April 18th ended Jena's second year in Provo and the big MOVE-OUT day. Last year, they stayed in the same townhouse so left much of their supplies there over the summer. Next year they are going to live somewhere new. Jena has had a great experience in this townhouse and the neighbors and ward have been great. But I am also excited about the move. Living in new place and being the new person along with hundreds of others is one of the experiences of college and I am glad for the new adventures ahead for her.
I headed down to spend a few hours in the sorting and packing process. Then Gary joined us to load everything else up that didn't fit into my car.

They had a big day that day. After packing up, they decorated cupcakes for a big celebration which included a Nerf gun fight in the park with all of the their volunteers. Then they headed back to the apartment to clean. I missed all of that fun as I had to get back to work.

Jena had a great year and we are so appreciated to Wonderwood for this amazing experience, especially to Vicki and Eric Ehlen and their family who sacrifice so much to make this work.
