I've said for a while now that I don't really have 3 sons, I have 4. Caleb's best friend, Alec, has been like a son to me for a few years now. Every time I turned around he was always at our house. It's ok though; I truly enjoyed having him there. Anyway, he and his family left today; actually they are boarding the shuttle as I type. It was really hard to say good-bye to him and his family. I am also friends with Alec's mom. We've played Bunco together for a few years now and we even made a trip to Poland together recently. I have no doubt that we will see them again since the are going to the same area as my sister. Plus, we are about halfway if they travel home to Iowa. They know they have a place to stay.
Needless to say, I'm really not looking forward to the "good-bye" part of this week. I'll be sure to have the tissues ready.
Otherwise, Allen has everything done. I think he has one place to go today and then his final out next Tuesday. So until then, we're just hanging around. I'm getting my hair trimmed this morning and I have a massage this afternoon. I have a gift certificate I'm finally getting around to using. We also have the last of our boxes to mail today. Guess I could also do some school work.
I'll try to put some more pictures up soon.

Oh man, so its finally down to the last week. It is always so hard to say good-bye, you don't just make friends in the military, you inherit family. Good luck with this last week, and God bless.
I'm not even there for you to leave behind and I'm sad! :(
