Family 

Focus 

Family Roster 

Mom: Romni, Director of Logistics (Chateau Domingue) 

Dad: Blake, Grind Division Manager (Oerlikon) 

Son: Kaidryn, 9 YO: Black Belt TKD (Tiger Rock Martial 

Arts of Katy), World Medalist/Titlist; Also enjoys 

modeling, singing, and acting 

Christmaaaaas 

Favorite Family Traditions: Annual Christmas Caroling Party 

through the neighborhoods (what a fun way to dive back 

into days of yore!), Dickens on the Strand in Galveston, 

cooking for family and friends every year (especially 

making decorated chocolate dipped marshmallows and 

other chocolate goodies), baking cookies for Santa, and 

toy donations for children. Oh, and lest we forget their 

beloved visit with Santa at Bass Pro Shop! He always makes 

sure to stock up on reindeer food while he’s there! 

Funniest Christmas Memory: “One year we were headed to Dickens on the strand and we found out a 

cold front was coming into town. I spent the entire evening in our hotel sewing furry capes so the family 

would not freeze. It was 27 degrees that year. Because of all the fur, our hotel room looked like a wild 

animal was turned loose in there and shed its winter coat.” 

Shopping Logistics: This smart mama pays extra on the family bills all year so that at Christmas time, she’s 

sitting on a nice credit to use towards presents, festivities and feasts. School book drives and other similar 

events are opportune times for Romni to stash away a collection of unique gifts to tuck under their tree. 

The Reason for the Season: Christmas time is so special for this family since it brings their families and 

friends together, especially by enjoying a number of dinner parties throughout the season. 

Auld Lang Syne: “On New Year’s Eve, we usually throw a big party - everyone and the kids are welcome. 

We eat and pop fireworks!” 

Locale 

Morton Ranch - On why they like living there: “We 

love the small town feel of Katy but just close enough 

to the culture of the big city with all the Museums 

30 min away and a beach only 1 hour away. My 

husband and I both grew up in Houston/Katy and 

the surrounding areas. I am an MCHS Alumni class of 

‘92 and my husband is Cy-Fair HS class of ’95. We 

love our community and people in it.”

WILDLIFE - THEY’RE EVERYWHERE 

By Cheryl Conley, TWRC Wildlife Center 

Love them or hate them, they’re everywhere! I’m talking about 

those funny little critters called squirrels. As the fall baby season is 

coming to an end, TWRC Wildlife Center has been inundated with 

babies. What is normally a very busy time anyway, Hurricane Harvey 

only added to the numbers. Hundreds of orphans were admitted 

and will continue to be cared for until they are ready for release. 

The Houston area is home to the gray squirrel, the fox squirrel and 

the flying squirrel. About 90% of the squirrels in our area are gray 

squirrels. Most people have never seen a flying squirrel because 

they are nocturnal. They are very small and their tail acts as a rudder 

to help guide it in flight. They don’t have wings but rather skin 

that forms “flaps” that stretch between the “ankle” and “wrist.” 

If you’ve ever seen a squirrel eating out of a “squirrel-proof” bird 

feeder, then you know how intelligent they are. They have also 

been known to pretend to bury food just to trick other animals. A 

2010 study showed that when a squirrel is being watched, they will 

actually dig a hole, pat it with their front teeth and scrape dirt over 

it to make it look like they are burying a treasure when, in fact, they 

are hiding their stash in a pocket near their armpit. 

Community Newsletter | December 2017 

Here are some things you probably don’t know about squirrels: 

• A squirrel’s front teeth never stop growing. In the wild, 

squirrels are constantly gnawing which keeps them 

short. 

• When you see squirrels running and zig-zagging in your 

yard, they are doing this to avoid capture by a predator. 

• Baby squirrels are only about an inch long when they’re 

born. 

• There are 285 species of squirrels and they can be found 

in every continent except Antarctica and Australia. 

• Squirrels have four toes on the front feet and five on the 

back feet. 

• Squirrels will twitch their tails to alert other squirrels 

to possible danger. 

• Squirrels have more than one nest. If one gets destroyed 

or infested with insects, they always have a back-up. 

TWRC Wildlife Center is a 38-year-old non-profit in Houston that rehabilitates 

injured and orphaned wildlife with the goal of releasing 

healthy animals back to the wild. If you love wildlife and want to

KINDNESS MATTERS 

From: http://www.glgc.com/kindness/why.html 

Why Be Kind? Kindness leads to many of the virtues to which we value 

and desire and can lead us wherever we want to go: to a happier life, 

to being more Christ-like, to enlightenment, to making a difference in 

this world, to raising loving and kind children. The reasons for being 

kind are innumerable. Here are just a few: 

• Being kind feels good. Doing something for someone else really does 

make us feel good. Just as running releases endorphins, so does kindness. 

Make someone smile and you’ll feel better for having done so. 

• God smiles on kindness. Whether we are Christian, Jewish, Muslim 

or Buddhist, kindness is an important part of the exhortations of all 

these religions. Both Buddha and Christ were kind and encouraged 

their followers to be likewise. 

• Kindness broadens our perspective. In order to be kind, we have to 

pay attention to what is happening around us. As we notice more things 

and help others, we get a glimpse of other ways of looking at things. A 

broader perspective helps us to keep things in context. 

• Kindness softens our heart. When we look for kind deeds, beauty and 

the opportunity for kindness, we’ll find that we are more compassionate 

and more tolerant. As we practice empathy, it opens our heart to others. 

• Kindness brightens our world. When we are kind to people, it makes 

them happy. The more people who experience kindness from us, the 

more happy people will be in our lives. When those around us are 

happier, our world becomes a brighter, lighter place to live. 

• Kindness helps people feel respected and less alone. By recognizing 

someone’s need for help and acting on it in a compassionate manner, it 

makes the recipient feel valued. It also makes the giver feel better about 

themselves and more connected. 

• Kindness makes people want to be around us. One of the most 

common responses to kindness is gratitude. People appreciate what 

we’ve done for them. Our kindness is very attractive, so they want to 

be around us and actually seek us out. The Buddha lists this as one of 

the eleven impacts of loving kindness, but he put it even more strongly, 

saying: “Loving kindness will make people love you.” 

• Kindness bears wonderful fruit. Kindness begets kindness, openness, 

health and reduces the effects of stress on our bodies and our hearts. 

In many ways, kindness is like Liquid Plumber for the soul: it opens us 

up, clears out the dross and dwells lightly in our hearts. 

• Kindness begets kindness. When you are kind to others, the impact 

of your action doesn’t stop there. Many times the recipient of your 

kindness and others who see or hear about your kindness are inspired 

to be kinder. The ripples of kindness are truly endless. 

• Your kids will learn from your example. When you are kind to friends and 

acquaintances, your kids will be more likely to be kind as well. People 

often treat their children with kindness, but can be short with a crazy 

driver, strangers or others outside the family. This can cause “us and 

them” thinking that devalues others as “less” than ourselves. Kindness 

breeds tolerance and understanding. 

GET INTO THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT! 

Feeling a little bah-humbug? Want to be the Grinch and stay that way? 

It is OKAY! Not everyone can get into the holiday mood, but you can at 

least try! Here are 10 ways to get into the holiday spirit! 

1. Reach out to family and friends. Make phone calls to parents, siblings, 

aunts and uncles, cousins, whomever you can reach. Ask how they’re 

doing, exchange news and feelings and express your love for them. 

2. Decorate the house. Hang up lights in front of your house, put up 

decorations, do everything! Hang wreaths on your front door and put 

up flashy lights to show off your spirit! The more decorations you have, 

the more festive you’ll feel! 

3. Listen to holiday music. Listening to holiday music will pump you up 

for the holidays! Play holiday music in the car, at home or just when 

you have free time. As you listen, think of all the exciting things that 

come with the holidays! 

4. Volunteer. You will immediately see, feel and soak in how blessed 

YOU ARE. 

5. Throw a party! Have a get together with people you haven’t seen in 

a long time and express yourself as much as you want. After all, it’s the 

holidays, a period of celebration. 


6. Go see some holiday lights. If you have nothing better to do, go to 

your nearest festival to look at the beautiful holiday lights. During the 

nighttime, let yourself be mesmerized by the illuminating lights wrapped 

around trees and ornaments. 

7. Watch some holiday movies. What better way to get into the holiday 

spirit than by watching the classics? If movies don’t cut it or you simply 

don’t have the time, take a few minutes to watch some holiday videos. 

There are plenty online that will lift your mood and get you all pepped 

up for the holidays! 

8. Eat seasonal food (with healthy ingredients!) Bake holiday cookies 

shaped like turkeys, Christmas trees, Santa, elves, presents, anything! 

After all, a baker’s imagination is endless. If you want to be fancier, cook 

some holiday food that your parents used to make you. 

9. Gift kindness, in all forms. It has become a tradition to buy presents 

and gift them to your loved ones during the holiday season. 

The holidays are a time of appreciation and love. Don’t forget about 

those random acts of kindness to whomever, just because. 

10. Have fun! It’s alright if everything isn’t perfect and in fact, that just 

proves you’re human. In a couple of years, you’ll all be laughing about 

disastrous moments during the holiday season and it’ll all be fine!

HEALTHIER INGREDIENTS FOR A HEALTHIER HOLIDAY 

You can make trouble-free recipe substitutions that will not sacrifice 

the flavor, but will result in a healthier recipe outcome. Check out 

these healthier holiday ingredient alternatives: 

Instead of sour cream or cream cheese, try: Greek yogurt 

Greek yogurt makes a wonderful protein-packed creamy substitution 

in a variety of dishes and sweet treats. Dips, salad dressings, creamy 

casseroles and cheesecake recipes are just a few recipes to try. For 

best results choose the plain Greek yogurt variety. 

Instead of bread crumbs, try: Coconut flour 

Add crunch to your lean protein sources or veggies with coconut 

flour, an ingredient that offers more protein, fiber and vitamins than 

traditional breadcrumbs. Even better, you are offering holiday guests 

a gluten-free food option. 

Instead of added sugars, try: Fruit puree 

Most baked goods are packed with added sugars. For a natural 

sweetness and additional fiber try adding pureed fruits like dates 

or banana to replace some or the entire sweetener in baked goods. 

Instead of heavy cream, try: Tofu 

Substitute heavy cream with silken tofu to add protein and reduce 

fat content in your holiday recipes. Pureed tofu can be used in puddings, 

milk bases or sauces. Your vegan friends will be thrilled with 

this recipe substitution. 

Instead of using oils in baked goods, try: 

Unsweetened applesauce or bean puree 

Replace at least half of the oil in your favorite baked goods with 

unsweetened applesauce or bean puree. The substitution will help 

maintain a moist baked good while not altering the taste. 

Instead of potatoes, try: Cauliflower 

Keep your carbohydrate side dishes in check this holiday season 

by substituting cauliflower for potatoes in mashed potatoes. Cooked 

cauliflower can be mashed up easily to create a consistency and flavor 

similar to mashed potatoes.

Boy Scout Troop 584 was living the Boy Scout 

Oath when Hurricane Harvey struck the community 

of Katy Texas. “To help other people at 

all times” resulted in the Troop volunteering 

over 600 hours to assist in rescuing stranded 

residents, cleaning out flooded homes and 

assisting at local crisis centers. 

Every day we would receive requests from 

members of our Troop with a list of homes or 

businesses that needed help. There were a few 

troop families that were flooded and needed 

help but many others were friends of Troop 

families. In some cases, we randomly drove 

into neighborhoods and went door to door 

asking if anyone needed help. In other cases, 

we would be at a house doing clean up and 

just moved to the neighbor next door or across 

the street. There was so many houses that we 

didn’t know the owner, just went in to help. 

They started doing water rescues on the 

Tuesday, August 27th and that moved right 

into house cleanups. They didn’t miss a day. 

Since the boys were out of school, they worked 

every day until school returned September 

11th. The troop split up into different crews 

and went to as many houses as they could. It 

wasn’t uncommon for us to be in 3-5 houses 

per day. Since the boys went back to school, 

we have still been doing weekend cleanups. 

All of the work was focused in Cinco Ranch, 

Kelliwood and Grand Lakes Subdivisions. The 

boys never went into any house and were 

concerned with the size or amount of work to 

be done. They just knew that they had to get 

started, work hard and get the job completed. 

Every project we did was big but after the first 

day or 2, it was like a well oiled machine. Almost 

every house required complete removal of all 

furniture, sheetrock, insulation, doors, moldings, 

cabinets, bathroom fixtures and flooring. 

The boys learned what needed to be done and 

took on varying roles on each crew. Some were 

doing sheetrock, some doing base boards, others 

removing doors, some doing the carrying to 

the curbs and lastly the ones on clean up duty. 

Every boy had a role and was focused on the 

tasks. Some houses were very small and some 

were enormous. But the damage and losses 

were just as impactful to every home owner or 

business owner, regardless of size. 

The boys learned so much. The first was “Be 

Prepared.” They learned of how to prepare 

for a crisis and how to handle it. They learned 

how to coordinate priorities for clean up. They 

learned how to cooperate and work as a team. 

And most of all, they learned how to give back 

to the community and neighbors with no expectations. 

I never heard one boy complain 

about the long hours, sore muscles or being 

tired. At the end of every day they went home, 

showered and woke up the next day ready 

to tackle more houses on the list. One of the 

biggest things they saw and experienced was 

“humanity and compassion.” Being part of a 

community where so many people were helping, 

where strangers would bring them water 

and sandwiches, where people gave them 

tools and supplies. It opened their hearts for 

the people that were impacted. 

It was one of the proudest times I have had 

in the Troop. Giving their time and effort with 

no expectation for anything in return made 

every parent so proud. To see the boys act like 

young adults was amazing. They worked hard 

and had fun. They might have just struggled 

with an overloaded wheelbarrow but they 

came back into the house with a smile and 

ready for more. They bonded with each other 

and build deeper friendships as they worked. 

Seeing them tackle hard projects and use the 

skills they have learned over their years in Boy 

Scouts was great to observe.

ATTENTION! PET POOPS / YOU SCOOP 

Please be respectful of community grounds and 

neighbors’ yards. If your pet poops during your walk, 

be prepared to scoop and trash. Come with a scooper 

and a recycled grocery bag or anything else. It may 

not be the most fabulous way to walk your pet, but it 

does show your respect for every homeowner and our 

beautiful community. 

PLEASE NOTE - PETS ON LEASHES 

It is the law in Fort Bend County that all pets must be vaccinated for rabies, 

registered and restrained. All animals, when outside of an owner’s 

means of restraint (i.e., in a fenced back yard), must be on a leash. For the 

safety of all residents, please use all precautions with your pets and 

keep them on leashes when walking pets in the community EVEN IF 

YOU FEEL YOUR PET IS HARMLESS. If you see ANY animal roaming freely 

in the neighborhood, immediately call Animal Control at 281-342-1512. 

Even if you recognize the animal, be very careful approaching it, as you 

do not know how it will react; if you can safely retrieve the animal, then 

call the owner. Otherwise, Animal Control is your best and safest option. 

FORT BEND COUNTY “LEASH LAW” 

Animal control authorities are permitted to enter your Property to patrol and 

remove pets. Pets must be registered, licensed and inoculated as required 

by law. 

As a dog owner, you are responsible for the control of your dog. If your dog is 

one that ‘makes objectionable noise,’ you must make every effort to respect 

your Neighbor’s right to their ‘peace and quiet.’ 

Please respect other resident’s right to walk the common area ground without 

fear of attack from an unleashed dog. 

Laws are written to ensure that owned animals are confined to their 

property or kept on a leash to free a community of unrestrained and 

free-roaming animals. Although most dog bites occur on the property 

where the dog lives, unrestrained or free-roaming dogs do pose a substantial 

threat to the public. In addition, unrestrained animals are at 

increased risk of being bitten by rabies infected wildlife. Enforcement 

of restraint laws is essential in enhancing the animal control program’s 

efforts to reduce the risk of rabies in our community. 

LICENSING OF DOGS AND CATS 

The primary benefit of licensing animals is identification, 

should that animal become lost. Licensing also: 

• Ensures that rabies vaccination are current. 

• Allows for quick identification in case of a bite incident. 

• Provides revenue to offset the administration costs of the 

animal control program. 

VACCINATION 

Rabies vaccinations are a prerequisite for licensing dogs and cats because 

they are an important control measure for the public health threat 

of rabies. In addition to protecting pets, rabies vaccinations provide a 

barrier between infected wild animals and humans. 

When your dog is not in your yard, it is imperative that you keep your dog on 

a leash at all times. While your dog is friendly to you and your family, imagine 

the consequences if it were to harm someone while it was ‘roaming free.’ 


HOLIDAY PET SAFETY TIPS 

The holiday season is upon us and many pet parents plan to include their 

furry companions in the festivities. As you gear up for the holidays, it is 

important to try to keep your pet’s eating and exercise habits as close to 

their normal routine as possible. Also, please be sure to steer pets clear of 

the following unhealthy treats, toxic plants and dangerous decorations. 

BE CAREFUL WITH SEASONAL PLANTS AND DECORATIONS 

• Oh, Christmas Tree: Securely anchor your Christmas tree so it doesn’t 

tip and fall, causing possible injury to your pet. This will also prevent the 

tree water - which may contain fertilizers that can cause stomach upset 

- from spilling. Stagnant tree water is a breeding ground for bacteria 

and your pet could end up with nausea or diarrhea should he imbibe. 

• Avoid Mistletoe & Holly: Holly, when ingested, can cause pets to suffer 

nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Mistletoe can cause gastrointestinal upset 

and cardiovascular problems. And many varieties of lilies can cause 

kidney failure in cats if ingested. Opt for just-as-jolly artificial plants 

made from silk or plastic, or choose a pet-safe bouquet. 

• Tinsel-less Town: Kitties love this sparkly, light-catching “toy” that’s 

easy to bat around and carry in their mouths. But a nibble can lead to a 

swallow, which can lead to an obstructed digestive tract, severe vomiting, 

dehydration and possible surgery. It’s best to brighten your boughs with 

something other than tinsel. 

• That Holiday Glow: Don’t leave lighted candles unattended. Pets may 

burn themselves or cause a fire if they knock candles over. Be sure to 

use appropriate candle holders, placed on a stable surface. And if you 

leave the room, put the candle out! 

• Wired Up: Keep wires, batteries and glass or plastic ornaments out 

of paws’ reach. A wire can deliver a potentially lethal electrical shock 

and a punctured battery can cause burns to the mouth and esophagus, 

while shards of breakable ornaments can damage your pet’s mouth 

and digestive tract. 

AVOID HOLIDAY FOOD DANGERS 

• Skip the Sweets: By now you know not to feed your pets chocolate and 

anything sweetened with xylitol, but do you know the lengths to which 

an enterprising pet will go to chomp on something yummy? Make sure 

to keep your pets away from the table and unattended plates of food, 

and be sure to secure the lids on garbage cans. 

• Leave the Leftovers: Fatty, spicy and no-no human foods, as well as 

bones, should not be fed to your furry friends. Pets can join the festivities 

in other fun ways that won’t lead to costly medical bills. 

• Careful with Cocktails: If your celebration includes adult holiday beverages, 

be sure to place your unattended alcoholic drinks where pets 

cannot get to them. If ingested, your pet could become weak, ill and may 

even go into a coma, possibly resulting in death from respiratory failure. 

• Selecting Special Treats: Looking to stuff your pet’s stockings? Stick with 

chew toys that are basically indestructible, Kongs that can be stuffed with 

healthy foods or chew treats that are designed to be safely digestible. 

Long, stringy things are a feline’s dream, but the most risky toys for cats 

involve ribbon, yarn and loose little parts that can get stuck in the intestines, 

often necessitating surgery. Surprise kitty with a new ball that’s 

too big to swallow, a stuffed catnip toy or the interactive cat dancer. 

Plan a Pet-Safe Holiday Gathering 

• House Rules: If your animal-loving guests would like to give your pets a 

little extra attention and exercise while you’re busy tending to the party, 

ask them to feel free to start a nice play or petting session. 

• Put the Meds Away: Make sure all of your medications are locked behind 

secure doors, and be sure to tell your guests to keep their meds zipped 

up and packed away, too. 

• A Room of Their Own: Give your pet his own quiet space to retreat 

to—complete with fresh water and a place to snuggle. Shy pups and cats 

might want to hide out under a piece of furniture, in their carrying case 

or in a separate room away from the hubbub. 

• New Year’s Noise: As you count down to the new year, please keep in 

mind that strings of thrown confetti can get lodged in a cat’s intestines, 

if ingested, perhaps necessitating surgery. Noisy poppers can terrify pets 

and cause possible damage to sensitive ears. And remember that many 

pets are also scared of fireworks, so be sure to secure them in a safe, 

escape-proof area as midnight approaches.

Start your journey here, experience the night hope was born. Journey to

In 2016, nearly 6,000 guests followed the winding trail, led by experienced

Joseph took centuries ago. Your travels will lead you through the village of 

Nazareth, into the camp of the Magi, past the Roman census and open-air 

markets of Judea, ultimately ending at the simple manger where Christmas 

began and hope was born. For the last fifteen years, Current - A Christian 

Church has been presenting this event to the Katy community. Each year 

the event grows. With live animals and more than 200 actors in costume, 

Journey to Bethlehem, is an annual tradition for many and serves to remind 

everyone who participates of the true meaning and impact of Christmas.
