We're back (online that is . . . .and also from Madison). We're having Aaron's (Amy's brother) graduation party tomorrow so Mom has us all working hard on slicing, dicing, decorating and cleaning. That doesn't leave much time for blogging. But alas . . . Mom finally fell asleep. We're free, we're free!!! (Love you, Mom.)
Anyway, thought we'd tell a little about our big trip to Madison on Thursday. Mike (Amy's brother) needed a way to get back to Menasha for the big grad party so we decided to take a trip to visit him in and give him a ride back. Our traveling crew included (see photo) Sophi and I, Aaron and Bubba (Amy's brothers), and Marcus and Annali (family friends). We were lucky enough to find lodging at Mike's house where he lives with five other guys. Sleeping bags were required for this trip. You'll notice from the photo that even Sophi had to rough it as I made her a little "nest" on the floor. She slept like a baby (yes, pun was intended).
Some of the highlights of our 24 hour escapade included eating on the roof of a great Greek restaurant (see photo), bumming around up and down State St., and taking in the Wisconsin Cow Parade (http://wisconsin.cowparade.com/) that is on display in Madison right now (sorry, I don't know how to do those cool hyper links yet). The photo you see is of all of us posing with one of the 101 cows on display. This particular one is entitled "Bumper-cow". The whole thing is really a unique and enjoyable art exhibit.
Closing remarks? We're having a good time here but we sure miss you, Daddy! Please come home soon!
