Transcript:Sv: En klar hösteftermiddag fladdrade löven i vinden, och den stora familjevillan vid sjökanten sken i gyllene ljus från de tända ljusslingorna.En: A clear autumn afternoon, the leaves fluttered in the wind, and the large family villa by the lakeside shone in golden light from the lit string lights.Sv: Lars studsade omkring i köket, fylld av energi och entusiasm.En: Lars bounced around the kitchen, filled with energy and enthusiasm.Sv: Han hade planerat den här dagen i veckor och var fast besluten att överraska sin fru, Annika, på hennes födelsedag.En: He had planned this day for weeks and was determined to surprise his wife, Annika, on her birthday.Sv: Runt omkring i huset hade Lars dekorerat med pumpor och ljuslyktor, och vardagsrummet var fyllt med extra stolar, lånade från grannar.En: Around the house, Lars had decorated with pumpkins and candles, and the living room was filled with extra chairs borrowed from neighbors.Sv: Ett bord var dukat med tårtor, kanelbullar och pepparkakor.En: A table was set with cakes, cinnamon buns, and gingerbread.Sv: Det skulle bli perfekt.En: It was going to be perfect.Sv: Men den knasiga glädjen fick snart ett hål när Olof, Lars bror, kom in i köket och vinkade med en bunt med rosa kuvert.En: But the wacky joy soon got a hole when Olof, Lars' brother, came into the kitchen waving a bunch of pink envelopes.Sv: "Lars, är du säker på att du skrev rätt datum?"En: "Lars, are you sure you wrote the correct date?"Sv: frågade han med ett snett leende.En: he asked with a crooked smile.Sv: Lars stelnade till.En: Lars stiffened.Sv: Med ett oroligt hjärta rev han upp ett kuvert.En: With a worried heart, he tore open an envelope.Sv: Där, tryckt i svart och vitt, stod det: "Överraskningsfest för Annika den 20 oktober."En: There, printed in black and white, it said: "Surprise party for Annika on October 20th."Sv: Men idag var den 19:e.En: But today was the 19th.Sv: Panik slog honom.En: Panic struck him.Sv: Rätt dag var i morgon!En: The right day was tomorrow!Sv: Kort efter detta kom Olofs skratt och kramar.En: Shortly after, came Olof's laughter and hugs.Sv: "Det är lugnt, brorsan.En: "It's okay, brother.Sv: Vi fixar det här."En: We'll fix this."Sv: De sprang runt i huset och såg hur gäster började anlända enligt den 'felaktiga' informationen på inbjudningarna.En: They ran around the house and saw how guests began to arrive according to the 'incorrect' information on the invitations.Sv: Lars himlade med ögonen men skrattade snart.En: Lars rolled his eyes but soon laughed.Sv: Detta var ju också en del av hans charm.En: This was also part of his charm.Sv: Med hjälp av Olof började de samla gästerna och förklara misstaget.En: With Olof's help, they began gathering the guests and explaining the mistake.Sv: Istället för att låta paniken råda, bestämde sig Lars för att köra vidare.En: Instead of letting panic reign, Lars decided to go ahead.Sv: "Vi gör detta till en dubbel överraskning," utropade han, "Annika kommer aldrig att gissa vad som väntar!"En: "Let's make this a double surprise," he exclaimed, "Annika will never guess what's coming!"Sv: Just när han trodde att kaoset var under kontroll, hördes dörrklockan.En: Just when he thought the chaos was under control, the doorbell rang.Sv: Det var fler gäster som fått det felaktiga datumet.En: More guests who had received the wrong date were arriving.Sv: Samtidigt körde Annika upp i uppfarten.En: Meanwhile, Annika drove up in the driveway.Sv: Lars skyndade sig mot dörren och sände en snabb blick till Olof.En: Lars rushed to the door and sent a quick glance to Olof.Sv: När Annika klev in ropade alla gästerna "Grattis!"En: When Annika stepped in, all the guests shouted "Congratulations!"Sv: följt av ett nästan unisont "Oj!".En: followed by an almost unison "Oops!"Sv: Annika, förvirrad men rörd, brast ut i skratt när Lars omfamnade henne och förklarade den humoristiska situationen.En: Annika, confused but touched, burst into laughter as Lars embraced her and explained the humorous situation.Sv: Alla brast ut i fnitter och applåder, något avspänt och äkta spred sig genom rummet.En: Everyone broke out into giggles and applause, something relaxed and genuine spread through the room.Sv: Medan kvällen förlöpte, och eldar sprakade utomhus under det klara höstnatten, insåg Lars att även om han kanske borde dubbelkolla detaljer nästa gång, var det dessa små misstag som gjorde livet roligt.En: As the evening unfolded, and fires crackled outside under the clear autumn night, Lars realized that even if he should double-check details next time, it was these little mistakes that made life fun.Sv: Annika var glad, gästerna skrattade och han kände att det verkligen blivit en oförglömlig dag – precis som han hade hoppats på, fast på det mest oväntade sätt.En: Annika was happy, the guests laughed, and he felt it had really become an unforgettable day – just as he had hoped for, though in the most unexpected way.Sv: Så blev den där knäppa dagen en kär minne för alla inblandade.En: Thus that crazy day became a cherished memory for everyone involved.Sv: En överraskning som blev ännu bättre än planerat, trots fel datum.En: A surprise that turned out even better than planned, despite the wrong date.Sv: Livet hade sitt sätt att lura oss att skratta åt det oväntade – och Lars lärde sig uppskatta den lärdomen mer än något annat.En: Life had its way of making us laugh at the unexpected – and Lars learned to appreciate that lesson more than anything else.

#189 - A cone head at baggage claim. A prank that makes a whole terminal laugh. And beneath the costumes and skits, a marriage held together by faith, service, and a fierce tenderness forged in grief. We sit down with Troy and Melinda Hicks—Hicks in the Wild—to explore how everyday adventure can coexist with loss and how playful creativity becomes a lifeline.Their love story starts in college, survives a mission and distance, and grows into a partnership where roles fit like puzzle pieces: Melinda crafts the ideas and heart-forward projects; Troy builds the systems, supply chains, and giving model. That model was born from pain. They share the sudden preterm birth of their son Tanner at 24 weeks, three days in the NICU, and the sacred details that became anchors—a donated blanket and cap, a father who knew how to navigate the unthinkable. Melinda now sews tiny blankets and diaper covers for NICU babies, transforming sorrow into service families can feel in their hands.The Hicks also walk through a second crucible: their five-month-old's neck tumor and the week of terror before a successful surgery. That experience reframed hospitals as places of skill and hope, inspiring them to donate a percentage of their revenue to Phoenix Children's Hospital. We dig into their mission-driven venture, Searching for Jesus, a Christ-centered Advent tradition that turned their December into daily wonder and helped their kids fall in love with prayer. Along the way, we talk viral moments, Lord Farquaad gags, a months-long “bird landing” quest, and the simple rule that guides their content—if it isn't fun, they don't do it.What emerges is a blueprint for meaningful, joyful living: schedule delight, let faith hold your anger long enough to heal, make small things that help real people, and keep choosing each other through the messy middle of family life. Adventure, they remind us, isn't a mountain or an ocean crossing—it's a decision to move forward without knowing every turn, and to laugh together when you can.

planlagt, var dagen en succes, fordi de havde været sammen og skabt minder.En: Niels had realized that even though not everything went as planned, the day was a success because they had been together and created memories.Da: I takt med at de forlod parken, blev en ny selvtillid og forståelse født fra de Halloween-fyldte oplevelser.En: As they left the park, a new confidence and understanding was born from the Halloween-filled experiences.Da: "Næste gang, måske en lille rutsjebane," sagde Astrid skælmsk.En: "Next time, maybe a small roller coaster," said Astrid mischievously.Da: Niels smilede bredt, lettet og mere inspireret end nogensinde.En: Niels smiled broadly, relieved and more inspired than ever.

Get More LVWITHLOVE Content at LVwithLOVE.com Become a partner! Families and young people are the future of the arts, and no one knows that better than Mark Fitzgerald Wilson, Executive Director of the Zoellner Arts Center at Lehigh University. Mark joined Zoellner in 2020, bringing an eclectic background as an educator, business professional, and opera singer. Originally from Iowa, he discovered the Lehigh Valley through his son's lacrosse tournaments and fell in love with the area's energy, trails, and sense of community. When he arrived at Zoellner, he noticed a missing piece in local arts programming: family experiences that were fun, welcoming, and accessible. The result was Family FUN-A-PALOOZA, an annual event that brings families together for live theater, interactive arts activities, and partnerships with local organizations. This year's Family FUN-A-PALOOZA takes place Saturday, November 1 from 10 AM to 1:30 PM, featuring Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The Musical, based on the beloved children's book by Mo Willems. Developed by the Kennedy Center, the show promises laughter, energy, and plenty of opportunities for kids to move and make noise. “This is a non-shushing show,” Wilson says. “Kids, have fun. Parents tell us that when they hear that, the weight just lifts off their shoulders. This is for everyone. We have families with neurodivergent children, sensory-friendly audiences, and people who just want to enjoy being here together.” The event features more than 20 community and campus partners, including PBS, Lehigh University Art Galleries, and local dance groups. Visitors can take part in crafts, art projects, and pre-show performances throughout Zoellner's lobby and open spaces. Costumes are encouraged, even for parents. “It's the day after Halloween, so bring your costumes,” Wilson laughs. “Dress up, have fun, and parents, wear a costume too.” Beyond Family FUN-A-PALOOZA, Zoellner's fall and spring lineup is packed with major performances and new experiences. Wilson highlights Postmodern Jukebox, Dirty Dancing in Concert, and the Morgan Freeman Symphonic Blues Experience, along with orchestral performances from the New York Philharmonic and Philadelphia Orchestra. “We want to bring world-class artists to our stage while also connecting students to the professional world,” Wilson says. “There are so many great arts organizations in the Lehigh Valley, and each of us brings something different. For Zoellner, it's about giving people cultural experiences they might not get anywhere else.” He also points to Zoellner's new well-being concert series, which lets audiences lie onstage among musicians for a meditative, health-focused experience. “The arts are part of the ecosystem that keeps our community healthy,” Wilson explains. “Music and movement make people feel better. Across the country, doctors are prescribing the arts as part of someone's physical or mental health. That's where we're headed too.” Wilson says innovation will define the next phase of Zoellner's growth. Expect site-specific performances, partnerships with local nonprofits for community ticket programs, and more creative collaborations that bring people together in unexpected spaces. “People want experiences, not just events,” Wilson says. “Some want to sit in Baker Hall, some want to see a show outside, and some might even want to see something in a parking garage. The arts can meet people wherever they are.” Family FUN-A-PALOOZA 2025 takes place Saturday, November 1 from 10 AM to 1:30 PM at the Zoellner Arts Center on the campus of Lehigh University.

Tucked away in the historic apple-growing region of Oak Glen, California, lies Riley's Farm – a 760-acre colonial living history experience that's become a beloved family tradition for thousands of Southern California families. Join Coach Mikki and farm owner Jim Riley as they explore how this remarkable destination evolved from a family vacation property into an immersive historical experience hosting 80,000 schoolchildren annually.Riley shares the serendipitous journey that led to creating a place where history comes alive through Revolutionary War reenactments, colonial dinners, and seasonal harvests. What make extraordinary isn't just its apple orchards or homemade pies – it's the opportunity for families to actively participate in American heritage rather than passively consume entertainment. From pressing apple cider in traditional presses to dancing in converted barns after farm-to-table meals, visitors create memories that digital experiences simply can't replicate.The conversation reveals something deeper happening at Riley's Farm – what Jim describes as a "mystical connection" many feel to agricultural rhythms. "Most of us are only three or four generations removed from the soil," he explains, suggesting that farm experiences tap into cultural memories embedded in our collective consciousness. As families disconnect from technology and reconnect with tactile experiences, they often discover joy in simple pleasures and gain appreciation for the sacrifices made by earlier Americans who built our nation through tremendous hardship and heroism.Whether you're looking for a unique family outing, seeking to understand American history beyond textbooks, or simply craving the taste of freshly pressed cider and homemade caramel apple pie, Riley's Farm offers an authentic escape from modern life. As Coach Mikki attests from years of visits, "It leaves a memory that you'll cherish." Discover how you can experience this unique destination or support its preservation by visiting rileysfarm.com today.

This week's episode is short, sweet, and straight from my heart. I wasn't feeling inspired to record today, and maybe that's exactly why this message matters.In this episode, I share a moment from the other day when someone asked me, “What do you do now that you're not teaching?” and I froze. I explain how that question left me feeling less than, and how it ties into the bigger reminder we all need:

This October, the Winchester Regional Airport will transform into a vibrant hub of activity as it hosts the much-anticipated Wings & Wheels event, a celebration that brings together aviation enthusiasts, car lovers, families, and the broader community for a day of fun and discovery. In this episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael talks with Kaleigh Fincham, Director of Events for the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber, and Nick Sabo, Executive Director of the airport, to offer listeners an inside look at what makes this event so special. Thanks to the generosity of local sponsors, Wings & Wheels is free to attend, opening the doors for thousands to experience a unique blend of attractions. Attendees can expect a dazzling array of aircraft on static display, a diverse car show welcoming everything from classic cars to custom trucks, and the ever-popular “touch a truck” experience, where children and adults alike can get up close with heavy machinery and emergency vehicles. The event also features live music performances, food and drink vendors, arts and crafts booths, and even the chance to take a discovery flight or ride in a historic warbird. Beyond the festivities, Wings & Wheels serves as a showcase for the airport's role in the community, offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse into its operations and the opportunities it provides—from sparking a child's interest in aviation to supporting local businesses. With thoughtful planning around parking, accessibility, and volunteer support, the organizers are committed to making the day enjoyable and inclusive for all. As the region gears up for this annual tradition, Wings & Wheels stands as a testament to the power of community partnership and the shared excitement of flight and four wheels.
