Amanda, Meet "THE Neighbors!"

So this trip was a complete ROLLERCOASTER of emotions. First, Amanda got to meet SO many people. Then, we would have a great time with dear friends and then have to leave. I was crying in the car as we drove away from St. Joes. But, just a few hours later, complete BLISS as we got to introduce the Zito family (our neighbors, and WONDERFUL friends, two different times before moving to China)

Maddie, Joey and Krista all came running out to greet us...well Amanda!
Maddie and Joey had a present for Amanda right away! Lucky Girl!
They made her a panda build-a-bear that says "We love you Amanda" in their sweet voices. She LOVES it!
Kisses!
And Krista, hostess extraordinaire, had the most delicious homemade margaritas ready to go!

Joey and Maddie were full of hugs and kisses for Amanda. It was absolutely precious!

Joe got home from work and found the little toddler swing for Amanda and put it up.

Amanda loved it!
