Green Bay Fun


enjoying the first twinkle cone of the season! When I lived in Green Bay our house was right by the Dairy Inn. They had (and still have) the BEST ice cream cones. They put this delicious concoction of peanuts and sprinkles all over the ice cream. OH, I could go for one right now!
Miss A did NOT like the twinkle. But Miss M was ready for more. Visiting Green Bay is fun.


1. The WOW sign is a Pepsi sign. Miss M loves to spy them where ever we go - this one we were able to stop and get a picture at.
2 and 4. Miss A was eating a Reece's peanut butter cup it melted all over her hands and she decided to rub it in her hair. She smelt pretty yummy!
3 and5. GO PACKERS! I can not believe that I had never taken the girls to have pictures taken in front of the stadium.

by my Granny's house is a great park. I love to take the girls there to play. There is also a little kiddie pool (I played at when I was little I have so many great memories of this park and pool from when I was Miss M's age) it wasn't open yet this trip, but hopefully we will get there later this summer!

Green Bay Fun

As many of you know I am from Green Bay - and am a proud Packer Fan! I love to travel up to my little home town. Eat at my favorite restaurant (I seriously had a bowl of chili every day I was there - you know the yummy kind served over spaghetti!) go shopping at the mall with my Granny and hang out with my brother and his daughter.
Even if the drive up did take over 4 hours (normal time is 3 hours) Thanks Harley Davidson!
And the road construction is endless - I still enjoy that drive up and back home.


1. Miss M by Lambeau Field after dinner at Krolls
2. Eating at Krolls the next day with Cousin Morgan
3. Miss A feeding Uncle Dave
4. Me and Granny (at Krolls)
5. Cousins Cousins and Uncle Dave
6. Miss M running and jumping off Granny's porch
7. Miss A walking to me!
8. Having too much fun in the pac-n-play
9. Miss M doing a Hannah Montanna pose (oh dear!)


I took the girls up for our annual Labor Day retreat. Keenan was scheduled to work so he stayed home. I wanted to go to Bay Beach, to the Wild Life Sanctuary and to finally take some pictures in front of Lambeau Field - but when it is over 90 degrees and you have a Granny who just had a surgery f0r her heart - it's best to stay in where it is cooler. We made the best of it!
My Granny spoiled us - and so did my brother. It always is a therapeutic trip for me.
Plus I love to see my girls be with my Granny. She is 90 years old - and I don't know how much more time we have with her - so I try to take full advantage of the time we have. Letting them stay up late to listen to her - eating her yummy food watching TV with her, writing little notes back and forth. I hope these are all memories that Miss M will remember and cherish. And through the 100's of pictures I take that Miss A will know of my Granny too. And who doesn't love a FUN uncle and a great cousin!

these are pictures of Miss A enjoying her FIRST ice cream CONE
and boy was my brother So excited that he was the one to give it to her!

Pictures of my girls with Granny -
it was so funny trying to get Miss A to hold still for pictures.
There was one shot - that I missed where Granny and Miss M
looked at each other and were totally laughing over Miss A not
cooperating - a memory I will cherish.


this is my brothers girlfriend Erin - she also totally spoils my girls!


Uncle Dave and Miss A - these were taken when we went
to the outlet Mall in Pleasent Prarie

Green Bay or Bust...


I was going to post another blog about our week in Utah - but K took the laptop on his trip and all my pictures are on there...oh well, I really should be in bed! WE are leaving (the girls and I) for Green Bay tomorrow - we are going to celebrate my Granny's 90th - that's right 90th birthday!!
Plus we are staying at a hotel with a water park - smallish but just right for little kids.

hope you all have a GREAT WEEKEND!!!
