Neighborhood Newcomers party for us and our next door neighbors who are also new to Canyon Creek. We have made instant friends with several of the families on our block who we just love. Tells us a favorite story or two about your family (funny, sentimental, etc.).
Here are a few fun things:
Courtney & Blake Schroeder Share with us the names and ages of everyone living in your house, including your pets.
Hello, my name is Courtney Schroeder and I’m 33 years old and a Richardson native. My husband Blake is 34 years old and from Brenham, Texas. We have an 8-year-old long haired English cream miniature dachshund named Lady. Finally, we are expecting a baby boy in January 2018. Tell us about your pets: Where did you get them? Do they have any unique tricks or quirks?
Lady is from Durant, Oklahoma and she is all dachshund. She loves people, loves to be lazy, and loves attention. What do you do for a living?
My husband Blake works for Topgolf’s Corporate Office in Dallas and is on the Operation Services team. He manages all R&D projects for Topgolf. Courtney is Vice President of Croft ClaimWorks, L.C. and is an independent claims adjuster.
• Blake proposed to me in 2014 in the middle of Texas Tech’s Jones AT&T stadium. We rode with my parents to Lubbock early that morning through a torrential downpour to what I thought was a meet and greet with Kliff Kingsbury at a pregame practice. When we showed up at the field, there were no players on the field and I asked Blake’s fraternity brothers (who had helped set up everything) what time practice started to which the answer was SOON! Blake got down on bended knee in the middle of the field and the rest is history. • We love to travel and took our one year anniversary trip to Monte Carlo, Paris, and London in 2016. • On the same day we moved into our house, demolition of the entire downstairs commenced while we lived upstairs for 8 weeks while the house was being redone. It’s now perfect and we absolutely love that we’ve made it our own! • We had our Gender Reveal Party at Topgolf and the site lit up all of the targets blue. • We took our engagement photos at the State Fair of Texas a couple years ago! What do you do for hobbies or for fun?
Obviously, we love anything Texas Tech sports related, Dallas sports teams related, traveling, hanging out with friends, going to the lake, going to concerts, and doing brunch just about anywhere! Anything else you would love for your new neighbors to know about you?
We are just thrilled to be a part of the Canyon Creek community!
How did the two of you meet?
We both graduated from Texas Tech University in the same year. However, we did not know one another in college. We met through mutual friends at a Texas Tech tailgate in Lubbock, Texas in 2012. When did you move to Canyon Creek?
We moved to Canyon Creek in February 2017. What brought you to Canyon Creek? Where did you live before you came here?
We knew we wanted to move to Canyon Creek for some time because it is such a close knit community. The location is ideal, the neighborhood fits our lifestyle, and the schools are excellent. Prior to our move, we lived in the Crowley Park neighborhood just on the other side of 75. What do you love most (so far) about living in Canyon Creek?
Our neighbors!!! Within the first month of us moving in, all of the neighbors on our street got together and organized a welcome www.CanyonCreekLifeMedia.com
