Goodbyes...

Sunday was such a hard day, I cant remember the last time I cried that much. I had to say goodbye or better yet "see you later" to all my friends from church. They have all become like family and I am so sad to be leaving them. If they all had their way I would be staying here forever! I said goodbye to all my primary kids, hardest thing ever! If you know me then you know I get attached to kids quite easily. Then to the Rassmussen's who were nice enough to host a going away BBQ for me. It was lots of fun and also very hard. I have gotten so close to everyone who was there, they really have been my family while I have been away. Let's just say I will be making many visits back to NY! Thanks everyone for the great friendships and fun memories! I will miss you all tons!

Astoria

Saturday we went into Astoria, in Queens, and had lots of fun! We started at Neptune Diner for dinner and had some delicious Greek platters. I had a gyro platter which was pretty much way yummy! After dinner we walked around Asotria, for those of you who have never heard of it, its kind of like a Greek version of Chinatown and Little Italy. Anyway.. we walked around and found another little cafe for dessert. I love this place and being able to try all sorts of new food whenever I go out. I am going to miss it so so so much!!
