High points:
  • Our family’s nice long, but not too long drive to Memphis.
  • Finding out my husband’s photographs on the DCB DVD were nominated for a dove award
  • Staying in a hotel, eating dinner out and going to a basketball game all very inexpensively due to deal searching, and coupons.  
  • Watching Bobby Jackson on the Kings steal the ball and shoot 3 pointers.  (I’m glad he’s back on the Kings!)
  • Watching Blue glued to the game, Cooper dancing to all the music, and listening to Aiden ponder about things like, the grizzly mascot being a gorrilla, and wondering how gorrillas get jerseys?  Why do the dancing girls not have shirts or pants on?  
  • The Kings winning the game. 
  •  Free breakfast.  
  • Safe drive home in the rain.  

Low points:

  •  My injured back, (from jumping in the air, trying to touch the ceiling while also pulling my knees up- for a workout, I don’t just randomly do that) hurt really bad the whole time, and the pain increased due to walking around downtown, and up to our seats.  I had to find heat wraps and aleve to help me out.  
  • Blue started coughing through the night, and hasn’t stopped yet. 
  • Stayed up late and didn’t sleep well due to said back pain, and coughing.  

However:

  • Getting away with my family and spending concentrated time together was incredible.  We talked, laughed, bonded and rested like we all needed to.  My husband said it was one of his favorite birthday’s we’ve celebrated together, and that makes me very happy! 
  • Happy S.S.S.

    I’m glad you all enjoyed your trip. Its nice to get away sometimes. If you ever come to Memphis again let me know, I will be happy to help with directions or by letting you know the best areas to stay.

    I can imagine the pain of walking those stairs at the Forum when you were already experiencing back pain.

    I know Brody had to have been extra happy with the birthday gift since the Kings won. That and the fact that he was nominated for a Dove award.

    So glad you enjoyed your time together.

    …and that Sac won. We watched the game on tv and looked for you in the audience!

    I love taking trips with my family ~ short or long ~ it’s always good.

    Wise questions.
