Church Family Sock Hop

Our church hosted a Family Sock Hop- it was so much fun!     The Ruby's definitely enjoyed it!

Grandpa Bob

This Thursday Kirt's grandfather passed away.   We got to go and visit last Saturday and enjoyed our time there.

These are the pictures from our trip to San Antonio in October.     The kids loved to spend time with them and Sam will miss his weekly newspaper clippings that Grandpa Bob sent him each week.

Painting

Last spring our friends, Tim & Jennifer introduced us to Cornerstone Ranch in McKinney.   On Thursdays these special needs adults paint.    They do amazing work- they do 99% of the paintings themselves- we as their "helpers" just guide and encourage them.     The paintings are made into cards & coasters and sold to raise money for Cornerstone Ranch.    Here are a few pictures from this last semester of painting!

Arrow of Light

Sam recieved his cubscout Arrow of Light award last night.   Bittersweet as we end our time in scouting.   We are proud of Sam's accomplishments.

Sam and Kirt made a cake for the Dad and Son cake contest!   It was the first one that was all gone (probably because of all the chocolate)

His first year in scouts- he looks so little
