Moving, Part One

Moving was so busy that it requires a two parter blog posting.

I know, there has been some blog silence but for the past week I have been saying good-bye, then travelling west.

A week ago yesterday, which would have been Friday, 9/7, there was a fabulous good-bye/jewelry party for me. Cathy was so nice to host it,

and Angie was our Silpada gal. I love me some jewels.

Isn’t that nice???

There was also delicious cake.

Lot’s of friends showed up, and Laura took the candid shots-well, this one wasn’t that candid.

I took my time posing with all my friends (this was only the beginning)

Me with:

Jules (my good friend and front desk gal!)

 

Kim B (no explanation for Kim)

Ali (was at the county when I started)

Rachael (I went to her wedding)

Kris (my replacement at the county)

The always smiling Mary Pat

Becky, PHN extrodinaire (why do I look so shell shocked-maybe because of the zillions of pictures?)

Lyndsey (spelled her name right)

And a candid with Nancy (best e-mails EVER)

And then they took pictures with each other-

 

That’s Laura P in the middle-somehow I didn’t get a picture with her (this is a great picture!)

Kris and Dawn, another co-worker

And this is Amy B (with Kim), Financial Worker and funniest human on the planet. Made me laugh out loud many times-many many times during the work day.

Cathy, Kris, and Dawn, who will be working together now.

 

 

There were the candid group shots too-

Here’s Tiffini with Dawn-we saw Tiff at Ragnar too

  

Here’s Leah, my cubicle neighbor, on the right with Nancy and me.

 Did I mention presents? Kim and Laura came up with this one!

 

Great picture of Kim and I, especially my crazy eyes! I was actually laughing for about 10 minutes.

Can you read that?

Knitting in meetings

…..because falling asleep

is just rude

Pretty good one.

Nancy thought it was funny too, and tried to pose with the now famous bag, but I think Leah thwarted her with the Silpada catalogue.

I got cards and a book and some maragarita mix (with the booze in it-Thanks Amy-drank it in Montana-but more about that later)

Just a lot of nice things and good wishes.

So, thanks to everyone, I’ll miss you all!

And thanks Laura, for all the great pictures.

Stay tuned for part 2.
