Greetings XCITE Family!
We haven’t kept in touch as much as I promised, but we think about our XCITE Family often. We miss bringing smiles through our birthday parties and the bonds we built in the community over ice cream. A lot has changed since I last updated you!
The kiddos are growing up. Do you remember our youngest son? Can you believe he is now 5’11 and in a size 14 shoe? He completed 9th and 10th grade last year so he will be starting the 11th grade. Our daughter Cai is now 17 and starting her senior year. She has her sights set on attending an international law school. Our oldest son has changed career fields and is learning cybersecurity.
We truly enjoyed our 3.5 years in Mexico. We made incredible friends as we continued our mission of community impact through our non-profit, The Hardy Brothers Foundation (www.hardybrosfoundation.org). We donated money, volunteered our time, and even adopted a community to provide food and medical supplies.
We are now spending time in Africa as we continue living out our purpose of making a difference. One of those ways is through a non-profit, Humanitarian Global Alliance (www.ppeforall.org), where we aim to provide PPE to anyone who needs it, particularly underserved communities.
I’ve also written 4 books, which can be found on Barnes & Noble, Ingram Spark, and Amazon that discuss overcoming generational trauma. One of the books is an anti-suicide book geared toward today’s youth who are facing emotional challenges. You can find more information on www.ChlarissaHarrison.com. I also offer coaching to our youth to help them find their way at www.yourinnermojo.com.
Last but not least, we would like to share some additional FUN and EXCITING news. There is a new, phenomenal laser tag company in town! TAGS Laser Quest!! TAGS is owned by former XCITE customers (Tyler, Ava, Grady & Shelby = TAGS 🥹🥰) who have become family. (Little Ava was our bestest hostess at XCITE's Sweet Connections!) I couldn't decide on my favorite pictures with this beautiful family, so now you have a few! Haha
Side note: Tyler is also a gifted woodworker (as seen by the beautiful handmade piece in the photo that was engraved by another small business owner and friend, Sherry Newsome Murphy, called Creative Sonshine, LLC. She is just as amazing!)
