Pre-Birthday Weekend

This weekend the ladies (Lily, Lucy, Stacey and Shelby) came down for a weekend birthday extravaganza! We went to Gov Nelson State Park and enjoyed a picnic on the beach,

Man, the boys are pastey white!! and then Cakes for everyone!!!
According to the boys, it cant be a party unless you have cake, hats, ball0ons and presents. I think we had them covered.
The parents were busy assembling the presents, which was almost more entertaining than the kids opening them!
Go Lily!!, no fear

And then back in the sandAfter a the greatest weekend ever, we enjoyed some Frezee Pops on the porch.

TRAINS

And to follow up a fabulous Fathers Day....we played trains on the porch.... We love this porch!

And Pat spent some time in the woods with his new favorite toy....a wood chipper!
(Man I just love those green eyes!)

Naked fun

Jamison thinks that there should be a new Olymipic sport...naked sand castle building! We built a new sandbox at the house and the boys have been spending most of their time there!
But Peter spends more time in the pool. (picture is cropped so not to reveal the family jewels!)

Bay Beach, Green Bay

On Fathers day we went to Bay Beach and had a blast on all the rides! Pat and Jamison enjoyed the hopiter (helicopter)
Peter fought off Jamison's advances in an air war
Followed by a cruise on the Bay

and a zoom an on tento mooshi (lady bug).

Sticking with the insect theme...took a buz around a mushroom in a hachi (bumble bee)
and a zip around a race track.
Throw in a poney ride and a train ride and a boys dream has been fullfulled!!!
HAPPY FATHERS DAY! to all the DADs!

Country Weekend

This weekend we enjoyed what WI has to offer.....A country breakfast on a farm! we even had ice cream for breakfast. June is dairy month, you can do that!

We saw cows.....little ones and big ones. The big ones were a little scary.

And got to sit in some cool equipment....

And then on Sunday we checked out a really big airplane near Dodgeville

A few months of catch up

The house is still for sale.....so if you know of anyone looking.....We had our first date with Lily and Lucy....surpervised of course. Very fun! at the zoo, we all loved the flamingos (or fofingos) We have been riding bikes.....

and we made one last trip to MOA before we moved to Mt Horeb WI. Pat even brought the boys on some of the rides at the Park (formally known as Camp Snoopy).

Jamison has been training to be a Survivor contestant for season 42 and Peter has been training to become a firefighter

Now we are at the new "brown" house and have been having a lot of fun! They have really cool fire trucks here! (they are all black!)

Blue Mounds State park
