Well, in the 2 years that I have now lived in Alaska my mom has surprised me twice with a visit. It was time to pay her back! Because I have such a wonderful boyfriend, that also happens to be a pilot, we were able to plan a surprise visit to Texas. I must also add that I have great friends in Alaska that were able to cover my shifts in order to allow me 2 extra days in texas.
one thing that I am always excited about is to see my dogs as well.
low Rider AKA Rider is the bigger dog. both of our dogs are rescue dogs. Rider was one of those dogs that you walk into Petsmart not having a clue you are going to leave with a dog from the pound.
Delilah, the miniature dachshund, was found by a dumpster when I was in college in Louisiana.
Devin and I also love being able to take them for a walk without having to worry about snow....or an eagle taking Delilah (hint of sarcasm).
One of my favorite parts about flying home was visiting my great grandmother. Yeah you read it right, my nana is 95 years old and still a spit fire.
I also visited my papa, Grandfather.
love you most Papa!
Well, sadly it was eventually time to return back to Alaska. We are getting prepared for our easter event. Sarah boiled 2 dozen eggs and after work we had fun dying them.
This year we got a bit more creative than just dying them simple colors. We used wax crayons, duct tape, and even vegetable oil to get all kinds of effects.
I think I may have to buy another dozen tonight. I still haven't quite got my Easter egg dying itch fulfilled.
Hmmmm, I may have to google some more ways to dye them.
Any suggestions?
Goodnight Lower 48,
ErIn
