We celebrated Memorial Day a day early today. Having to go back to work and school on Tuesday, it made more sense to have the festivities today, instead of tomorrow. Being Sunday, we started the day with Mass at the fire station. We are getting close to building our own church. We have some the […]

Happy Easter to everyone! I hope yours is as pleasant as ours has been thus far. We started the morning out with Easter Mass at one of our community members ranches. It was a wonderful ceremony held outside with the rolling hills and mountains as a backdrop. A cool breeze filled the air. Afterwards, myself […]

Merry Christmas to All! Thus far, it has been a wonderful Christmas for the Klasens, albeit an early one. We have this little family tradition where the kids cant see the Christmas tree in the morning until Mr Papa goes out and checks to see if Santa managed to find our house this year. Since […]

This vacation sure has been nice – didnt I say that before? Anyways, it would have been a bit nicer if the kids were off of school this week, but they dont get off until tomorrow. Usually, we get a couple of weeks off together at the end of the year. They actually get the […]
Halloween and NutriSystem Update

Our little rural community of Sonoita celebrated Halloween this weekend. Living in the country, there is no real way for the kids to trick or treat. They might walk two miles and only visit 4 houses.� Instead, the community gets together at the county fairgrounds and holds a Halloween carnival. The chamber of commerce sponsors […]

Happy Fourth of July to all! Today, we will show the Klasen clan a rural, small town Fourth of July celebration. We will go over to Patagonia, AZ about 12 miles away. They have a nice little parade highlighted by water gun squirting and balloon throwing. It’s a pretty cute parade with all the local […]

Happy Easter! Not a whole lot of activity planned for Mr Papa and family as most of our family lives a long distance away. Just a nice relaxing day taking in a movie, playing some boardgames and a nice feast. I am preparing a Prime Rib for dinner this evening with that mystical, never-fail recipe. […]
