as ashton and brianna remember their mother telling them. we happen to be laying on the bed with her. she just started talking. she was like, i am just i m so happy that i have you girls and dad. it was kind of a conversation that you don t have every day. still, there was work to be done. it was not a new house, could use some remodeling, particularly the bathroom co. courtney was still living with her parents as the work began. they were going to be doing the tile work and stuff so we would haven t a shower for that day. so shower out of commission, they decided to wake up early, put on the bathing suits and rinse off in the outdoor spa before the contractor arrived at 6:45 a.m. it was june 7th, 2007. chris got up first, turned on the spa to warm it up and called brianna at the college dorm in san bernardino. here s your wake up call, babe. go out on the run.
