With p-day being on Saturday, when morning class was over at noon, we (Jacob, Mitchell, Rog and I) decided to go down to Depoe Bay to visit and stay with Grandpa and Grandma Cornilles. We had fun playing foosball, ping-pong, card games and just talking. While Rog and Mitchell watched the BYU basketball game, Jacob played the piano and spent time with grandparents. Brooklyn was unable to come, but Ethan came down Saturday night, after work, too.
On Sunday, we spent quite a bit of time sharing stories about Porter Rockwell and other early members of The Church. Then we were able to watch Mitchell give a talk in his Young Single Adult ward – in Lake Oswego. (One of the perks of on-line church - we can watch other wards’ meetings through Zoom.) Then we played more games; Sequence, Wizard, Scum, and Probability. It was a very unique game of Probability. Jacob not only won, but never even lost one die. When has that ever happened?
Despite the wind and drizzle, we took the opportunity to walk out on the rocks one last time. I was wearing a skirt and boots and was going to change, but Jacob started leaving, so I just went as I was. I can’t say that I have ever walked out to the end of the rocks in a skirt and boots before. But, Jacob needed a companion – so I did and thankfully I didn’t slip and fall.
We drove home Sunday evening and then spend the morning on Monday packing up Jacob’s suitcases. Just one more day of classes and the MTC was over.
