After hearing the news about Ken on Tuesday Dad, Mom, Sarah, and I left that night to drive to Texas to spend time with Vickie, Brenna, and Garrett and be there for the service on Thursday. It is about a 24 hour drive from our house to the Ghents and things get a little interesting after being in a vehicle for so many hours....

Eating at Whataburger for dinner, obviously it was one of the more exciting things to happen!


Going on a walk with Brenna Friday morning.


Vickie requested pictures of the flowers from the service and I was more than happy to take some.

Garrett suggested eating at the Dog Pound for lunch on Saturday before heading back to California. This was a place Ken had liked to eat at and had introduced Garrett to.
I'm not usually a big fan of hot dogs but these were exceptionally good!
Sarah with her Chicago style dog.

I was really glad I was able to get off work and spend time with the Ghents, it was neat to hear all the stories that were being told. They are such an amazing family, each of them have such beautiful hearts filled with love for God and His people.

Michelle, I'm glad you were able to get off work so you could come with us to Texas. It was especially fun during the driving and slumber partying with Brenna. You are the best little sis ever!
