It's been just over a month scene our dear friends have moved away and started a new chapter in their lives. We did do much with them and as much as they feel empty,lonely and struggling with the new changes it brought them, we are struggling with out them here with us! The kids were in school together, we drove care pool together, the girls were best friends, we played many sports through the city together and always enjoyed each others company! They are the kind of friend's no one could NEVER get tired off...the friends who you could ask any favor, if it was hard or inconvenient they were always be sooo willing! They would bend over backwards to help you out. They were always looking for ways to serve their fellow man. From moving....(us all) countless times, to helping out with children, to running to there house to turn down the air, to sewing quits and crib bedding, from cleaning house, to just coming over to help fold a load of laundry, to hanging out with your kids when they didn't have a dad around, to taking on 8 kids @ 5:30 am so mom's could go running, to waking up in the middle of the night needing help while kids.. while others headed to the E.R., from many girls nights with pedicures and watching favorite t.v. shows together, from lunch dates, when feeling stressed out she just knows what to say, from learning how to be a better cook, cooking wheat bread and homemade jam, from using a pressure cooker and realizing how much time it truly saves, from learning to work out together and so much more...
I could go on and on but it does bring me to tears( I guess happy ones) to now they are happy and to know that this move has been hard on us all! Not only for me but my children as well! We are trying to find the right time to come out to TX and reunite again! WE love you and know that you have played a huge part in our lives for just the short time we knew you! You will truly be missed and for sure those shoes won't be filled the same way! Good luck Dr. Pearce, put that hard work to good use!

April, you are so sweet about your friends, they seem like great people to have had around! You were a great friend to me when you lived here for a short time. By the way... I drove past Canterbury place yesterday and got a little sad. I miss you! I really wish we had our friendship back here in Utah! Your so cute!
