April Update
April has come and gone. We spent the month looking at the Easter story and enjoying some beautiful weather that allowed us to get out and have some fun!
March Update
And just like that, we’re 1/4 of the way through the year! We’ve been growing and learning and having too much fun on our properties. The kids are definitely ready for nothing but sunny skies and warm weather – at this time of the year, they’re definitely tired of being stuck inside most of the […]
February Update
February 2019 is in the books. We spent a lot of time indoors due to the cold. (but got out to run around as much as possible). We had a lot of kids out sick. But no matter what, we found ways to have fun, learn all about Jesus, and meet new some new friends. […]
January Update
Our first month of the new year flew by. We started our study on the life of Jesus each week, played as many wild and wacky games as we could, made some fun things, and met some new friends. And, as always, we had a blast!

Camp Awesome
The first few days of July, we headed to Hidden Falls Ranch with 40 kids and a host of great volunteers for one of the highlights of our year – Camp Awesome. We swam, hiked, rode horses, played games, sang songs, made crafts, climbed, zip-line, swam some more, and had an absolute blast. Our kids […]

Summer is in full swing around here. That means lots of water fun to cool off from the heat, as demonstrated by Mallory at Cypress Creek: The kids at Ridgecrest have discovered how much fun we can have with water balloons. Our wet and wild version of Duck, Duck, Goose has quickly become a favorite. […]
