Random ramblings

There are a few things I want to note today, so I’ll just run down a list:

* A few days ago, Noah mentioned that one of his teeth hurt. My first thought was, “OMG, could it be a loose tooth?!” But then he pointed to one of his eye teeth or something, so I […]

Let the holidays begin

This afternoon, I rushed home from a long day at work (after a long day at work yesterday, too!) to get bundled up to go to a local Christmas parade. It had a plethora of scout groups, high school marching bands, church floats, and candy tossers. Among the highlights were the Racing Sausages with Bernie […]

An “Enchanted” evening

I just got back from my friend Amy’s house, having spent the evening watching “Enchanted” with her, her four-year-old daughter, Kylie, and two of Amy’s neighbors. Since I don’t have a daughter of my own, I like to use my friends’ daughters for some “girlie” time.

I’ve wanted to see “Enchanted” for a while, admittedly […]

Lapham Peak

I took the boys to Lapham Peak in Kettle Moraine State Forest today. It was another gorgeous day, about 80 degrees (in October in Wisconsin!), and too perfect to pass up. Andy was finishing sanding the deck, so he passed.

The first thing we did when we got to Lapham Peak was head to the […]

Family Fun Day

Today was “Family Fun Day” for Badger Football at Camp Randall Stadium. It’s a chance to meet players and coaches, get autographs, and spend a couple of hours on the turf, which is hallowed ground to many. We found out about it very last minute this morning, but seeing as Madison is a little over […]

Hot

I don’t really know how to get a picture of Michael Phelps on my blog, but he definitely fits the NaBloPoMo theme for August, which is “Hot.” Mostly, he’s on fire with his swimming at the Beijing Olympics. But he’s not so bad on the eyes, either!

It feels like Sunday…

…but I’m really glad it’s not!

Andy took the day off yesterday for our golf outing, and today we were at Wirth Park for Andy’s family reunion. We took the boys swimming at the kiddie pool, which is really more than a kiddie pool. It’s a mini water park. They had a blast! It renewed […]

Uninspired

That’s how I’m feeling right now.

We had a long day today. Andy and I golfed in the Majeskie family golf outing (it’s Andy’s family reunion tomorrow), and I’m pooped! It was a very long round, because there was very slow play ahead of us. I played alright, considering this was my third time […]

A VERY “Dark Knight”

Andy and I just got back from seeing “The Dark Knight.” I don’t know if I’m getting more sensitive as I get older, or the movies are getting more violent more intense, but I had a really hard time sitting through that whole movie! I was very much interested in going down the hall to […]
