Why They Love Living in Katy<br />

“Our family has lived in Katy for over 30 years and we couldn’t imagine<br />

our children growing up in a better city. Katy has the hometown feel of<br />

the both small towns that Patrick and Melissa were born in. Patrick is<br />

originally from Lumberton, Texas and Melissa was born in Hardinsburg,<br />

Kentucky. People in Katy are friendly and always willing to lend a<br />

helping hand to their neighbors. Katy is “country” with all the amenities<br />

of the city and Houston is close enough that if you want to see a major<br />

sporting event, concert, theater, etc., you are able to. We love the<br />

people and pride in Tigerland!”<br />

What They Love to Do<br />

This family most enjoys the local parks<br />

in Katy, feeding ducks and being in<br />

the outdoors. They love to explore the<br />

local businesses in Old Katy, especially<br />

antique and resale shops where hidden<br />

treasures are often found. The Katy<br />

Rice Harvest Festival is one of their most<br />

anticipated events of the year, as well<br />

as the parade and the Katy Rodeo.<br />

Love is in the Air<br />

How They Express It: “Something you will hear many times a day in our home is one person will say<br />

‘Love y’all’ and you will hear all the other family members reply with ‘Love y’all.’ Levi is usually the first<br />

one to prompt this but we all do it when we want to. I think this makes our family unique because we<br />

do remind each other through our love language of what we mean to each other, daily.”<br />

Celebrating Valentine’s Day: The family gets in the spirit of this holiday by enjoying mom’s decorating<br />

in a special part of their home, and indulging in a nice meal together at home or at a restaurant.<br />

They give each other special tokens of their admiration for each other and of course, enjoy creating,<br />

crafting and delivering their Valentines.<br />

What Makes It Tick: They love reminding their family and friends about how much they mean to them,<br />

which is what Valentine’s Day is all about for this tribe. Keeping in mind how much Jesus loves them<br />

and how He asks them to love one another is also an important reflection on this holiday.<br />
