A message...

Jon was upstairs yesterday. I could hear him taking pictures or monkeying with the camera. I had my wedding dress pictures saved on it and I was afraid he would scan through the pictures he was taking and see the dress. He said he didn't, but this is what he was up to.

I love you too.

State Fair

yesterday we went to the State Fair after work. It didn't take long to get there and it was only $3 to ride the bus from Brookdale-what a deal! plus no wasted gas.

I was on a mission-food. I wanted to eat lots of fair food-I didn't feel as bad eating so much when Jon was eating 1/2. I started with the corn cob (one all to myself), then Jon helped me with the rest-cheese curds, fish and chips, chicago dog, beergarita, chocolate chip cookies and 2 glasses of milk (the cookies and milk I also had by myself).

Jadah and I went on the Skyscraper. I wanted to do it, then I didn't want to do it when I found out how much it was-$25. Margaret said I had to do it, because you never know where I'll be this time next year-meaning pregnant or with kids. Then I wouldn't be able to go on it, so this was my chance. She slipped me and Jadah some money and off we went. The pictures Jon took were not great-mostly blurry. At 4Gs what can you expect. Thank God the man tightened my straps so hard at the beginning that I couldn't breath, because when we were upside down speeding towards the ground with nothing to hold onto but those straps, I sure was glad they were tight.

Last, but not least...what has the state fair come to when our children have to see statues of this:

Happy 50th Birthday!

I'm a weekend late, but I just remembered I had these photos on my camera. Happy Birthday Mike!

Star Wars

So it's been a while. We actually did this last weekend, but I haven't had a chance to upload and write. Here are some photos from our trip to the Science Musuem exhibit on Star Wars.
