Brad's Russia Trip
In April, Brad went to Russia with Chick-fil-A and WinShape. He gave a business presentation and also helped at a local orphanage. He had a wonderful time and some unique experiences. We have hundreds of pictures, but here are just a few.

New House
After 7 years in our house, we have decided to build a new house. It will look a lot like this when it is done. We started the process in April and it should be done by Thanksgiving. The new house will be in north Keller, close to the Westlake border.

Hello Tooth Fairy
Rylee lost her first tooth yesterday during lunch. Of course we were eating at Chick-fil-A, but in Temple. She was a freaked out at first, and I was too when she turned around to hand me her tooth. Brad said we both recovered very quickly. Later in the car, I caught her staring at her mouth in the mirror. The tooth fairy came, but the money dropped off the top bunk, so Rylee thought she was crying about something. Then she was upset because she didn't have fairy dust on her face (her friend at school did when she lost a tooth.) I explained to her that there are different tooth fairies assigned to different neighborhoods and that maybe her tooth fairy is new just like Tinkerbell (new Disney movie.) She seemed to be okay with that answer.

Jackson's Birthday Party
Jackson's birthday party was during Rylee's soccer game so my parents took Reese to the party until we got there. It was very windy, which worked out perfectly because Jennifer had kites for all the kids and she made superhero capes and masks for everyone.
