End of the year celebration

Maddie had her "end of the year" party last Friday. We are so glad we put her in the KLT program this year...she has grown so much and has loved being in "real school".
Thank you Jamie, Allison and Teri for being the best teachers ever!!!

Walk for Autism

Last week, we participated in the "Walk for Autism". Our team raised $4,000 through fundraisers and t-shirt sales. Way to go Team!

Welcome Home Jame!

My brother, James, came home from Iraq on May 4th. We all drove to El Paso to see him arrive and then we were able to spend a day or two with him. The kids did fantastic on the trip and were so excited to see their Uncle Jame come home.We are so grateful for his safe return and were blessed to be there to welcome him back.

His plane landing...we were thrilled to get to get be outside when he got off the plane. The last time he came home it took us 2 1/2 hours to get to see him. It was about 1/2 an hour this time!
