I don't think we could have picked a better day to move our grandparents than on March 10th. It was the prettiest day we have seen all year. I think we all might have gotten some sun as well.
Ok, ok I'm getting a bit ahead of myself. So my Grandparents bought a new house. It's still in the Provo area; actually it’s about three streets maybe four streets away from their old house. It's in this nice area that will plow the snow away and keep your yard maintained. Those are great benefits and all but probably the best thing is that it is only one house away from Aunt Fran and Uncle Eric's house. (As a side note with that, yesterday we had our big Family Home Evening and I think the Jensen family cars took up like the whole street.)
So we got to help and serve our Grandparents by moving everything from one house to the other. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN. I saw that and I actually mean it. Even though it got hot at some points in the day, and I found out I am actually really not strong at all, and we had some situations where we had to be very creative in moving items.....it was fantastic and so much fun. We got it all done in six hours.
I will admit that today it's not so much fun as I am sore and achy parts on my body, and I didn't even lift that much so I can only imagine those who were lifting the hefty stuff.
It was such a wonderful day, so worth every second of it. It was one of those circling the wagon moments. I know it was service, but it was so fun and I think more than anything it was great cousin time. It was so fun to see everyone and talk to them and share those little moments with them. It makes me miss the old days when we all lived near to each other and would play all day in grandma's yard in Farmington. MAN WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!
I am adding a bunch of Photos so I hope you enjoy. I hope it bring a smile to your face as you look through them.
Yours Truly
Jenessa
