The Lasts

Part of our moving to TN is saying goodbye to people we love and places where memories were made. Sitting by the beach and watching the sunset, being Mary Poppins to the families I worked for, learning to use a potter’s wheel are a few of the things we will miss from our SoCal location.

Mostly we will miss being in the same state as some of our kids and grandcuties. That is a topic for another blog post :~D

Today marks a biggie. Today is John’s LAST day working for Western Concrete Pumping. He has worked for them for the last several years and we have been thankful for the job. At a time when many people were deemed non-essential, the construction industry still moved forward.

But..with every new chapter, there is a closing of an old one. We are packing up and thinking of all that needs to be done before the moving container arrives. It seems like our days are filled with LASTS.

I would be lying if I said it was an easy decision. It hasn’t.

But I would also be lying if I told you I wasn’t getting excited about this new adventure. We are leaving so many things behind. Some good. Some not so good. Some easy. Some not so easy.

As the LASTS are finished – we will be starting on a whole new list of FIRSTS.

What a great way to end this crazy year.

Feel free to follow our journey as we move from California to Tennessee.

Yours always, Marci

    Oh, my! I loved knowing there was a possibility I’d see you on one of your trips to northern California. However, I know you’ve got adventures ahead of you. Wishing you health, wealth, love and the time to enjoy them. Safe journey. Gloria

    Hi Marcie, my sister Debbie Thomas suggested I google you since I live just over the bridge at Sumner County and Wilson County in TN. Welcome to Gallatin. I hope you get settled in and enjoy living in TN. I will be glad to help you in any way I can. Judy

welcome It is hard to talk about me, without talking about us!    The Seither Family.  John and I have been married for over twenty five years. From the day we said “I do”, it has been quite an adventure.  One of the biggest things people notice about our family is the size. Yes, there are six kids, proof that  God has a sense of humor. I tell people that ask if we are done with six. “No” I promptly reply. “We were done at four! But the last two were too cute to send back.” Read More
