October for the Allen's

 This month we celebrate Dylan's awesome life and Down Syndrome Awareness. Dylan certainly has enhanced our lives We have seen God's grace and works through Dylan's life. Dylan's school year is going well as a big 8th grader. He continues to know someone everywhere we might be. He experienced Jr. Slam and SLAM, youth gatherings and worship at our church this summer. He continues to attend each Sunday evening. H absolutely LOVES this fellowship and fun.
 Ashleigh's love for music continues this year as she is a member of Cane Bay Chorale and Ladies Honor Choirs. They had their first performance earlier this month. She has been busy fundraising and choir events are starting to pop up. She was selected and attended SC ACDA this past weekend. She auditioned and was selected to attend Washington, D,C. and will sing with several others great singers in her choirs. I will get to attend too (as a chaperone). She and I recently met with her guidance counselor and she is definitely on track according to her Individual Graduation Plan. (Brag time and Proud Parent moment-She is 1 out 478 students in her class.) She continues to work at Trident Medical and attend classes at Trident Tech. At the end of this month, she will take her test to obtain CNA license. She enjoys helping the kids at our church each Sunday evening and other events.
 Austin is settling into 3rd grade! He LOVES his teachers! He recently was a champ at the dentist after unfortunately undergoing a lot of dental work. He enjoys Metro Kids at church where Ashleigh is his teacher. He secretly loves this!


Our neighborhood continues to be a kindness rock haven. I love finding and hiding rocks-melts my heart. Austin found the blue rock in our neighborhood on the way home from the dentist. Recently, we attended a Food Truck Night in our neighborhood. It was humid, but the food was good. Family time is always FUN!.Can't wait for more Fall days.
