Summer 2017

 We started out our summer with an early birthday celebration for Sophie.  We took 4 of her friends to Fort Worth
We rode the train into Dallas
 And watched Texas Ballet Theater's Alice in Wonderland.


 Sophie also got her ears pierced
 Happy 13th Birthday, Sophie!!!!

 We moved to Sugar Land on June 9 and got settled in.
 Family came to visit,
 JC went to VBS,
 and we went to an Astro's game,


 On the 4th of  July we went to Brazos Bend State Park
 and then to watch fireworks with friends.
 We got to go to a reunion at the Aggie BSM


 Sophie and I got to see Edina Menzel,
 the Fentresses came to visit,

 and JC went to camp.
 In August we went to Galveston with the Barkers.







 We explored Sugar Land some, visiting the museum.


 At the end of the summer, John Curtis got baptized.



 On what we thought was the last week of summer, we had a solar eclipse.



 Right as we were preparing to start school, Hurricane Harvey blew in postponing everything for 2 more weeks.
 We took shelter often,
 even sleeping in the bathroom.
Ultimately we evacuated to Katy.  Everything in our world ended up safe and dry, but it was a scary few days.

Overall, our summer was 108 days of change, fun, adventure, heartache, and lots of God's goodness!
