Thanksgiving 2014

Thanksgiving was very special for us this year.  We hosted 2 trainees from Lackland Air Force Base in our home to share Thanksgiving with our family.  These 2 men are serving our country and making sacrifices for us.  It was a great opportunity to get to know them, share a meal with them, and offer them a comfortable couch for an afternoon nap! 

We have so much to be thankful for.  Personally, I am thankful for my faith, my family, and my health.  God has blessed me in more ways that I deserve.  I pray that my children know how blessed they are.  I pray that my children always remain thankful for the many blessings that they have been given. 

Indian Feast

The kindergartners at Kinder Ranch made Indian shirts and headbands to wear at their feast.  The kids went around the cafeteria and put together a fun trail mix for their afternoon snack!  Kennedi and her best friend Dani looked so cute!

Two Front Teeth

Just like Carson, Kennedi had adult teeth growing in behind her baby teeth.  We had to have her bottom 2 teeth pulled to make room for the new ones.  She did great and was excited to have the toothfairy visit for the first time!

Roadrunners

Carson was on a great little basketball team this fall.  10 kids that had never met before, came together and played so hard all season long.  Coach Anthony led them to a very successful season!  At the end of the season they played 2 advanced teams and did really great.  Then, in the tournament, they made it all the way to the championship game!  Even though they finished 2nd place, we were so proud of these kids!  Great job Roadrunners!

Rockin at the Ranch!

Every year KRE hosts Rockin at the Ranch!  It is a fun time with pizza, face painting, and dancing!  The kids always enjoy being around their friends and it ends up being a great family night for us as well!

Thanksgiving Feast

At Rainbow Station, Cade and his friends celebrated Thanksgiving with a feast!  Jason, Grandmother and I joined Cade for lunch.  The kids made cute little placemats and sang a few Thanksgiving songs.  I just hope that as Cade gets older he knows how blessed he is!

 

 

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Our family is solid because of DAD.  We all love him so much.  He works so hard so that we can have all that we do.  He loves me and the kids unconditionally.  Happy Birthday to the best husband and father in the world!

Watch Dogs

Kinder Ranch Elementary has a Watch Dog program for Dad's to get involved in the school.  Basically, the dad volunteers for an entire day.  They help kids off the bus or out of cars in the morning.  They assist in classrooms (usually their kids classrooms) and they help in the lunch room and at recess.  The kids LOVE for their Dad to be at the school and LOVE to see him on video for morning announcements.  I am so glad that Jason is so involved in our kids school.  It means so much to them and he LOVES doing it!  I am so thankful!
