We just got back from our wonderful trip! I’m watching Easton now and throughout the weekend so that Michelle and Nick can have some time alone fishing in Port O’Connor. Since the little rascal is very busy right now grabbing everything in reach from pens to cell phones to hot cups of coffee, I’m going...
We’re heading back to Houston today, and I can’t wait to see the rest of the family. Monday, I have to have YAG laser surgery on both of my eyes because of some cloudiness of the lens capsules. I’m not sure what the post-op period will be like. Have any of you guys had this...
We’re working our way back home. Although this has been one of the best vacations of our lives, I miss my kids and Easton so much! Kristina and Houston have moved back to Houston and will close on their house today. They move in on Saturday, so remind me to go into hiding around that...
Before we get to the Best of Erik post, I want to announce that there will be no radio show this week because Kim is camping with her kids. We’re on for the following week! I’d like to ask you guys to please send prayers and healing energy to Raylene. She tripped over her dog...
Yesterday, we did several things, but the highlights were off-roading in Monument Valley and going to the place where Forrest Gump stopped running and turned around to go home. Check this out: Here are two videos, one with us being trapped on all sides by a flash flood. Flash Flood Monument Valley Check out last...
Headed to Monument Valley! Last night, we went to a restaurant called Into the Grand in Page, AZ. Dinner consisted of Navajo fare, including “fry bread” and the entertainment was Native American singing and dancing. Arleen absolutely loved it and said, “When I come back, I want to be a Native American.” She told one...
What a great day we’ve had today! This morning after breakfast, Arleen and I, to Rune’s dismay, scrambles up a mountain of rocks. I proved his prediction wrong when I didn’t limp back with a broken hip. Then we went to Antelope Canyon, a place that is supposedly on the bucket list of many people....
Yesterday, when we returned from the Grand Canyon, Arleen met up with a couple of new friends and played around the campground. I took them all to the swimming pool where they played Marco Polo and Mother May I. Then I invited them all, with their parents, to have home baked cookies with us. Now,...
We just got back from the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon. It was thunder storming in the area, but I asked Erik to keep us dry and he did. The views there are breathtaking, and the temperature was very pleasant. Now, we’re back at the campsite catching up on work. I will be on the road this...
We are now in Sedona having a great time! We went to two vortexes and they were magical. Both Cathedral Rock and Airport Vortex had an intense energy, and clearly, it amped Arleen up into high gear. She could see the vortex energy in colors of purple and yellow. Some of the cedar trees had...
We’re headed for Sedona right now and plan to visit Cathedral Rock Vortex and Airport Vortex with blog member and Scottsdale resident, Laurie Trapp. She knows a lot about vortexes, so I’m sure it’ll be very enlightening. I’m wondering if I’ll feel anything when we’re in these vortexes and, if so, what? Then we’ll go...
We’re driving from Fort Stockton,TX to Benson, AZ now, which is about an 8 hour drive. Damn,Texas is HUGE. It takes forever to get out of this state. I’ve been talking to Emma these last few days about her moving from Belgium to Texas, Her husband is American, and she has so many clients in...
Annika’s White Coat Ceremony was awesome. My heart swelled with pride as she donned her white coat for the first time on stage. She has worked so hard to maintain a perfect grade point average. Here’s a video of part of the ceremony: Annika’s White Coat Ceremony and some pics of the lovely girl: And...
Well, we had another tragic bunny experience. Arleen was holding little Cosmo who wriggled free and scurried under the fence into the neighbor’s yard. Nick and Michelle scoured their yard for two hours and couldn’t find it. The next day, it appears in our backyard, but obviously a hawk or owl got to it and...
I’m perplexed. We have a biometric safe that we’ve had for over ten years. Unfortunately, the battery ran out, and we can’t find the bypass key. I searched every surface of the safe and found no company identification, but a search of all the biometric safes on Amazon revealed it was identical to most of...
The rest of this week will be busy in preparation for our trip with Arleen to the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Lake Powell and other places. Plus, Annika has her orientation for medical school tomorrow and her White Coat Ceremony Thursday night. Then we leave early Friday morning for the trip. Because of the ceremony Thursday,...
I just got back from my girls’ trip to the Hill Country (New Braunfels) and I had such a great time! There’s probably lots of pics on my Facebook page. What a great group of ladies, all brought together because of my son, Erik: Sara Kujawa, Tiffanie Williams, Kerry Walker, Kari Mena, Emma McIntosh and...
Headed out for New Braunfels with my girlfriends in just a few minutes, so I’ll keep this brief. I may or may not post Saturday or Sunday. It’s a fine line between satisfying my OCD and having too much fun! Enjoy today’s post! Me: Good morning, sweet lady! How are you? Kim: Hello! Me (Looking...
