My cousin...Mia Grace De Keratry.

I told everybody I would get an update sooner or later. Mia was born at Round Rock's Scott and White hospital on August 9th, 2008. She was 8 pounds 7 ounces and 20 inches long. The picture shows Mia on the day she was born, its now been three weeks and looks noticeably different. She's doing great and is in perfect health! Its about time Henry learns how to wipe a babies butt.

Besides the new addition to the family, there hasn't been to much goin on lately. Poker is still relatively slow but on that note, congrats to Justin Thurman for taking the last tournament down, nice one. I'm hoping we still keep our poker tradition alive despite the drastic decline in popularity.

Our trip to Las Vegas last year was a blast! We need to plan another Big O outing soon or its gonna drive me crazy! And Rico, thumbs down to Imperial Palace, never again. However, Jim, Rico and myself need to keep the El Cortez breakfast menu on the "to do list." Anyway, thats all I have this time guys and gals, hope to see everybody at the next tourny whenever that may be.

Congrats to Henry and Carol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to give everybody an idea, this picture is from Shawn's recent visit to his birthplace, Hawaii. Just thought I'd put a shot up to give everybody a little glimpse of what is probably the closest thing we have to paradise. For those of you who don't know Shawn, he's Rockys cousin. He's played poker with us a couple times.

As far as the last tournament is concerned, I guess you could say I earned honorable mention for comin in fourth. "If you not first, your last." Great quote from Talladega nights, if you haven't seen it, its one for the DVD collection.

More importantly, Henry and Carol are about to have a baby!! Time went by too fast, its already that time. Family and friends have cast their votes for the babies weight, size, due date, and last but not least, the babies gender. I think I'll be right on, who knows. I'll keep everybody posted with the babies stats, if thats the right word. This was a relatively short posting but wanted to keep the blog updated. Hope all is well!
