It was a very successful event and it was great to be in the presence of David Robinson. (I couldn't help but think about the old Mister Robinson's Neighborhood <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPzqgzaaX5Y" target="_blank">commercials</a> that used to air when I was in high school.)&nbsp;David's partnership with IDEA Public Schools has generated much enthusiasm amongst IDEA's school leaders and staff. Together, they plan on opening more IDEA schools in the Rio Grande Valley as well as the greater San Antonio area.&nbsp;</p>

Rudy was proud of his first television commercial and I told him that I'd post it on my blog because I know a few people who have been affected by the recent hail storm who have questions regarding their insurance. I also told him, half kidding, that he should have a head shot taken so people can see what he looks like. He agreed and so here you have it... Rudy's television commercial and a quick head shot of him sitting in my living room...]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.johnnyquiroz.com/blog/rss-comments-entry-15818115.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Kristin + Earnest | Rancho El Charco | RGV Outdoor Wedding</title><category>Photography</category><category>outdoor wedding</category><category>photographer</category><category>rancho el charco</category><category>rgv</category><dc:creator>JohnnyQuiroz</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 Mar 2012 21:55:40 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.johnnyquiroz.com/blog/2012/3/28/kristin-earnest-rancho-el-charco-rgv-outdoor-wedding.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">1248479:14626217:15632099</guid><description><![CDATA[Photos from Kristin and Earnest wedding held at Rancho El Charco in La Joya, Texas.]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.johnnyquiroz.com/blog/rss-comments-entry-15632099.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Sarah + David | Casa Los Ebanos | RGV Outdoor Wedding</title><category>Photography</category><category>casa los ebanos</category><category>outdoor wedding</category><category>rgv</category><dc:creator>JohnnyQuiroz</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 Mar 2012 14:15:49 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.johnnyquiroz.com/blog/2012/3/28/sarah-david-casa-los-ebanos-rgv-outdoor-wedding.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">1248479:14626217:15626748</guid><description><![CDATA[I love outdoor weddings.
