Day four

Well we started our day "standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona and such a fine sight to see" from there we headed to the Meteor Crater.  It was made over 50,000 years ago.  The site is pretty awesome too look at and the history is a great learning experience.  Alyssa really enjoyed this too.  She also spoted on the way there a flyingdactol alien.  

From the crater we head to the Grand Canyon and for about 2 of the hour drive my child was speaking a different language.  My child 2 languages now...English and absolute jibberish which is a cross between Spanish and Chinese sounding.  But the same words come out over and over again so she must be having a conversation with the voices in her head.  This drive Matthew crazy, but she loves doing it.  Most of the day was in the car, but when it wasn't we had to deal with the little one and her attitude today.  Tomorrow is a new day...she will do better.

Mom (and Matthew) both saw Elk dining near out hotel.  Mom got a great pic.  We ate dinner down the street and though it was a bit pricy the food was pretty good.  Mom and Dad have not decided too much about tomorrow (I broke up the not going anywhere conversation out what to do or where to hike) so first the IMAX movie and the who knows. :-) 

All in all we are having a great time, even Matthew. Lol.  Bring on the Grand Canyon I can't wait to see it and to experience for the first time with the kids.

HI Stacy! Hope Heaven is treating you well.  We sure miss you here on earth.  I am sure you are watching us daily, but just in case you are missing the finer details let me fill you in on your kids.  They, just like me, miss you.  We all wish that tomorrow was a day of celebration not a day of remembrance.  But I guess we should celebrate that you are not in pain anymore and that all three of yours children are being well taken care of. Hey did you hear that I am FINALLY getting married?  You would totally like the guy.  He's so great.  He's a big goofball like me but very loyal, caring and helpful.  He treats us all with respect and has only the best intentions when it comes to the kids.  We will rock this parenting thing together.  These kids will have an additional person to fill them up with love. So what have you missed in the last 5 years?  Unfortunately a lot.  It makes me sad sometimes to remember what t...

Because you need me

Today one of my loyal readers told me that he really needs me to update my blog more often.  He was tired of reading that I am "yellow" and he said that he sees me more as a "Peach".  LOL  I said I don't and probably will never own anything peach, come to think of it I don't even own anything yellow. So here are a few things that crossed my mind today. This morning when I got dressed in my room, I really thought my outfit matched.  Then after further consideration and better light at work I decided that I did not match at all. :-) I used to think that getting my nails done was a waste of money, but I really want to go get pedicure. I wish those belly belts that say they will tone your tummy actually worked, I'd wear it daily. If Nacho was a baby, I think he would never learn how to walk because I love him so much I'd carry him everywhere...but since he's a cat he'd scratch my eyes out if I tried. I miss fried foods. Sometimes I thin...

A trip and a 5k a month?

Can it be done? Of course it can...I already know I can run a 5k so I just have to get off my butt and do it. As for the travel well January and February are booked. April, June, July and August are close behind. So 6 out of 12 is not too shabby for it only being January 9th - half way there. So where should I go? Any suggestion?
