Mom's Gift

My Mother loved the Smilebox slideshow I emailed her a few days before Mother's day. But my two brothers and sister were very jealous. Oh well the oldest is usaully the smartest anyway............ Now what order were we born in? I didn't say the oldest has the best memory did I or did I.

HI MOM

Tracie Hester/Life Donor Walk

The 1st Annual Tracie Hester/Life Donor Walk will take place on Saturday October 4th at Austin High School. The event is being made possible by both Austin/Travis High School DECA and Fine Arts Departments and will start at 2pm.


The goal of this event is to provide continuing funding for the scholarships that bear Tracie's name and to sign people up as Life Donor's to help people that are in need of transplants.


The schools are looking for volunteers for:

* Sponsorship from local businesses
* Registration
* T-Shirts
* Food/Beverage Service
* Tents
* Balloon Release
* Participant Book
* Life Donor Table

The event is FREE to the public but donations will be ACCEPTED!

So if you would like to help please contact Meredith Watassek at Meredith.Watassek@fortbend.k12.tx.us for more information and your donations.

This event will help many people in the future that need a gift of life and a gift to make a better life. So we are hoping to see one and all, as Tracie will be looking down on us with that big beautiful smile of hers knowing we all care for her and what she believed in.

SEE YA THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

School Board

I photographed the new school board here a few weeks ago and enjoyed meeting the new members. They have a very daunting job as our school district is growing so fast that it has to be very hectic to keep up with all the changes. I wish them the best in keeping our district one of the best in the country.

This Summer

Well this summer is over and we had a great one. We didn't make it out to California but we did go to the beach some and to our bay house. We also went to New Braunfels for a few days and had a great time at the water park and river. We go every year and it is always a great trip for the kids. The river was very high as you can see here so we had to float on the smaller river in town. Its only 3 miles long but we still had fun. We have had so much rain this year that all the rivers are full. Next year we hope that we can take a longer trip down it.

The wedding of Brettney

My neice will be getting married soon and I thought I'd share a few images with you. She's a great young lady and she is marrying a fine young man. They are in school at Texas A&M and have not decided if they will stay or move into Houston. Everyone in both families are excited for them and are looking forward to the wedding. Good luck and best wishes.
