Derrick, Traci, Max, and Maggie braved fires and horrendous traffic last Friday on their way up to Ridgecrest. We were so happy they arrived safe and sound!!! Recently they moved to Anaheim, California for Derrick's training with JCPenney. It's REALLY cool to have relatives in the same state, however temporary! :)
Top 12 Favorite DTMM moments, in no particular order:
1. Swimming
2. 24/7 watch on Maggie, who sure liked our stairs! :)
3. Watching Wade and Max play light sabres outside
4. Apples to Apples
5. Pizza Hut night
6. Not one, but two Rook games--it had been a very long time since we'd played, and it was fun!
7. Picking up Max from Sunbeams and hearing him say bye to his new fans: "Bye, little girls!"
8. Derrick and Traci's cool garage sale finds
9. Time at the park
10. Traci earning Best Aunt award after taking Wade and Rhiannon to WalMart--she let them look all over the store and was SUPER patient with them!
11. Ward breakfast on Labor Day
12. More fun Labor Day afternoon, swimming and barbecuing with D, T, M, and M, Sandi, and McLain and Melissa and their kids
I'm sure there were more, but those were some of MY favorites! :) We love our favorite California relatives and had a great time making memories with them!
