AAAYYY!!!

Friday we took a drive to Milwaukee to get tickets to see The Cake Boss.  WooHoo!  We all like watching the show so it will be something fun to do as a family.

While down there we took a little walk along the Milwaukee River and had our pics taken with the bronz Fonz....

The kids weren't interested in making fools of themselves!

Sunday we had a nice Father's day.  We slept in a bit, the kids and I made breakfast for hubby, we discussed a few trips we may take in the future, spent some time checking out an Artisan Faire in town, had cake and did some fishing.

Well, hubby and the kids fished......I took photos.......

Today I got talked into buying a book of Twilight songs for the clarinet!! 

 I guess if it gets her to practice her clarinet over summer break it's all good.

Happy Father's Day!!

It's been a busy, fun weekend! Yesterday we drove a couple hours to go to a hot air balloon rally. I will blog and post a few pics about that soon.

But first, since it's Father's Day........some photos of the kids with Daddy! This one was taken yesterday during our adventures.


Today, Skowt decided to cook breakfast for Dad (and the rest of us). He's usually the one who makes breakfast on Sunday mornings when we're all home. She needed a little (ok a lot) of help from me, but she did do the pancakes herself.

Then we decided to go out and do some fishing. Well, they fished. I watched and took pics. 156 of them to be exact. And not one of me. You wouldn't even know I was there besides the fact that there are a ton of pics of the 3 of them! Someone had to take them!

All three of them caught a fish today! Skowt started it all and turns out hers was the biggest of the three!

Hubby was next after he lost one. The line snapped on the first one he hooked.

And the day would not have been complete if Tiger hadn't gotten one too! She tried to get daddy to reel it in but he made her take the pole back and do it herself. I'm so glad he did.

17 years and counting

Holy crap! I'm slipping! I didn't even realize until about an hour after I got up this morning and looked at the date on the newspaper that today (besides being father's day) was also our 17th wedding anniversary!

I'm usually more on top of stuff like that and thinking about it a couple months ahead of time. Planning what we might do for it. Which is usually only going out to dinner and a movie or something. But it's without the kids!!

I guess I can't get on him anymore for forgetting things like this now that I fall into the same category! lol Happy Anniversary to my other half! And to the rest of you....

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!
