Spring 2009

Well I hope all have survived the wonderful rain we had this spring. We are glad for sunshine at our house!



We have had a busy spring thus far. It started by taking a road trip to Californian in March. Best Buy had an achievers event and the store Brian works for was fortunate to achieve the goal and receive a free trip to Anaheim, CA. Brian could bring 1 guest free but other had to be paid for. So, we drove to save on plane tickets for Brice and Cadence and Best Buy reimburse us the our plane tickets to pay for our gas and hotel rooms to stay in. Since we drove we was fortunate to not only see the secenery of the west but visit with Brian's brother and Aunt Linda, and distant cousin of mine, Kenneth Gray. Included in the Best Buy package was a 4 night, 4 day stay at the Marriot near Disney Land, day trip to Santa Monica, 2 day trip to Disneyland and California Adventures. We did have few Best Buy function to attend but that included a fun night at Dave and Busters (free dinner and games), a concert with a band called Chicken Feet (free dinner again), volunteer work sending care packages to Iraq, and one last night of awards (free dinner and free babysitter). The kids had a blast and experience many different things. Brian's brother and family was able to spend 1 day at Disneyland with us. So Cadence and Brice enjoyed part of that day with their cousins. After the 4 day BB event we spent 2 days with Brian's brother and family. Brian's Aunt Linda graciously let us stay at her house 3 nights as well. It was a good time. On the way home, Brice did get sick and we ended up stopping at the Ardmore, OK ER. He is doing ok now but we are still not sure what he was sick from.



After our trip it was Easter and then the start of softball and soccer pratice and games for Cadence. We have also planted a garden, which we hope is survived all the rain.
