This past week my 15 year-old, Rebecca, and I went down to the new DPS Super-Center (Department of Public Safety) in order to get her a Learners Permit to drive! We decided that the best way to do driver’s ed with our busy schedule is to do the parent taught course… So far, there have been some serious ups and downs. I think B [...]

Learners Permit – A big step
This past week my 15 year-old, Rebecca, and I went down to the new DPS Super-Center (Department of Public Safety) in order to get her a Learners Permit to drive! We decided that the best way to do driver’s ed with our busy schedule is to do the parent taught course… So far, there have been some serious ups and downs. I think B [...]

Never before in school history has the soccer team won so many g [...]
Magnolia Lady Bulldog Soccer
What a ride our oldest daughter, Rebecca, has taken us on this school year! As many of you know, Becca is a freshman at Magnolia High School. She has played soccer since she was a wee-child and competitively played for many years with a select club. The club had it’s ups and downs but one thing you can sure say is it created a great [...]
Magnolia Soccer
So far this year is our first of 6 years in Magnolia High School Soccer. My oldest, Becca, is a freshman and the starting left back on the team. She plays almost all of the minutes of the game and does a fairly decent job. I was a little concerned about a 14 year old going against some of the top 17-18 year old forwards. I knew she had th [...]
Singer / Songwriter Camp
My oldest daughter decided to tackle a singer/songwriter camp this summer out at Dosey Doe. Real Life Real Music, I have mentioned them before in a blog post, put together a great week-long camp where the students write their own song, record it, and then perform it for the public. Kyle Hutton did a wonderful job helping my daughter with th [...]

Becca has to go to the high school that consists of 87 students. 8 of them are girls. The rest are large male football players. When Becca went this past Wednesday, she was th [...]
Soccer Saga – The hearbreak of ...
It was a rough weekend. Becca and I drove to San Marcus to win a state championship as you have read on the previous post. Becca and I had a great drive, dinner, social aspect before the games but the games themselves were a completely different story.
As I have expressed before, Rebecca is on this team to try to build some leadership sk [...]
State Championship Tournament
How many of you can claim to be ‘State Champions’? It doesn’t matter what the sport, the event, the competition… How many of you are winners at the state level? Whenever I hear, “Lets win STATE” or “State Champs”, etc… I think of Texas High School Football. It was the ultimate dream for [...]
Dosey Doe and the Night Life
A few weeks ago we were invited to attend a concert/music series at the famous Dosey Does in The Woodlands. I have never been to Dosey Does but have driven by it a hundred times. This is an old barn that came from Kentucky and was rebuilt off the interstate 45. It is one of the premier music halls in the Houston area. Acoustically it is f [...]
Photo Shoot for the Girls
Last weekend we met the Gonzalez family at The Woodlands for a photo shoot for their family. It was a hot day but we were able to get some pretty decent shots. The Gonzalez girls and my girls are the best of friends. Great to see them clowning and having a ball.
This past week has been a bear. Work kicking it into high gear. I had 2 [...]
