Collin's 16th

 Here we are! A driver in the house! Collin turned 16 on the first day of Christmas Break. We got him a whole car kit...

The following weekend, he had a group of school friends over to play games, eat pizza, and make ice cream sundaes.

They fooled around in the backyard too.

Soccer

SwRI Six Flags Picnic

This year Ryan's work picnic was at Six Flags. We had to hustle to get there from a soccer game. 

Veteran's Day

Texas schools go all-out for Veteran's Day each year. Ethan was a reader for part of the program, and Katelyn sang in the choir. I made the video that was shown.

Neighborhood 5K

We love our neighborhood! 

Brennan and I both got 2nd place in our age groups.

March Madness

San Antonio is hosting March Madness this year, and our elementary school had the chance to have a day with the trophy. A truck came with a sport court and basketball hoop, and the kids could spin a wheel to win prizes. 

Youth Friendsgiving

The church youth do a Friendsgiving Dinner every year where the kids are supposed to invite a school friend. Collin and Brennan ALWAYS "invite" each other. Silly boys.

SwRI Race

They messed up the timing chips, so we didn't get any results. So instead of giving HEB gift cards to the fastest, they did a random drawing. Katelyn won! 

Thanksgiving

We visited the Light the World Machines at The Pearl.

We bought Collin a 2017 VW jetta.

We saw Wicked at the movie theater.

We cheered the Buckeyes on to their loss to Michigan. 

We visited Six Flags to see the nativity and drone show.
