Well, we're checked out of our apt and checked into a hotel. Ben is taking his FINAL exam here on SXM. I'm picking him up at 4 and that'll be his last time inside AUC for a LOOONG while. We've had a VERY busy week and here are some pics of the good-bye's we've had to say. 
Here is Rachel on our hotel room balcony. It now feels like we are on vacation! (not for Ben of course, he's in the middle of the 8 hour exam)
Here is Rachel and Kimber down by the pool...oh how we are going to miss her!
Holdyn with the noodle.
Holdyn playing chess...or her version, which is organizing the pieces in a straight line.
We sold ALL of the rest of the stuff at the 5th semesteer sale. Heather and Erica brought by some life saving cookies and drinks to say good-bye. Thanks girls!!
You know you've neglected your 2 year old long enough when her diaper falls apart from pee... yes, I'm a bad parent!
Here is Kimber chillin by the pool at Arbor Estates. We had a last farewell dinner with a bunch of friends. 
Here is Cesar teaching Holdyn how to swim.
Candace and Natalie.... we will sure miss you two!
Holdyn (Again) in the water.
We were in charge of the Navajo Taco's... they went great and we had enough to feed an army!
Rachel, Me, and Ashley C. with Kimber @ the Pineapple Pete's Farewell Lunch. 
Me with Ashley R. and Kimber saying out sad good-bye's
Here is The midwife... we had one last appt and I had to get a picture of her with Kimber. She was Great!! We will definitely remember that birthing experience forever!
Finally, here are the other gals from AUC's Spouses Club who are leaving. We sure have had a great experience here on SXM and will remember it always! Thanks to you all who we have been able to cross paths with. Good-bye for now!

So glad you had some GREAT friends to help pass the time by!
Your not a bad parent...I have never seen a diaper do that!
Can't wait to see you guys!
It looks like you guys will have loads of memories from your experience there that you will always look back on.
That picture of Holden with her diaper falling off cracks me up! She is so dang cute!
So glad your on your way back! Be safe and hug those sweet girls!
The Cluffs will definitely be missed! St. Maarten won't be the same without you guys!
That makes me sad! We're going to miss you!
How exciting to come home but how sad to leave all those good friends! Good luck in your travels home!
Congrats on finishing such a huge chapter in your life. I'm sure your families will be thrilled to have you closer to home. I was going through a stack of pool towels today (with the pool we regularly get some 'left behinds') and there was one from St. Martens which also folds up into a little backpack. Do you want me to save it for Holdyn? It just somehow seemed appropriate:)
That is a cool chess board. Funny diaper picture! 8 HOUR EXAM?? HOLY CRAP! Good luck with the move-- and the goodbyes, it's hard to leave, even though you're going to be having lots of luxuries back. :)
Cute pictures, I am sad for you to leave but sOO excited to see you tomorrow for your hair appointment. It looks like you had a great time and are looking forward to what life brings you next.
You're a brave soul! Where are you headed now?
That went by fast for me. Ha!
