So it's been a while since I updated, sorry! Well, Ken was out of work from the beginning of Dec 2008 until the end of Jan 2009 and took a local truck driving job to try and get us by. He did that for a couple of weeks, then took some time to practice Tig welding to take a test for a possible job. He tested and busted the same test twice, unfortunately, and is not able to re-test for the same company for a year.
Last week, on Feb 25th, Ken got a call from a company in Independence, MO that he had applied for, and they told him that they wanted him to work for them.
We packed up the 5th Wheel trailer and on Thursday the 26th we drove to Aurora, CO and spent the night with Sabrina's family.
Friday 27th we continued our long drive to Independence, MO. We got to the RV park around 10:30 pm, local time (11:30pm home time). We had a long, but safe travel.
On Saturday the 28th, first we woke up to 2-3" of snow. Then, we found out where some of the stores were for our shopping, gas stations that have diesel and Hunter's favorite, went to Donald's for lunch. Sunday March 1st we went to the Independence 2nd Ward for church. We met some very nice people. It took Hunter a little bit to warm up to the new nursery, but I was finally able to go to Sunday School.
Monday was Ken's first day at work and he has been "schooling" all week. Hunter and I hung out and got to organize in the trailer. Sabrina was able to go to a Mary Kay unit meeting and was so excited, because it's her Director's unit!
Tuseday Sabrina talked to a friend that lives in MO, only an hour away! We went to Monica and Chas Jacobsen's for dinner that night! We had so much fun seeing our friends again. It's been so long! Their kids are sooooooo cute and getting so big!
Wednesday was nice outside. We didn't know this until Ken got home from work and we went to open a bank account here in MO. We I wish I would have tried to go outside sooner!
Thursday was 75 degrees outside! It was soooooooo nice. We walked to the RV office and pd another week on our spot. We had lunch outside on our picnic table. Hunter played outside and had so much fun. After his nap we ran some errands, then Ken called and he was home. We picked him up and went to the park for a little bit.
Today's Friday, we have been here for a week and Ken called this morning and told me that he needs to be in Trenton, MO for work on Monday. So, we will be leaving Independence on Sunday after church. Time to look for another RV park and the manager of the one we're at said there is nothing in Trenton as far as RV Parks, so I guess I will look and find out. I will post more pics if time allows later today. Time to make lunch!
