Our Graduate

It took a little longer than planned (and in true Christian fashion, was down to the wire!) but we have our first college graduate! Congratulations Christian! The newest University of Oklahoma alumni, with a degree in aerospace engineering!

Graduation was virtual, but I wanted to fly out and get lots of pictures on campus. I flew into Dallas and Christian met me there. It was so awesome to get to see Amy and family right at the holidays!

Amy and the girls decided to drive up to OKC, too, so we got an extra 24 hours with them. 

We took LOTS of pics on campus!

SO PROUD!

After pictures, we took a scooter tour around campus-which was way more fun!

It was so nice to get to spend time with this crew!

Tuesday morning we headed home. The flight is much better than the drive!

Flag Football Senior Night

Senior Night was originally scheduled back in November, but several of our seniors were under quarantine, so it was rescheduled for the first round of playoffs.

Ready to walk out onto the field

Team Captain again this year

She is very intense!

Our team is VERY good! They didn't let up a single point until the last game of the regular season and outscored their opponents 256-6. However, the week playoffs began, three of their top offensive threats got hurt, including their starting quarterback.

Unfortunately, the game didn't go the way we hoped and they lost the game 6-0.

Defense played great, though! We just couldn't put any points on the board.

They were so heartbroken!

It has been a tough fall for her, but I am so proud of her!!!

Senior night festivities were a small consolation. Strong, pretty girls!

Love these two coaches! (And I know they love her as well!)

I love my #12!

WIP Finish

I've had the blocks for Christian's high school quilt cut out since the summer after he graduated, but never finished it. This was a great quarantine project!

Carolyn even helped with the hand binding.

 Love the way it turned out and I hope that he will enjoy the memories it invokes for years to come!

DCES Teacher Parade

Although our days at Duncan Creek Elementary are long past,I was so happy to see the teacher parade in the neighborhood today!

So sweet of them to come "visit" their kids this morning!

Art Pickup

Carolyn was able to get in to school to clean out her locker and pick up her WIP and some supplies from the art teacher.

Going Airborne Today

Christian is in his Capstone class this year. His group was tasked to make a drone for the National Weather Service to measure different air chemicals, etc. 

CAD design

Wing struts

The NWS gave them parameters they needed-weight of the equipment, flying time, etc.

 The drone has a compartment to slide different equipment in and out as needed.

First test flight is today!
