Locale 

“We have lived here in Cypress area since July 2013. We like living in this 

area because it’s where we built our first home and we have family nearby. 

Also because everything is nearby and has had many new developments 

like Boardwalk, beautiful parks, great schools, restaurants, stores, etc. The 

area means a lot to us because we come to see how communities come 

together to help and support neighbors in times of need. We have also 

meet great neighbors that have become great friends.” 

Long Awaited Spring 

Their favorite spring time tradition as a family is picking out their cowboy and cowgirl 

wear for Rodeo Day, and then head down to NRG to enjoy the Rodeo food and 

concerts. Of course, the kids have a blast at the carnival! 

The Easter Bunny is Coming to Town: “For Easter each year as a family, we like to go 

to brunch together, followed by Easter church service and we like to host a BBQ with 

close friends and family. Our Easter tradition is an Easter egg hunt for kids, we always 

make baskets for our kids filled with their favorite goodies, and bake and decorate an 

Easter theme cake.” 

And he’s good to me: The kids’ Easter baskets and usually filled with toys, candies, 

shirts and each kid’s favorite goodies based on their favorite character or hobby. 

What’s it all about: To this family, the true meaning of Easter is the “religious 

celebration celebrating the resurrection of Jesus. Also a time to get together with close 

family and friends and spend quality time together.” 

Heart to Heart 

“One of our biggest challenges was learning that not 

everyone is as understanding towards special needs and 

some lack knowledge to Autism. We went from having 

such hard times making a grocery trip or taking my kids 

to a playground because some would look at my son as 

their definition of normal and due to his sensory overload 

moments adults would stare or make rude comments 

when he would stim or have a moment. Children around 

him always seem to be much more understanding than 

adults, but we have come such a long way from letting 

that turn into fear to be out in public to not letting that 

stop us and my children from enjoying life and all the 

beautiful things life has for them to explore. Now we 

enjoy the outdoors more, explore new places and travel 

more.” 

Things to Do 

This family loves to enjoy great food at local restaurants 

and attend events in the area. They are also adventurous 

in that they like to try new activities together as a family. 

We Would 

LOVE 

to Feature 

Your Family! 

Each month, one family will 

be chosen from one of our 

communities.

PROTECT ONE OF YOUR MOST VALUABLE INVESTMENTS BY 

Developing a Consistent Maintenance Schedule 

By doing some simple preventative maintenance, you can extend the life of your home and 

minimize costly repairs. 

Painting - It is important to put a good coat of paint on your home which may mean painting 

every three to five years on an average, depending on the quality of the paint. Painting 

obviously improves the appearance of your home and protects your wood or hardiplank from 

the elements reducing rot. Don’t forget your ACC application along with paint color samples, 

which must be processed and approved first! 

Power washing - Take a walk around your property. If you see green or black mildew on your 

home and driveway, you can power wash the mildew off your gutters, home exterior, driveway 

and sidewalk. This small step of maintenance can keep your property looking well maintained. 

Gutters - Gutters need to be cleaned out on a regular basis. This time of year they fill up with 

pine needles and leaves. If the gutters are full of leaves and pine needles, they will not drain 

properly and will need to be cleaned. The extra weight will cause the gutter nails to become 

loose and the gutter will sag or fall from your home. Gutters are important as they protect the 

fascia boards.

by a Cypress, Texas family whose daughter bravely fought and won, her 

battle with a rare cancerous solid tumor in 2010. Through this battle, we 

became aware of the severe lack of funding available for pediatric cancer 

research and institutions that care for these young warriors depend 

greatly on money raised by nonprofits like The Laurel’s Army Foundation.

“BE WATCHFUL, STAND FIRM IN YOUR 

FAITH,BE COURAGEOUS, BE STRONG.“ 

- 1 Corinthians, 16:13 


Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate 

a great many pests that die from various causes while in the bag. 

When you buy ‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to your home, you 

are also buying ants, roaches, termites, etc… Spend a little more 

on bagged material and save lots of future pest problems. Keep 

your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top of your homes exposed 

foundation edge/side. This will aid in minimizing pests in your 

home and allow for quick and accurate termite inspections. 

Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants at 

least 12” - 18” back from your home. Do your best to create a plant 

free zone that is 18” - 24” wide around your home. The exception 

is your lawn - it can grow up next to the slab as long as you keep 

it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab. The most conducive to termite 

infestation are groundcover plantings, growing high against your 

homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows on your walls. 

Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray 

eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to 

resist the pest onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The 

fall spray also kills pests from the summer, prevents most fungi 

from occurring over the winter and puts your valuable asset off to a 

healthy winter’s dormancy. 

Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment to stop 

brown patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin 

and weak in some areas, here are some important fundamentals: a) 

lawn aeration b) fertilization c) weed control. 

Most important is proper watering: 

• Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do 

not water.) 

• Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage. 

• In severe drought, water every 5 th day. 

• Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT. 

• A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, 

stronger and more drought resistant roots. 

• Less watering also saves you money!!
