This week was a fun week of Troy receiving acceptance letters from both Texas Tech and Sam Houston. We haven’t visited Sam Houston yet, so we will do that in a few weeks, but he is happy to know he has options! All his hard work in high school is paying off and I’m sure no matter where he chooses to go, he’ll be successful!
This year I decided to make one night a week a Family Fun Night. With it being the last year with all the boys at home, I thought we should try to enjoy a dedicated night to being together. The first week we went to the movies to see The Forge, but I forgot to get a picture. The next activity was Paint a Portrait. We each chose a name out of a hat and painted that person. It was hilarious seeing the final results.
Then, we had a bake off. Chef Troy prepared a sweet and savory chocolate chip cookie lightly dusted with sea salt and Chef Teague prepared a cherry shortbread cookie with a chocolate drizzle. Richard was the judge, but he said they were both too good to pick a winner. And I agree they were both delicious and it’s nice to know the boys can bake if ever they need to!
Next up…game night!
