As promised - Halloween 2009

We definitely don't want to be Packers fans when we grow up...

***Coming Soon*** Halloween 2009

So, the theme to the Halloween party that I attended this year was:
"What You Don't Want to be When You Grow Up".

I didn't bring my camera, so I am relying on someone else to e-mail a picture from the evening.

Once it arrives, I fully intend to post it.

Stay tuned to see a photo of what I never want to be...

At the age of 3 years and 8 months, my nephew, Stan, has learned to ride a bike without training wheels. So cute.



Thanks to Andre for shooting and sharing the video!

Apparently it is the summer of towers.

Yesterday, Matt and I climbed the 151 stairs to the top of the Highland Water Tower.


The St. Paul skyline

You can also see the Minneapolis skyline.

Beautiful View

This afternoon, to close out our weekend up north, we climbed the stairs of the fire lookout tower near McGregor, MN. To be specific, we climbed to the top of the Big Sandy Lookout Tower.

This is how it started:

and 93 steps later...

Not a terrible place to find yourself.

It's Miller Time

A fun-filled weekend included a tour of the Miller Brewery in Milwaukee:

Did you know you get free samples?


Excellent.

Almost too warm!

I'm not quite sure how to react when it's hotter here than it is in Alabama.
