Mary Ann and Ryan left for Colorado early this morning! I crawled out of my bed last night at 11:15 after crying off layers of mascara and drove to give her one last hug goodbye! I bawled all the way there and ended up bawling in her arms! Luckily we got talking and laughing, so by the time I left at 1 in the morning, my crying headache was gone!
It is just a day that I never thought was going to happen! To date the hardest time in my life, was Mary Ann's mission! Ever had a broken arm, or leg, or BOTH............that is how I felt for 18 months! But as we face the bitter truth I am grateful that it's only Colorado, that I can still call her everyday, and grateful for Skype! My hope will never change, to live nearby each other, and have our kids be best buds! I will miss the Wal-mart runs, someone finishing my sentences, and reading me like a book! I will miss movie quote sentences, the lunch dates, and the laughing side-aches! I will miss her everyday, and learn to love the drive to Colorado even more! Mar I am Happy for you to feel settled and have life get as normal as it can! LOVES YOU!

I think I saw you the day after this! I love how close you are to your sisters, and it is fun to get to see pictures of then and your cute family. Hop on over to our blog if you get a chance--- jeffandwhit.blogspot.com!
So we just got the internet. FINALLY! I miss you already! Can't wait 'til next week when you get here.
I can't even think about her being gone yet without crying. She was always that friend that was just there right at that point that I needed her.
Sheesh, this sounds like a funeral eulogy.
Mary Ann, get your kiester back to Utah. We need you.
Yes, Julie, I lurk on your blog occasionally. :-)
I can't believe how long it's been since I lurked on your blog--sorry! Sydnee is SO big!! Wow. And adorable. So Mary Ann is out here? Really? We should get together. Hope she's loving CO... we do. Hope you're doing well!
