Of course we will never be done having great times with Brock, but we are all excited to see what his next two years in Zimbabwe will bring. I think growth and maturity are a given. So, we will party again, and hard, but this was our last weekend all together for a while.
Zach was working on a class project that required a lot of filming. Zach enjoyed Brock's artistic eye, so, our Saturday was spent filming around Fairfield and taking pictures in this wonderful field.
The best looking directors and film crew.
The latter part of the day was spent in the kitchen getting food ready for the big farewell party Sunday afternoon. To keep us cheerful Brett poured us all shots of apple beer.
After the party in the kitchen we headed out to the yard to burn the giant wood pile. It took a while to get it going because of the rains the days before, but when it finally went, it went big. We had a good time roasting marshmallows and watching Brock and Tate entertain themselves.
Sunday was a bitter sweet day full of good food, visiting and good-byes. We all had a great time mingling with cousins and friends. We were even privileged enough to see the Haka performed by our friend Clint. (video below).
We sure love Brock and will miss his visits, but we are so proud and excited of the work he will be doing. The people of Zimbabwe will be so lucky to have him.
We sure love you Elder Allen!
