Women's Polo rocks!! - October 4, 2009 - 10:07 PM
Wow! I am still reeling from the Women's champuionship Tounrament events held thursday -Saturday! The Gala was a blast and the polo matches were awesome! Sunny Hasle is a one woman wrecking crew and Erica Gandomcar, who took MVP, is so underrated it's ridiculous1 these women put on a heck of a show, playing through the rain on Saturday, never giving in or up. I love all of these amazing women. i've truly been touched by the talent and the wonderful people they all are! Very different from men's polo......

2012 is going to be a great year! - January 30, 2012 - 11:12 AM
Well, it's a new year and lots of great things already done and more coming! 2011's big juicy top secret news was supposed to be the debut of my reality TV show on Style called Mothers and Daughters of Dallas. But when the network did a surprose name change to Big Rich Texas and insisted we film in a country club setting even though none of the other cast members were neither rich nor country club members, everything changed. The news release of the new name came as a shock to us cast members, not only becasue of the new name but we hadn't even begun filming! I did film one day with a great real friend (none of us cast members had ever met) but when the producer yelled cut, came over and told us we were doing great and then proceeded to tell us about the set up of the fake event they wanted us to do, what to say, etc. it was obvious there was no reality in this show. Myslef and Paula glenn left to be repaced with Pam martin and leslie Birklund. No worries! I've had some wonderful expereinces competing for Mrs. Texas as Mrs. highland park, met fab new friends in Mrs. Frisco and Mrs. Arlington and many others. I challenged myself to soemthing new and learned from the expereince. I'm doing extra work with a casting company, looking forward to seeing my hard work in Good christian Belles air on my birthday and filming for Dallas TV show this week. My son is competing in his first interscholastic away game in houston, should we win we go to Virginia, very exciting! My charity work continues, Polo on the Lawn has a new beneficiary-Wipe Out kids Cancer, I've accepted a Board position with Dress for Success Dallas and my work for eradicating domestic violence continues through Hopes Door. Stay tuned...2012 is truly going to be an amazing year!
