Tents, Trunks or Treats

 This weekend was Tents, Trunk or Treats at CTK. It was a very rainy day so they had to move the "trunks" inside to the Parish Center. Allison and her squad also performed to Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson. They all dressed in white fedoras, with white dress shirts and black ties. Allison looked so great and she had a blast. We always enjoyed checking out all the candy booths, some of them were really inventive.

Cultural Day at CTK

Today, CTK celebrated cultural day. This is a day where everyone is allowed to dress in their own cultural attire and family members bring food representing their culture. Allison decided to dress in the outfit we purchased in Santa Barbara last August during Spanish Cultural Heritage. She's grown quite a bit since then so the dress is a lot shorter than it used to be but she still looks really cute in it!

Much Love,

Alex Warren

 We headed back up to NWA this weekend (and got to eat at Oak again) for the Alex Warren concert at the AMP. Abigail is a super fan of Alex Warren's so when she heard he was coming up to Arkansas she begged us for tickets. We had heard some of his music and it is really good but his concert was great. He's very funny and entertaining. Our tickets were great too so we really had a good time. Both girls sang every single song and we enjoyed watching them have such a good time.

Raise Craze

We wrapped up the last year of Raise Craze for Allison! She ended up raising the most money, not only in her class, but the ENTIRE school! The entire school ended up raising more than $68,000! Their goal was $65,000 so they exceeded their goal this year. This is great news for the school and we're so incredibly proud of our sweet, funny, kind girl!

Much Love,

Cheer, Lawn Social, and Haunted Houses

This weekend Allison's cheer team had their first performance at the St Boniface Lawn Social. This event raises funds for the local church and the girls got to perform a few cheers to open up the event. As a 5th grader, Allison even led some of the cheers. She really is amazing and is such a sweet kid. After the girls performed, we enjoyed all the fun booths at the lawn social, then headed to dinner. 

While we were at St Boniface, Abigail and her friends went to Muskogee to visit three different haunted houses, one of which is supposed to be the scariest haunted house in the state. Abigail confirmed that it was quite scary but she had a great time. It was extra special because it was the first time she got to hang out with her friends who went to Southside since they all started back to school.

Dad's Birthday!

Today we celebrate our most favorite man, Dad.  He is our anchor, our laughter, and our safe place. We love the adventures he plans for us, the food he cooks for us, and the love he gives to us. To celebrate his big day, we headed up to NWA to shop and to try out Oak, a new steakhouse in Rogers. The food was incredible and our server was fantastic. We're already trying to figure out ways to get back to Rogers for another dinner at Oak! We didn't get to celebrate in the big way we had originally planned due to other family issues but we'll definitely make it up to him. We look forward to many more adventures, laughter, love, and fun! Happy birthday!

Much Love,

Jennifer, Abigail, Allison (Luna & Raya)

A&M vs Notre Dame

This weekend was a whirlwind to say the least. We got up very early on Saturday morning to travel to South Bend, IN for the A&M vs Notre Dame game. Our plan was to fly in to Grand Rapids, check into our hotel, and drive to South Bend for the game. Unfortunately, our flight was delayed so as soon as we landed in Grand Rapids we had to head straight to South Bend. We arrived slightly before the 7:00 kick off and buckled in for an amazing game! We were thrilled that A&M pulled off the win, the girls even cried happy tears. After the game we drove back to Grand Rapids grabbed a few hours sleep before catching a flight to DFW to attend the Cowboys afternoon game. We finally arrived home around 11:00 pm on Sunday night. All of us were exhausted but it was such an amazing and memorable experience...one that we will never forget. Gig 'em!

Much Love,
