Major

We went back to Choctaw with Major and his kids last weekend. Brooke and Mally though three years apart, connected and played non-stop. I ended up in the hotel room with Will most of the time. He got an ear infection just as we arrived. It was okay, one of the nights I made my blog book, into a reality. Kevin and Major didn't talk business because they were having too much fun! It was awesome to see Major and his kids. Lisa was on a girls weekend trip, so we really missed visiting with her, this time.


Kevin has a wide spectrum of friends. As do I, learning of it's value, from Kevin. Putting it in perspective, after only a few weeks of knowing Kevin we went from hanging out with his loyal, alcoholic, plumber friend, to flying on Major's private Jet to Kansas City for a party with his fraternity brothers and their wives, for the Super Bowl. It was the first time I would meet Major. I quickly learned about one of Major's defining characteristics, "Fun." After a weekend with Major, the writing was on the wall about Kevin and Major's undeniable compatibility for friendship. Kevin named Major his best friend, beside his brother Jeff. On the plane ride home, Major whispered promises of luxury and grandeur in a life with Kevin. Only, Major half way joking in his comments, and having just met me, didn't realize the the basis for which I was with Kevin, on the trip, was the same as his reason for loving Kevin and trusting him as a business partner. Not love resulting in hope of material wealth, but because of the fact that Kevin is the most trustworthy, hardworking, fun-loving person you will ever meet. This is only one, of the many reasons why our family holds Major at great importance. He See's Kevin's potential, he has faith in him, and besides all the fun, that is had, when hanging out with Major, at the end of the day, Major is always there for Kevin, believing in him and bringing him up. He is family to us. Kevin always mentions that his optimism was something he learned from Major. This gift of being positive, will forever affect our family for the good.


We enjoy seeing Major and his family every year in July. We go to Lake of the Ozarks with them  and they come in to McKinney almost every year. Kevin of course sees Major much more than I do, for business. please excuse my pictures. They are are from Majors camera phone, because I was in the room with a napping, cranky, but beautiful baby.
