The guy second from right is Ray Snokhous and he received the commemorative Medal Of Saint Agnes of Bohemia during a ceremony in the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Washington, D.C. Snokhous, who serves as the Honorary Consul General of the Czech Republic for Texas, was among three men receiving this special award of the Czech Archdiocese on September 25, 2011.
The day began with Solemn Mass celebrating the 170th birthday of composer Antonin Dvorak and the 200th anniversary of the year of Saint John Nepomucene Neumann's birth.
The West resident received the medal for his "ardent involvement promoting Czech heritage and culture in the United States and monetary support of the renovation of several village churches in the Czech Republic." pretty fantastic.

I'm going to have a Halloween Party at WRH on the 20th. I need some ideas for sandwiches. I will cut them out with Halloween cookie cutters...but not sure what would be a good idea. They liked the ham salad sandwiches I made for the tea party, but would like to do something different. It will soon be 2 years I have been doing this..Need K. to see if she can figure out exactly when that will be and maybe have an anniversary party. Think it was in March. Maybe i should check my blog..duh!..

Hope your leg gets better.

Good looking youths coming up ....must be the AIR in that town. ;0)
Your news sounds like the news from our Little Town. I agree - some good looking kiddos!
See you here on Wednesday.
I'd vote for any of those lovelies for Homecoming Queen!
Wow... never ceases to amaze me how nice they grow in West, TX.
I don't think that real estate company sent me the listings you posted. I get about 5 or 6 a week with pictures in my E-mail. I'd like to have a pond but I bet it was just a hole for most of this summer. :P
I like your idea for the Halloween sandwiches -- use something soft that's easy to cut, like egg salad. Tell them it's chopped up eyeballs or something -- no, that's too gross.
