OUR NEXT STOP

Was at Paul's in Danville, California, outside of Oakland. We left Tripp's around 6:30 in the morning and arrived at Paul's about 4:30 or 5 with a few stops on the way. They were all anxiously awaiting us. They had moved from the house they had been renting to an apartment, and 2 weeks after that move, Paul was asked to move his family to Southern California, with his work, and that move will be made by him next week, and the family will join him when school is out in May. He will be home every weekend and Laura will join him for a week the last of the month to find housing for the family. The company that Paul and Tripp work for is a great company - Aggreko, and have found the "Thompson boys" a great asset to their company - (makes us proud). Harley, Paul and Seth went to a pro basketball game on Friday night between the Golden State Warriors and the Utah Jazz. Of course, you can just picture Harley being the only Jazz fan there and in the end when they won - Seth decided he would change his mind. They had a great time. The girls and little ones enjoyed a movie a home. Like last year, we had some rain during our stay, but that was okay. We were there to enjoy time with this little family and was given the royal treatment. I made sausage gravy and blackberry jam for them twice, at the beginning and end of our visit. The kids called it Moma Tom's jam. We had a great time. Again, thanks for those memories.


Moma Tom and Preston. He was smiling and trying to tell me so many things. It was fun.

Cooper is trying to help Papa Tom with some paperwork. This was such a cute picture, but his smile and hugs will send you soaring.
