DWTS - Houston Edition!

HOUSTON - WE HAVE A DANCER!!! =)

Yes we all know Tom Delay has agreed to be on this season of Dancing with the Stars...but did you know he was training right here in Sugar Land at Cookie Joe's Dance Studio!!!??? It's a DISH-Houston exclusive scoop!

Out insiders told us last week but because of legal contractual obligations to the network we were not allowed to say anything until today! But HERE is the scoop from the inside!!!

Sugar Land's "Cookie Joe's Dancin' School" was recently selected by ABC as the official Dancing With the Stars rehearsal site for former House Majority Leader Tom Delay and Cheryl,  his twice champion dancing partner. The school has recently been featured on Entertainment Tonight and has been seen on national TV when they have shown Mr. Delay rehearsing.
The show premiers with a two hour special on Monday, September 21.   Cookie is donating the $$ she got for renting the school studio to ABC - to Star of Hope Homeless Mission.   Cookie Joe, National 2006 Dance Teacher of the Year, has also recently been featured in the "E" Special about Patrick Swayze. She grew up and danced with Buddy Swayze till he left for New York

What a DISHIE Week!!

You still have to pinch us! This week we were honored with an amazing write up in Envy Magazine! It's online AND in all three cities! Dallas, Houston and Austin in print!!

CLICK HEREto see it and PLEASE go pick up your hard copy of the mag to support the great folks at ENVY!

It was really Theresa Lara, she needed help at an event and DISH was there already so it was no thing to pick up and help out. That's what we are all supposed to do anyway! Well apparently we made her happy because this write up was a huge surprise and sooooo gracious!!! =)

But that's not all....We sent a press release to our old buddy Outlaw Daveabout the FAAN walk DISH is supporting this Saturday and we were not only asked to come talk about it and promote it BUT he asked us to talk about DISH and to be a regular guest on his show!! OMG WE COULD DIE!!! (sorry been watching too much Rachel Zoe)

Needless to say we are UBER grateful and soooooo over the moon excited !
