Our First House

Since I was in San Antonio this past week, I thought I'd go by the house we lived in for the three years that we were there (1977-80). It was the first house we ever bought and it was brand new. This is the house we lived in when Megan was born. Two shots, one closeup and one from across the street.

When we lived there there were no trees at the street and only one in the front yard, the one on the left side of the yard about the middle of the lawn (which you can't see).

Enjoy.

25 Year Award

I recently received my 25 year service award at our national convention. It was held in San Antonio so that enabled Bruce, Heather, Megan and Parker to come down for the presentation. Another special circumstance was that my boss, Nick, is president of the organization (CoSIDA) this year and was the one presenting the award.

Enjoy the pictures. Parker was asleep in his stroller for the picture.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

While the WV crew was here I snapped this picture with Grampy and six of the nine grandchildren. On the couch with Grampy are (l-r) Kelsie, Landry, Ashton and Kaylie. Brodie and Jon are behind the couch.

Chris was working, Parker couldn't miss school (Megan was on call and couldn't get the day off) and Brianna decided not to make the trip to Texas. We missed them.

West Virginia Kin

Jennifer, Kaylie, Kelsie and Kevin made trek recently from West Va. to visit us. The three days passed quickly and a good time was had by all.

They arrive around 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday and after they rested a bit (from the 18 hour drive) we went to Waco to visit my mom. Later that night we all met at Cheddars for dinner, compliments of Ninny.

On Thursday we loaded up two cars and headed for Frisco. Spent the day with Erin and her crew, swimming and eating.

Friday was spent shopping and a dinner at our house.

Thought it was cute when they gave Parker a cupcake, enjoy the picture.

They left to go home this morning, travel safe. We enjoyed having you!!!

PS - BJ we missed you.!!!!
