West Oso Girls Lose to Kennedale!!!




Great job lady bears for taking Kennedale down to the wire before losing 60-59. Wish I could have been there in person but was able to follow the game on caller.com. Girls lost a heart-breaker but did the community proud in fighting to the end. Coach Williams is by far one of the best coaches in Texas. Know he has a good group of girls coming up in a couple of years. Hope he can find someone to fill the shoes of Thomas and Guy next year. Boys have a great chance of making it to state by winning tonight against a team from San Antonio.

JAZZ AND STEVO AT THE LAKE

Jess and I took Stevo and Jazz to a lake here in El Paso to try and catch some fish. This is one of the first times we ever tried to catch fish in fresh water. Bought real worms and catfish bait but nothing was biting. Kids got a kick out of playing with the worms. Prefer salt water fishing but had a good time anyway.

El Paso Half Marathon


Running in the El paso half marathon this weekend. Have been sick all week and haven't been able to train as much as I would have liked but think I'll be okay. This will be the first time I have attempted 13 miles. Goal is to finish at about 2:15. Have a full race schedule this month. Running a 10 k and the transmountain 20 k later this month. Hoping to work my way up to a marathon in the next few months.

West Oso Girls make it to State!






Glad to see the West Oso girls earning that trip to State that they deserve. 2 wins away from a State Championship. coach williams is one of the best coaches around. Glad I had the opportunity to learn from him last year. Good luck to Coach Simmons and the rest of the staff.

Great Weekend


Stevo played his second basketball game for his new team this weekend. Plays for the Spurs at the Galatzan recreation center. His team won 40-10. His team is made up of 6, 7, and 8 year old kids. Find out this week what team he will be drafted to for Frank Manning Little league baseball. Jazxz will probably start playing soccer next month at the Y. Ran the Race for the cure this Sunday. Improved on my time (ran 29:40). Still slower than Jason Kidd getting traded to the Mavericks but it's geting better. Geting ready to train for the El paso half-marathon on March 2nd. First time I will attempt to run 13 miles. Jess walked the 5k after my race. Thousands of people. Race was well organized but some people complained about not being able to get on the base in time to run.
