{Acacia Ward Pool Party}

One of the best parts of living in Henderson is our wonderful Acacia Ward family.  

Growing up in the church I have often heard the use of the term "ward family" but never fully appreciated what it meant.  I always loved my ward and some of my best friends growing up were in the Riverdale ward with me. 

But when I moved away from Utah I left behind my family.  And so "ward family" means just that - family whom I depend on for so much.  And now I feel like I know what it really means.

So I really, really, really love the ward here.  Like, a lot.  

One of the best parts of this ward is it seems like there is always something going on.  This past week we enjoyed a relaxing evening at the pool.  Calvin swam with Dad, Mom and Wes hung around and chatted with our friends.  We loved it!

  1. Calvin is learning to love the water & it looks like Daddy is learning to also. Our Serviceman's Ward in Belgium was our best memory of Church family. We are still intertwined with many of them, after almost 40 years.
