It’s often said this is “the most wonderful time of the year.” Holiday gatherings with family and friends, planning for a new year, cooler temps – I tend to agree.
In this final issue of 2023, we bring you some wonderful things. First and foremost, the winners of our annual Readers’ Choice...
Gratitude turns what we have into enough. I have no idea who originally penned these simple yet powerful words, but I certainly appreciate them, especially this time of year. We have so much to be thankful for in Fort Bend. We live in a strong, diverse, community-minded society with so much...
It took a minute and over 1,000 miles, but I finally found it – the allusive Fall season. It really does exist – just not in the Bend at the moment. Our climate seems to be a battle this year, but I’m hopeful cooler temps will prevail.
Battles and hope seem to be the theme of this month’s...
It’s finally here – the official start of The University of Texas football season! I am more than ready to cheer on my Longhorns and participate in some fun Fall activities!
Fall activities is what this issue is all about. Our community organizations are planning some fantastic events and...
It’s summer in Texas, and that means three-digit degree days, oppressing humidity and make-up melt downs, but it’s our Texas, and we love it in spite of its summer sizzle.
With the temperature not so temperate this month, we’ve taken a hiatus from the horrendous heat, stayed indoors and have given...
The lazy, hazy days of summer are finally here, and I, for one, am ready for a more laid-back pace as we celebrate life a bit slower.
Celebrations are a major theme in this issue as we share with you our top grads from Fort Bend ISD and Fort Bend Christian Academy. Our vals and sals are stellar this...
March is often the month associated with madness, but I, for one, must disagree. I’ve long professed that May is by far the month of madness, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with basketball. May is the month of milestones, and for some reason, there always seems to be a multitude of them, ergo the...
It’s April – no foolin’ – and there’s so much going on this Spring in the Bend. As Pete says in this month’s Fort Bend Strong, Spring has sprung! His column is packed full of Springtime excursions both here in the Bend and some “mystery field trips” just a few short miles from home. ...
Last Saturday night I donned a turtleneck sweater, coat, scarf, gloves and boots. By Sunday morning my attire changed to shorts, flip flops and a t-shirt. You know what that means Fort Bend friends? You guessed it – it’s Spring in Texas!
Mr. Kaminski has often equated the Spring season in Texas with a...
Welcome to the absolute best month of the year – the month that features my three favorite C’s: chocolate, cabernet and champagne! Well, I really love diamonds in February, too, and that word doesn’t begin with a C. Hopefully Mr. Kaminski doesn’t get that confused with another C word –...
The new year has blown in with a blast – an Artic blast! You know what they say about Texas weather. If you don’t like it, just wait a minute because it will soon change.
Change is what the new year brings, and celebrating change in a big way is what our cover story is about. Dhanani Private Equity...
What a whirlwind 2022 has been – and now we’re already gearing up for 2023! Fast and furious definitely describes the past 12 months. It’s been a wild ride filled with thrills and spills. Certainly, never a dull moment, and I, for one, am extremely thankful.
This year was a milestone for Fort Bend...
There’s just something about this time of year – it’s my absolute favorite! For me, Fall is magical. It’s a very special time when we decorate our homes, prepare for the holidays and share some great times with family and friends. Fortunately for us, Fort Bend has so many Fall fun festivities...

PUBLISHER'S PREVIEW
Cooler weather is finally here, and it makes me want to get out and about and enjoy all of the things that the Fall season is famous for – the festivals, the outdoor events and of course, the football games! From the Great Pumpkin Round Up to the Sugar Plum Market to the ARC’s “Best in the West,”...
It’s Fall, and our babies are back in school. For the first time in over 20 years, I had no back to school shopping list as my last baby – my 279-month-old newborn – graduated from college in May. I was feeling pretty blue about the entire situation until that precious child offered to meet me...
