Happy Birthday Robert!

I cannot tell a lie - it's Robert's birthday today. He spent the morning with his mom going to a scale model fly-in airshow and then the three of us went out for burgers for lunch. Here's a nice photo of my sweetie with one of the planes he takes his flying lessons on.

Milwaukee Zoo outing

This past Thursday I went into Milwaukee for the day to see my sister, brother-in-law and my 2 nephews who were in town from Minneapolis to visit my parents (grandma and grandpa). Highlights for me were seeing Tommy and Billy (of course!) and watching Tommy overcome his fear of animals to actually take a pony ride at the Milwaukee Zoo - and he had a great time!! Look how proud he looks on the pony. He is such a love!!


Here's the whole gang - minus me, of course, the photographer.

Sun Prairie Corn Festival

Well, I'm a bit behind these days on my posting, so I'm going to try to play a game of catch-up now. Last weekend we had our friends Eric, Susan and future son-in-law Evan in town to go to the Sun Prairie Corn Festival. They've been wanting to come up and see it for years and now finally were able to. We had a great time with them and ate LOTS of corn. You pay $6 for all the corn you can pile into the tote. Afterwards, we bought some corn to take home. Here's a few pix from the day.
