Washinton DC

Joey and Bayleigh left for DC on Wednesday and will be home on Monday. They are having a fabulous time on their daddy/daughter vacation. They are both very "into" the museums and knowledge.

Jolie's Dance Recital

Here's a pic of Jolie during their tap performance to "Boots are Made for Walking." And a pic of her and Joey with her flowers.

Keeping Busy

I'm not posting as often as I used to...the newspaper keeps me busy! The paper is going well. I just published the 5th issue. I'm in my office on Main Street now - and it's fun having visitors stop in.

Kids are doing great. School is out for Bayleigh and she is stoked about that. She got fabulous scores on her TAKS tests again this year. She was commended in all three sections; math, reading, writing. She even had a perfect score in one of them (my mind can't remember which one right now). Bayleigh spent last week at VBS. One of the days they took them to the animal shelter where they made adoption care packages for the animals. She loved that.

Jolie is going to pre-school MWF and loves it. She goes to the Goddard School in Leander. They are fabulous! Joey drops her off on his way into work and one of us picks her up, depending on our schedules. She just completed her first year of ballet/tap dance at Studio 203. They had their recital yesterday and it was so cute. I'll post some pics soon. She loves dancing!

Joey is still working hard at his job. On the weekends, he likes to do work on our land with his tractor. We purchased 5 additional acres from our neighbor - so it attaches to our 5. Eventually, we'd like to fence all 10 acres off so we can have some animals.

I think that's it for now.....will try to post on a more timely basis!

Mamaw Rizzo's 90th Birthday Party

We went to Beaumont for Mamaw's 90th birthday party. She had a great turnout. The kids had fun helping serve cake and punch.
