Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve written on my site (relatively speaking). Since I’ve never “updated my status” on Facebook, I guess I’ll do it here. Plenty has been going on lately. My band, Knee Deep, is doing very well. We played Old Town Alexandria, outside of Washington D.C., this weekend. We also had the pleasure of a guest performance by singer/songwriter/musician and touring member of the cast of STOMP, Justin Myles (www.JustinMyles.net). The show was absolutely great. Quick run-down, Craig – Bass, Matt – Guitar, Mike – Drums, and myself as the frontman – vocalist. Wasn’t able to get pictures this time though. Uh, what else, Taylor (my 6 year old) will be here soon and we are excited about his arrival. He just turned 6 so we will be buying even more trains soon. He LOVES trains! Today is my lovely wife Julie’s Birthday! I am too intelligent to say her actual age, but lets just say, she is still the “baby” of the group! I completed the start-up of my photography business, XOphoto (www.XOphotoUS.com)! It is a project that I’ve been wanting to develop for some time. It is finally off the ground and besides having taken quite a few shoots so far, I’ve started to book Weddings! So, write myself and my business partner if you want to have your family, event, etc photographed.

All of this good news pales in comparison to this bit of news. Julie and myself are having our first baby! I know, about time right!!! We found out the morning of Mother’s Day. The Perfect Mother’s Day present. She immediately had to go buy baby socks upon finding out, it was awesome! We were trying and then it happened! Angela, I told you I didn’t need 3 months, a few weeks was sufficient! It’s like the pregnant bug is going around! Angela, Libby, now Julie, Shreaka hold your breathe! Everything has bee going very well in “The World of Rico”. Oh yeah and we just got a hot tub! Later…

In a social night of hanging out with Jim and Terri, We decided now would be a great time to throw our first Winter Luau!! After spending a few hours making plans, Terri remembered NONE of it!! Nice! But, after a bit of memory jogging, we are GO for an awesome party. The event will be this Friday night from 7-until. RSVP for the address and don’t forget the flower shirts and coconut bras! This is gonna be great!!

…And here are “Le Fotos”…

A few weeks ago, Nancy, Pat, and Kennedy were in town. So, what seems to have become a tradition around here, we all got together and partied!! Our photoshoot was a blast and I have posted a few of the shots. Sorry for the being a few weeks late!! Sometimes life gets in the way!
