Halftime Tribute

I think today was quite possibly the best halftime performance I've ever seen by the University of Texas band. It was a tribute to both our Armed Forces and the late, great Darrell K. Royal. Here are a few snippets I caught, but I found the entire show on YouTube, and it's cleverness is worth the watch.

Experiencing Art

Madden and I are members of the National Charity League. Her class attended Painting with a Twist and each created their own version of the same painting.

1st World Problems

Our youth director shared these two videos. I've asked the girls to watch them, but I find I am the one who needs the reminder more than they do, as they are merely modeling my behavior as their mother. As the holiday season rolls around, I am reminded that we have SO MUCH and will be giving and receiving so much more. How blessed are we?!?! What can or should we do to pass our blessings on to others?
