Eric Loves Beans & Rice
Mug-shot of our newly called missionary. How far did they raise that bar?
I can't believe I haven't posted this CONGRATULATIONS shout-out before now. Cousin Eric (a.k.a Cub Bear #3) received his mission call to Curituba, Brazil last week. He'll be leaving on May 31st. This seems like the perfect opportunity to comment on Cousin Eric and his many charms. First of all, Eric is a versatile man of many skills. I think he worked for some time at the Blackfoot cemetary; he has been a semi-used van salesman/refurbisher and definitely heads up the Blackfoot Hell's Angels bike club. He is often spotted around town on a scooter (which seems in strange proportion to his body). Most recently, Eric worked at Mr. Pizza, but now he's in Rexburg going to school and breaking hearts. Some might remember that Eric loves Golden Corral (though I don't think Golden Corral is very fond of Cousin Eric. . .he gets his moneys worth at all buffets). Others might recall his recent win at the family white elephant gift exchange. . .p.s. cross dressing is not allowed on the mission. Eric is a Virtue favorite. . .especially of Mary Lu. Not sure why, but I think he has her wrapped around his not so little finger. . .I suspect some sort of Hell's Angels blackmail. . .but that's a post for another day. Anyway, Eric--CONGRATULATIONS. I hope you like beans and rice. . .I hope even more that beans and rice like you.

They are letting THIS character go on a misson...? Oh my heavens! I'm praying for his companions in advance, if I start now maybe they'll be okay by the time Eric gets to them! Just kidding...I know Eric will do fabulously and GOOD LUCK!
I cut that mullet! Also I babysat him. Isn't he a sharp lookin guy!! Love ya Eric! How exciting!!
Hey, wait a minute, Eric told me that he was going to ARCO. What's this Brazil stuff. Also he is selling tickets to his farewell (oh I guess we aren't suppose to have those any more) so he can raise money for his mission. When we find out when he is speaking we will let you know ahead of time so you can get a ticket and a seat. That's my boy!!!
That is a face only a cub momma could love. Watch out Brazil, we may have to export a potato or two to the country or my little baby may go hungry. And tickets do go on sale sometime in May, we will let our very favorite people know first.
I might have to send him a GOLDEN CORRAL meal!!! Let's see, how am I ever going to do that. Maybe 1 day mail or maybe overnight express or maybe pony express - I just don't know. I've heard dog is really good there. I think ARCO is sounding pretty good buddy.
Kimberly...I'm not sure that you should admit to having anything to do with this character. You cut the hair and babysat this character? Maybe that is why he is how he is...I wouldn't be owning up to anything if I were you! No wonder you two are a couple of crazy kids~ you most likely are crazy... because of each other.
Hey wait a minute this boy is the great kid he is because he has GREAT AUNTS - Mary, Patsy, Annette, Leah and Suzanne. There is nothing better than having five great women in your life, other than the mother, except maybe two grandmothers that have babied this kid from inception or is it conception, whatever.
