RGV DADS Takeover

Congratulations RGVFC Toros on defeating the Colorado Springs Switchbacks 3-0!

One month ago, I collaborated with Ms. Gabriela Bernal on the RGV DADS Takeover event. Our goal was to produce an event to celebrate Dads and their families. It was a success!

The event began with our children creating a Father's Day craft which included their hand prints. Dads will cherish this memento for years to come! Everybody enjoyed the time we spent in the VIP suite!

Father's Day Craft

Mr. Toro came by our suite to mingle with our children and take pictures! He always brings a lot of energy and excitement wherever he goes.

The Toros Girls were in attendance and took pictures with us. They performed very well during the halftime festivities!

H-E-B raffled off two gift baskets to the Dads at our event. The baskets included: H-E-B gift card, H-E-B chips, charcoal, lighter fluid, and other items for Dad in an amazing ice chest! Needless to say, the Dads that won were very happy!

Next, our children were invited to walk onto the field with the RGVFC Toros players! They were given a shirt and paired up with the soccer players. Our children stood on the field as the National Anthem was performed.

Some of our Dads were enjoying their first RGVFC Toros game. We enjoyed the food, drinks, and had some laughs! Most importantly, we created memories with our loved ones!

My daughters insisted on congratulating Jesus "Chuy" Enriquez (#11). He is a phenomenal athlete and person! The entire team was gracious with their time as they took pictures with fans and signed shirts.

Thank you Ms. Gabriela Bernal, Ms. Lyna Campos, RGVFC Toros, and H-E-B for your involvement in RGV DADS Takover. We are looking forward to celebrating with you next year!

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is an opportunity to show our children love and it does not have the break the bank! NEVER sleep on Dollar Tree! I was able to find quality, yet inexpensive, glass votives for roses. I had an existing rose bush that I had been caring for and that is where I picked and trimmed my roses for my daughters. While at Dollar Tree, I picked up some boxes of chocolates that they liked! Don't. Forget. The. Card. Spend some time choosing a card that matches the recipient. Write something meaningful in there and they will cherish it forever. I did not splurge for the balloons, but Dollar Tree has those too! Roses | Chocolates | Cards The reality of societal pressures gives us an opportunity to display our love for our family on this holiday. We love our family EVERYDAY and we show it! Jesus T.

Smart Christmas Shopping

Like most children, our girls have been busy compiling their Christmas Wish Lists. I transferred their Wish Lists to Amazon on Sunday evening. You can even share lists with friends and family around the world if they would like to buy gifts for your children. Evie and I started shopping via Amazon on Sunday night! ALWAYS compare prices online. I typically compare Amazon, Walmart, and Target. On Monday morning, we went to Target to get the items we could not find on Amazon. It was nice to shop in person as the store was decorated for the holidays and the Christmas music was playing in the background. I made sure to stop at Starbucks for my Love (we grabbed a taco for me too)! We were searching for a particular doll (the Target website stated they had some in stock...ALWAYS carry your iPhone), so Ryan (Target store associate) was kind enough to check in the back. He found it and I told him he was our hero! We found gifts for our fa...
