FCA Senior Trip

We made it! All FCA Seniors home safe and sound. What a great trip. Not once did we ever have to worry about ANYTHING going on that wasn’t supposed to be going on. It’s just not their style – or character.

No sneaking out or trying participate in something they weren’t supposed too. No, they were in every night before curfew, always asked first if they could do something, courteous, helpful, fun, thoughtful, and grateful. Oh there were some hi jinks going on but nothing but a closet & scary noises getting some heart rates up.

I couldn’t be prouder of a group of people. They are ready. Almost but not quite and it’s not about them. Class of 2012… Well done. Well done.

FCA Senior Trip: Update 4

We wake up to a completely clean kitchen/ living room. All the food is packed & ready to go. What an amazing group of people.

Yesterday was go karts & Put Put, lunch @ Back Porch for one group and Goat Feathers for another. Afternoon was naps, playing in the Gulf coast surf, and laughing. Dinner was JoJo chicken and shrimp. Then a walk on the beach @ sunset with the moon & stars rising & popping out everywhere. Pictures and more laughing.

This class of 2012 is getting ready to launch well. Close to being done but not yet. Hot seat last night was Brown, Brooks, Boyd, & last but certainly not least the one and only Thomas B Berg.

The house is quite now but will soon come alive with the hustle of packing and “this went way to fast” comments. So does four years. “can we stay another week”, no we can’t just like we can’t stay another four years. “but we’re not ready to go” oh yes you are ready to go. You are going to do well.

Heading home much like heading into the next phase of life. Got to do it. Packed and ready.
