Farewell to the Backus Family

So, here is my first blog dedicated the Backus Family. They came to our wedding even though they didn't know us and since them we have became close friends. I have seen the ups and downs of this family as well as they have seen ours.

First, Mike the "dad": Big muscle man with a strong spiritual heart.

Second, Carolyn the "mom": A spirit that is undescribable, funny and can handle anything thrown to her. Mom of 8 amazing kids who all have different attributes.

Darryn, aka "D1": Athletic in soccer, will win the fight; but not start it! (I miss losing my voice at her soccer games)

Daniel: Tall, loves playing any video games, my son looks upto him.

Del: Athletic in volleyball and cheer! Great singer!

Donnie: Reliable

Dru-Shea: The 'blondie' that reminds me of me when I was young.

Devan: Loves to watch you

Dakato, aka "Dak": My favorite.

Dane: The destroyer.

This is just a little bit about each and as the next 8 weeks before they leave to go on a new adventure across the country to W Virginia. I will truly miss them! I love them all!
