Funday/Sunday...

A few weeks ago, the kids got together with friends to hang out and enjoy the nice weather that would soon be coming to an end.  We spent a few hours at the park and then went for ice cream.

Miley, Alec, Maddie and Lexi

 We brought a rocket to the park that Will had gotten from his cousin Kal. 

Abbie, Alec and Will getting it set up.

 Ready for lift off...

 Maddie and Lexi trying to catch the rocket.  When it launches, I was amazed at how high it actually went, so when it comes back down, it really picks up some speed. 

 which might hurt when caught, if it is caught at just the wrong angle..lol

 Maddie and Alec ready to launch again...

 Will and his girlfriend Abbie

 Maddie and her sister Abbie

 Walking back home..such a cute pic. These kids have all been friends since either birth-1 year old.

Packer Game...

In early September, the kids got an opportunity to attend their first Packer game for a preseason game.  A friend generously gave us the tickets and told us to go and have fun. It was only my second game as well and much different from my first experience with snow pants and boots to this game which was on a very warm day so it was t-shirts and shorts.

 Out of all the food Lexi could pick, she chose Pack'n cheese for her dinner. :)

What a fun night!  A bonus..we got to see a Packer win!

Fair time...

More catching up today...

A few pictures I took with my phone from our annual trip to the county fair.

Lexi and Grandpa on their annual tilt-o-whirl ride.

Rick, Will, Dad and Taylor on the Genesis ride.  Will's first time..he didn't look so good at first, I was worried, but after awhile he liked it and went on several more times. 

 Will and his godmother Jamie on the ride again the next day.
