Pedicures with the girls

Our neighbors and friends from across the street had to move this summer. We have lived in this house for 8 years. Chris and I moved here just 2 months after we married and this family has been our neighbors ever since. L. was pregnant with her 3rd child when we moved in and several years later she and I were pregnant again at the same time. L. child A. and Stephanie became fast best friends. They couldn't stay away from each other and all four girls played together constantly. One or the other family always had at any given time 1-2 extra girls. Back in Oct/Nov our friend lost his job and so he has been prayerfully searching for a job ever since. He finally found a job in June in MS. The inevitable was finally upon us and we were faced with the reality that they would really be moving. We tried to allow the girls to spend as much time together as possible. The had lots of sleep overs and lots of play dates. As a final get together of sorts, we decided to take all 4 girls with us for 'pedicures' We went to Tip Toe nails in Evans and proceeded to have our toes done. The 4 girls had their toes painted and then were able to watch a DVD while L. and I had our pedicure. It was a great time and we created an unforgettable memory that day.
