Well this month there is Rodeo Houston!  Many pics and lots of fun going on in Houston.  The weather's been kind of cool and sometimes cold, but that's OK.  We are Texans and we can handle all kinds of weather, especially HOT   ... Oh and spring breaks are around the corner, so let's take care of our kids and watch out for them.  They are our future, so let's lead by example this month and every month.  Go Texans!  

HOW ABOUT THEM TEXANS LOOSING TO DALLAS?!!!  WELL WE WATCHED AND WERE AMAZED AT HOW BAD THEY WERE PLAYING.  THANK GOODNESS ONE TEXAS TEAM WON ... GO DALLAS!

Welcome to my blog. I am new to this so I'll try inputting information that's interesting as it happens. 

One of the things I've learned while living in the northwest is that Katy, Cypress, and northwest Houston are great places to live.  The northwest corridor from Houston has great school districts and exemplary schools!  Many award winning students have come from these northwest areas and some have gone on to become famous people.  Do you know of any?
