Big, big, BIG farewell party from our Pitt Mews neighbors before we left. Neighbor Pilar insisted and organized the whole thing. We were kind of a party planning team, so it was bittersweet.
My DC bestie, Sus helped too. She made Facebook cookies with custom status updates just for us.
AND, knowing my love for sushi.... a giant "sushi cake." It was all sweet and even the little sushi rolls were coconut rice, papaya, and mango. Delicious (as always).
Ugh, I'm going to miss that girl.... and her delicious treats BUT I have lost five pounds since we left.... ; )
The spread.... many dishes from PITA HOUSE!
Molly walked up to each and every one of these men during the party saying, "Daddy?" and asking them to pick her up. Which they would. It was only upon getting higher than the blue shirt (like to their face), did she realize the man was not, in fact, her daddy. Well, okay, one of them was.
Something to keep the kids (and Neighbor Peter, age 60) busy...
James gave Mae an uncomfortably long goodbye kiss.
Neighbor Cheryl (troublemaker!) brought out the water balloons and water guns...
... which James (and Molly?) loved.
Hardest move to date.

No mattter where you are the Coynes leave everlasting great friends, neighbors and memories.
On to the next stop and more friends, new school for James and perhaps new playmates for Molly.
Do I need to mail you baked goods? Don't EVEN be talking about 5 pounds!
