Elliott & I enjoyed hosting faculty who have served ⁦⁦@SamHoustonState⁩ for 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 years. Oh the stories they could tell! They helped build an exceptional university, and I am grateful!

Our 4-yo grandson got to pet this pony at a DFW library. Our 9-yo grandson got to pet a reptile at the Huntsville library. All of our grandkids love to go to their public libraries to read books, see exhibits, and have adventures. Community treasures!

Last week some of our girls had the opportunity to volunteer at our local library for Builders Club. We appreciate the invite and can’t wait to come back in the fall for more fun!

ACE Course Highlight!

In fall 2023, students in two sections of Dr. Ashton Mouton’s Business Communication course built a large-scale communication campaign for the Hospitality House Huntsville. A few samples of their work are featured below.

We love seeing our faculty and students building relationships with community partners through ACE! Courses such as these provide numerous benefits to all involved.

We had two professors share their Academic Community Engagement (ACE) experiences with us! Dr. O’Brien’s class worked with the Huntsville Walker County Chamber of Commerce on their visual identify, while Professor Garrison’s class worked with Second Preschool on prospect packets.

During our Houston Family Christmas THIS Saturday, we will be serving holiday refreshments at Eliza’s Kitchen.

For the gingerbread, we are using a recipe that comes from John Cook’s 1824 cookbook, “Cooking and Confectionary”.
