Interview with Brett

Are you ready for more?

Well, hello there.  It's me again, Lindsey (LP).  As promised, I'm thrilled to post Brett's (BK) interview responses for you to read.  If you're just tuning in, you can read Chelsey's interview HERE or just keep on scrolling down, down, down...  It was fun for me to get a bit more insight into my wonderful brother-in-law.  He takes such great care of my sister; I'm blessed that he's part of the family.

No matter where you are, rain or shine or snow or wind, enjoy another stroll through Tennessee with me... come on y'all, it'll be fun!

1) So Brett, did you ever dream you would be living in the state of Tennessee? -LP

No never thought I would leave the state of California or Thousand oaks for that matter.  I always thought I was going to stay in California and open my own strength facility. -BK

2) What is a highlight about living in Tennessee? -LP

The highlight would have to be getting to coach college baseball and living with my wife. -BK

3) When you miss the California sunshine, what do you do to cope? -LP

Watch Calvary Chapel Godspeak to get a little reminder of the people we miss at home. -BK

4) What are you currently studying / specific courses / rotations / coaching? -LP

Getting a master's degree in business administration taking business ethics, operations management and managerial leadership.  As far as coaching [baseball], coaching the infielders and helping with hitting. -BK

5) What is something you like to do together when you're not doing those things? -LP

Sit on the couch cuddle up and watch our favorite TV shows. -BK

6) Southern hospitality and warmth.  Is it true? If yes, give a personal example. -LP  
{did you know the raccoon is Tennessee's state animal? -LP}

Yes it is true, everywhere you go you are always greeted with a smile and a 'how are you today' with the perception you are actually going to expand on your day not just give a "fine". -BK

7) What month would you tell people to visit Tennessee?  Why? -LP  {photo source}

October/November is probably best because it starts getting much cooler with minimal humidity as well as the leaves starting to change colors. -BK

8) Do you miss living in the mobile home?  Why / why not? -LP

No definitely not, much nicer have a house and don't have to worry about the dog running off now having a fenced backyard. -BK

9) What's your main mode of transportation? -LP

My truck, black dodge hemi, to and from school. -BK

10) Describe your experience in Tennessee in 3 words or less. -LP

God is good. -BK

I thought I'd end with this photo.  Chelsey shared it with the caption: "I have a HUGE crush on my gardener!"  Aren't they the cutest couple?  And Brett, I couldn't agree more with your response to question 10.

I hope all of you enjoyed these 2 interviews.  Again, if you missed Chelsey's, click HERE or just scroll down.  It's fun to see the similarities and differences in their responses.

Love Big Sis-in-Law, Linz

Corey recruited him to play the night we arrived in TN :). 

It was a great opportunity to relax after our first exam.

 Taking care of business at short stop!

This is a Christian league and it's so cool to see both teams circle up and pray before the game...especially when my husband is the one who prays :)

Love Chels

Road Trip

 Not sure what this is all about

 After rain and heat and humidity and troubles of rain and troubles of load, 

we finally made it to our Tennessee home

 Our "little" piece of heaven...y'all come out and visit some time.  

We'll bag us a deer and have some good eatin'

Their new home sweet home !!!

Thanks for sticking with me ALL the way to the end.

I just talked to Chels on the phone, and she and Brett are pretty tired after a long road trip.  However, they are still wishing they were on their honeymoon ready for the next adventure.

She starts her second year of medical school on Monday, and Brett starts his classes in a couple weeks.

Apparently, their dog Gracie LOVES her new yard !!!

Tennessee, I hope you know how lucky you are.

Cheers to Brett and Chelsey !

Love Big Sister Lindsey
