An eventful September!

Tortilla Soup Night
CARES Event
(Richard made all the soup!)
September always seems to be one of the busier times of the year for us! As you know, Jessa runs Keep Mesquite Beautiful (a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that aims to educate kids and adults on environmental education...through special events and programs). Richard and Jessa serve as a CARES Team at The Village in Dallas through the nonprofit, Apartment Life, Inc. (our mission is to serve our neighbors by building community and friendship through special events...and help out in special times of need). See what events we have been up to... :)

Richard helping to pass out the pizza to deliver to the Mesquite Fire Department. The event was cancelled due to rain....so, we had a TON of pizza to distribute!
