Goodbye California

A wonderful evening captured in favorite moments:

-Violet's repeated gasps of excitement at waking up to find so many of her favorite people
-finally being able to articulate co-existing excitement and sadness so that it could be understood
-"Boo-cuetes"
-last minute party guests who came as we were cleaning up, and stayed to help get everything done
-watching careful reasoning convince a 2-year-old that golf clubs and bounce houses should not be combined
-laugh out loud (REALLY loud) inside jokes
-dry ice
-a little voice calling favorite names ("Hopey!" "Ly-Ly" "Matt-chu!" "Kuhs-ten!" "Juu-leuh!" "Ser-ah!" "Gramma!")
-brothers in the bounce house ("big" boy brothers)
-baseball arms driving a golf practice ball farther and higher then anyone knew was possible
-pillowcase dresses
-a small person's explanation of how we are packing boxes to "go to Ana-zone-ah"
-recreated photo scenes from years ago
-being brought things to "take it to our new house"
-super secret spy text messages
