The Pierce Family: Farewell Fourth Years!

Farewell Fourth Years!

We have 25 SCO families in our ward- six of us are in our last and final year (HURRAY!)- four of us will be moving next month to do two extern rotations in different states. Lant's decided to throw a Farewell pool party with the other SCO families in our ward.

FOURTH YEARS

Williamson - Heiner - Lambert

Lant - Nevers

During the party we ate some delicious food. Eric and I made some homemade root beer. Whoever made these yummy kabob's... I love you! They were heavenly.

Kinsley jumped off of the diving board!!! Okay, I lied, she got dragged off.

She did have a blast playing on the stairs and in the purple boat with her friend Louisa.

Eric thought it would be fun to jump off the diving board and land his head in Aila's swim tube. I told him it was a bad idea.

I just wish he would have listened to me. He never listens. He POPPED the center tube! (I don't know what he THOUGHT would happen.....) Not to worry- he still had fun. He tore out the center tube and made it so he could dive completely through it.

We are SO excited that we are in our last year of school and we are excited to move closer to our families during Eric's extern rotations! But at the same time, we are sad to be moving away from all of our new found friends. They will be missed.

“I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk’s lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor’s children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone’s garden. I want to be there with children’s sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.”
