maybe even Florida, or California? I could handle them being out of the state, maybe....But out of the country? And half way across the world for that matter!! *Sigh*

We're definitely going to miss them. In fact, we miss them already!! Luckily we just downloaded Skype so we can see and talk to them over the internet. The problem will probably be the time difference. They're pretty much 16ish hours ahead of us time-wise, so it may be a challenge to line up times so we can chat. We'll see how it goes. Anyway, here are some pics of them leaving us....

J left first, on September 25th, to get things ready for T & R to follow

The boys

Then, T & R left today. T's mom and brother went with them to help with the travel & visit Aussieland for a few days before coming back.

R and her cousin
Me and R
(We had to bribe her with using my chap-stick in order to get this picture of us. She's a chap-stick maniac thanks to me. Sorry T!)
R & some more of her cousins
Last sight of them, and Mike showing off his cute pink luggage ;)
Have a safe flight, you guys!! We love you!! Come back to us as soon as you can!

P.S. If any of you faithful readers feel compelled to donate to the "D & K Australian Vacation Fund," we'll gladly accept donations of any amount :)

What a great thing for them but I'm sure it's hard on you and Darwin! Just look at the bright side, though, you always have someone to stay with there. :)
