Moose Sighting

What a beautiful weekend! The sun was out and the crisp air was taking a slight break so we spent a majority of our time outside. The hat and gloves didn't last long because it was rather warm however for the sake of this photo opportunity Ryan modeled his new winter gear.

Face Painting

Last weekend Ryan and I went to a Fall Festival that our company put on for the community. The little man was too young for the balloon hat station so we took a crack at the face painting clown. As you can see in the picture above Ryan is really enjoying this experience. I though his having the gourd to chew on would distract him - clearly I was wrong.

This was the end result - a messy clown face...

The best part was that he feel asleep on the way home and took a two hour nap. When he got up our first stop was to the mirror - I have never laughed so hard in my entire life as when I saw his expression.

October 3rd Heart Walk

This was my fifth year leading the Appleton Heart Institute Heart Walk Team. We had over 300 walkers on our team and although it was freezing cold the event was a great success. In this picture I am handing out red boas to all our walkers.

Good Times

Deborah and I took the kids to Bay Beach, a small amusement park here in Green Bay. There are only a few rides the kids could ride but it was something different to do. Only $3.50 for tickets to keep the kids entertained for hours - I have no idea how the place stays in business. I was a bit nervous that Ryan would try and crawl out of the rids but he didn't. Regardless I had one foot on the chain link fence in preparation of a needed "wonder woman" jump to save the kids from a nasty fall.
