Over the Weekend

Ready to go on night shift for the week in the Milwaukee area. He's been traveling across Wisconsin with co-workers setting up new Microsoft booths in Best Buy stores for the past few weeks. His absence is gradually easing me into the fact the he'll be gone to boot camp soon. Bittersweet.

"Monkey-ing with my new smart phone. I've never had one and I'm excited at how well the photos turn out (for a phone). I like how I am able to access anything on the run and post to the blog from my phone. John is already using tons of applications on his new Galaxy. We both feel like little kids.

Cousin Jacob was so excited that he got to ride in the black car.

Jojo is low on iron. I'll have to eat more red meat.

 Jacob knows what to do with that gun. Johnny looks so self-conscious.

I think Joachim will like to ride these boats next year when he is bigger.

Aidan sporting a ponytail that Elizabeth pulled together to give him a nice up-do while he took a cat nap;-)

Have you ever been to Five Guys? Me neither until yesterday. Guess how many guys I went with? You guessed it - five - Daddy, Nathan (who treated us), Andrew, Gabe and Jojo. Isn't that a co-inky dink?

It is definitely a guy's hangout. Big greasy burgers (bleck) served with a side of peanuts in the shell.

Playing Four Square at the end of a full weekend.
