Here is Ethan with his buddy Aiden on the day before his last day at school. Goodbyes are always so awkward, it's been weird saying goodbye to friends here.
Our last day here (a Thursday) also happened to be Ethan's class Christmas party so it was a good day to have as his last!
Hailey and I took the bus to Bournemouth to check out their Christmas market and do some shopping. On the bus we met this lady and her 1.5yr. old that were heading to a "Baby Disco". Haha, too funny-wish we had time to at least peek our head in to see what this was all about (or what I envisioned it looked like).
Hailey wanted to try on some hats as well:
I meant to get a silver knit hat with a fur Pom on top but I forgot to go back to Oasis to buy it.
This guy and his sons or music students (I'm guessing) playing Christmas music were so heartwarming. Gave them my last change.
Neat little market stalls.
Hailey was mesmerized by the Nutcrackers:
They even had this huge bar they set up in the Bournemouth shopping area:
I was surprised to see the named Haley featured on a stocking (because it doesn't seem to be a popular name in the UK):
An ice rink near the pavilion:
Ethan's class made him a special goodbye card with minions on it because they knew he likes minions a lot:
Really sweet notes and drawings from each of the kids:
Margie and her sister and her husband stopped by to say hi and goodbye. Was fun to meet her sister (that looks very similar), that I had heard about. So weird that we are leaving tomorrow.
Feeling very grateful for the opportunity we had to live and travel oversees, for my awesome hardworking husband and flexible kids. And excited to get home and partake in all of the Christmas festivities and see friends and family.
