So it’s nearly a month late. Give me a break…I was on vacation time! Our South Padre vacation ended as wonderfully as it began.

Monday Morning QB
Because of a wedding shower, I didn’t get to watch the game in its entirety, though I did manage to catch snippets here and there (and saw most of the highlights on the Sunday evening sports special). I must admit, these Cowboys are making it fun to be a fan!

Our “church search” officially began this week with a visit to First Baptist Church in Allen. Crisana attends preschool at this location, so we figured we’d begin here, just to check it out.

Welcome to another edition of Halloween on Sloan Creek! This year’s theme: “Candy Swap.” Yup, that’s right. We have now reached the point where there are more than a handful of children in the neighborhood. And all of us were out in force tonight.

Love in 5 Languages, The Final Chapter
Well, I totally missed it last week, so you’re getting this final installment a week late. But hey, who’s counting, right? Last week was the last week of class for the 5 Love Languages of Children.  Our topic for the night was the love language of Acts of Service. The authors made a great… Continue reading Love in 5 Languages, The Final Chapter
I have decided
I should have posted this on Sunday, but we ended up selling popcorn and visiting with neighbors a little too late.
