KATY...........MASTERS AND THE FEAST

WELL I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE FEAST THE TROESTERS PUT ON AND I CAN HARDLY MOVE. ATE WAY TOO MUCH AND THE PORK WAS TO DIE FOR.
AND MY GOD WAY TOO MANY DESSERTS AND SUCH.
BUT THE IMPORTANT PART WAS KATY OF COURSE AND HER MASTERS DEGREE.
AS THE YEARS GO ON I ALWAYS WONDER IF I MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES WHEN I PICK THE SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS.
WHEN THEY MAKE THE DEANS LIST...GO ON TO GRADUATE IT HELPS TO VALIDATE MY CHOICES.
MUCH LESS A MASTER DEGREE AND I AM SO PROUD OF KATY.
BUT THEN AGAIN SHE IS A MAZEPPA GIRL AND I AM A BIT PARTIAL TO MY HOMETOWN.

JESS AND JOSH

WELL JESS AND JOSH HAD THEIR NEW BUNDLE OF JOY.
LITTLE GIRL AGAIN AND THIS ONE IS NAMED RYLEE.
COULDN'T BE HAPPIER FOR THE GREAT YOUNG COUPLE.
