Holiday Pet Safety Guide … The holidays bring joy and potential hazards for our pets. Here is how to keep your furry family members safe this season. … While the dishes we serve our loved ones may be delicious, our pets’ stomachs are not designed for holiday menus. At Westridge, we often see a wave of “post-holiday” tummy troubles. The holidays are the most common times we treat pets for gastritis, colitis, and pancreatitis, which can be caused by the well-intentioned sharing of festive foods.

This Christmas, the Frank family understands what the greatest gift truly is. It is not wrapped. It cannot be placed under a tree. It is life itself, restored through healing and faith tested in the fire. For Jeff and Faith Frank, the past eleven months stripped away nearly everything they owned. Their savings vanished. They lost their home. Plans to build were dissolved. What they gained instead cannot be measured in dollars or square footage.

When Amberly and Shawn Stussy began their remodel in 2018, their vision was clear. They wanted to create a home where their family could gather, celebrate, and make memories for years to come. Tucked away on Jack Cullen Drive, with one of Texarkana’s most breathtaking backyard views, their home captures the essence of warmth, comfort, and character, especially during the holiday season. … Inspired by their travels to the Texas Hill Country, the resort-style pool invites relaxation.

I still remember the exact moment everything shifted, the moment the air left the room, the moment time split into “before” and “after.” Gideon was only sixteen months old, full of giggles and sunshine, when a doctor looked at us with steady eyes and said the words that would reroute the entire trajectory of our lives.“Your son’s MRI shows a rare and aggressive brain tumor.” … I do not remember what I said or did not say. I do not remember how long I sat there in silence. What I do remember is the feeling.
