As they say, if a little is good, then a lot must be better. On 2 May, Brothers' Lemonade and Snack Shack will open its doors for the first time, across the street from Royal Confections in the Historic town of Occoquan.
In the time honored tradition of children having a lemonade stand, Preston and Alex will be working with Royal Enterprises, to learn the basic management of business. Although the stand is much bigger than the traditional lemonade stand, we are excited to add it to our ever growing businesses. The Brothers' will be working with Royal Enterprises management (Mom is other title I go by) to insure that their new creation is not only a fun place to work, but a profitable endeavor. We are very excited with all of the growing our family is doing, and look forward to more "business children" in the future.

On April 25, it my honor and privilege to judge the Miss Loudoun County pageant on behalf of the Purcellville Lion's club.
Below is the article that appeared in the Purcellville on May 1st:
A packed auditorium at Loudoun Valley High School, filled with parents, well wishers and supporters, cheered on nineteen very accomplished, philanthropic and energetic contestants vying for the title of Miss Loudoun County 2009. This year marked the 53rd Annual Pageant and the 53rd year in which the Purcellville Lions Club served as host. The theme for this year was “Celebrate America!” which the contestants and audiences were more than happy to do.
The evening’s MC was Mr. Paul Draisey, who helped keep the audience in suspense while the contestants were busy with wardrobe changes. The distinguished panel of judges for the evening included: Juan Romero, Master Deputy, Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office; Stephanie Arnold-Merchant, All American Classic Woman 2009 and Juliette Rizzo, Ms. Wheelchair America 2005. Throughout the evening, special entertainment was provided by the Chorus of the Old Dominion and the Creative Dance Center. Caitlin Uze, Miss Apple Blossom Festival 2009 was also in attendance as she prepares for this weekend’s 82nd Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester, Virginia.
