We're Home Again!

We are all home again, at least we were yesterday! Becky is back from Arizona. As you can see Grandpa George's cataract surgery was a success and he is recovering well (this picture was after surgery). It'd been way too long since they'd seen each other for sure and both enjoyed their time together. Becky also found the Knefley's happy and well - another visit that was way long overdue! Rumor has it they tried to cram several years of missed visits into two short days with limited success! Becky said she drove over 600 miles in Arizona this trip and thinks she's seen every cactus and mountain in the state! Harvey and I survived but we both forgot to do any laundry until the last day! Whew, Becky came home and did it for us! I really think pictures from the Cancun trip will appear soon so come back soon and check them out!

Harvey is off to Minneapolis today so again I am in charge! This time for Becky! Boy, this dog life is hard work!

We're Back!




Becky & Harvey are home from Cancun a day late & a dollar short! Somehow they were the guests of American Airlines in Dallas for a night that wasn't planned on the way home. As you can see they had a great time! Heather & Bill's wedding was beautiful; the resort was top notch, VERY relaxing and with way too much food, drink and pampering; they went on a catamaran trip to Isla Mujeres; snorkeled, saw two baby barracuda & some beautiful fish; Becky swam with a shark but never got to swim with the dolphins meaning she will have to go back again; Harvey went fishing in some rough waters where he was the chum champ, caught a big Barracuda and brought home some of the teeth which are currently soaking in a bleach bath; and the entire trip was a huge success! Both are burnt and peeling but seem to be o.k. with it all! Their pictures are in a shambles at the moment and Becky is leaving Sunday for a week in Arizona with Grandpa George and a quick visit with the Knefley's but I am positive she'll have them organized and posted sometime soon. I am in charge of Harvey for the week - a tall job, but someone has to do it!

Off to Vacation


We are off to Vacation! I leave tonight for Camp Wagner, my bag is packed and hanging on the back door waiting for my ride! Becky is packed and ready for the 4:30 a.m. pick up in the morning! Harvey on the other hand hasn't started packing but I'm sure he'll get 'er done! This is the "awful" place they have to stay in Cancun. We are now discussing who is going to have more fun, me at Camp or Harvey & Becky! Will let you know when we all return next week.

Busy Weekend

Nice surprise this weekend when Nicki and the kids came for a short
visit. Whew, they can pack a lot of excitement in a short time!
Shopping, ice skating (Becky took the picture thru the plexigas),
church, eating out and the Cooper's coming to videotape a message
for Heather & Bill at their wedding! Too much activity for a Schnauzer
so I spent a lot of time catching up on my sleep here at the house! 

Just so you know... Paul is not mad at me, he was on his way home from a fishing trip trip to Canada and we hope he caught a LOT of fish!

Excitement at our house!

Boy, the excitement at our house is getting intense and I keep hearing Camp Wagner mentioned! Must mean Becky and Harvey are headed out and I get to go to camp, Yippee! I think they are headed to Cancun for Heather's wedding on the 8th and will be there a whole week! The suitcases are coming upstairs so that must be really close now! Becky also told me I was going to have to be in charge of Harvey for a week starting the 19th. Grandpa George is having his first cataract surgery in Tucson. She is going there, then to see the Knefley's (oh man I miss them!) and hopefully will see Terry before she comes home on the 26th! Then, if that isn't enough in November they are going to Chicago with Nicki, Paul & the kids! I think this is supposed to be for a stateside reception for Heather & Bill but I keep hearing about Blue Man Group, the Shedd Aquarium and Chicago Bears! Sounds like an exciting trip to me! I'm betting there will be LOTS of pictures several times in the near future so check in with us often.

Love,
