Livin in Frisco Texas

It has been way too long but I'm back. Been living in Frisco, TX since October 28, 2009 and so far I would have to say it has been very nice. Since Traci and the kids arrived it has only gotten better. We have spent time seeing as much as we can while we try and still attend church meetings, attend school and make work a priority. We have been able to spend some time in San Antonio where we saw the Alamo...very good, then we took a boat ride on the river and ate at the cafe on the river walk...best part of San Antonio hands down. Another weekend we enjoyed the stock yards in Fort Worth. Andrew is so in love with trains so we had to take a ride on the train and he was in a trance until the blew the horn. It was loud and it scared him. That is all we have heard about since...the train is loud, over and over and over. We made our way to the Fort Worth Zoo and that was a good time for all. Closed the place down and there was a train a little more inline with Andrew's liking. Much better experience. Later, Jared and I went on a scout campout to Camp Richards (?) in Jacksboro, TX. They had a small WWII reinactment. The boys loved it and I thought it was pretty darn cool as well. I really liked the weapons demonstration. The shot off all types of automatic and semi-automatic rifles and hand guns. Blanks of course but all the sound, smell and show.

The job here has been an interesting learning experience so far. Some frustrating things but nothing so bad it can not be fixed. All in all and good experience and glad I took the job. I would really like to get back to Utah and if a promotion or whatever does not come soon I would be looking for something to either bring back to Utah or find a way to sell our home and move here. Recently, my sales team has been doing well and been steady. In sales, no matter what you do someone always wants you to do more. So we are working on doing more.
