Scouts, Snow and Birthdays
Bryce has been keeping us quite busy with his Cub Scout activities. We just got back from a Cub Adventure camp where he shot BB guns, bow and arrow, slingshot, air cannon and a water balloon catapult from the side of a pirate ship. Lisa, Bryce and Zoe all had birthdays last month. We went to Ohio for Thanksgiving. Lisa and Zoe drove up there and Bryce and I flew in to meet them. We all drove back together… two days of driving. The kids got to play in the snow and I froze. This was the first time Zoe had ever seen snow. It was good to get back to Texas and mow my lawn in my shorts. On a sad note- just after the holidays Lisa lost her uncle H.C. Fields and her grandmother Pauline Muntan. Also, a very close friend of mine, Lang Charters, suffered a tragic fall while hiking in Red Rock Canyon and remains in serious condition. He’s a great man and in our prayers. Aside from all the bad stuff that’s happened to those we care about, things are going okay here. Bryce is doing well in second grade, Zoe is looking forward to starting school next year (but not as much as Lisa is looking forward to her going), and Lisa is retired and now works for Den 2 Pack 757.
