Our family gathering this month was for all the October birthdays. We celebrated Nana, Baylee and Brock. Kelby and Troy couldn’t make this weekend get together. We played games and ate and they opened their cards.
Troy was able to come home for his actual birthday a week later and we took him out to dinner to celebrate him turning 20! Hard to believe he’s done with the teen years!
This semester Troy started in his new major, Natural Resources Management. He seems to really like his classes and even has a class with Derrick. He also started a job a J Crew that he is really enjoying, and his Nissan finally bit the dust so he got a new Compass. He’s been home once for about 12 hours to get the new vehicle, but other than that he has been busy living that college life!
Teague applied to Texas Tech the moment it opened on August 1st. He wrote a great essay and had strong recommendation letters so I’m hoping he gets in!
Teague finally heard back after a month. He’s going to be a Red Raider!
Koby has jumped into teaching and coaching this year at Riesel. We have been able to attend a few games now and it seems like he has found such a sweet community that supports him and a great group of coaches to learn from. I think he’s learning that teaching and coaching is a lot of time, but it is also so rewarding! It’s been fun watching him grow in this next season of life.
Justin and Heather bought a new house, so we decided to head to the beach over Labor Day to see them and their new home for the long weekend. The weather was a little rainy at first, but cleared up for a great weekend! We enjoyed seeing their beautiful home and loved their pool and hot tub. Then we spent one day at the beach and in our rental home that was nice also. It was a very relaxing weekend!
Teague’s last first day and he chose to start the year in a Texas Tech shirt. He has a great schedule with a lot of his friends and I think he’s going to have a great year! He already taken his senior year book photos so I think it’s really becoming real to him.
I started year 14, year 6 at Axtell, and my 3rd year in dyslexia. I still love this position and the people I work with. I’m exciting for a great year!
Meet the Longhorns was a great way to start the new year! It always raises the excitement and gets everyone ready for a great fall season with all the sports and activities!
Let’s go Longhorns!
