Farewell Charlotte Mogensen!
Renee and Charlotte have a longer history than the rest of us at Rio Lindo Adventist Academy. From Denmark, to Philly, to Michigan, to California! Four years of friendship and it doesn't look like it's going to end any time soon!
From the left: Andrew, Renee, & Mogi smiling for the camera!

Israel and Mogi saying bye took a break to take a photo! All smiles here!
