Rehearsal Dinner

The rehearsal dinner was a BLAST! There was a polka band and Maggie danced to EVERY song! The band would take short break, Maggie would start to walk out of the bar, and as soon as they started up again, she would turn around and run back in to dance some more! She had no idea that she was going to have to do it all again the following night!

Aunt Jo and Uncle Mike came all the way from WA!

Little Switzerland....

It's been 2 weeks now, but we were in New Glarus, WI for 3 days when Uncle Doug and Auntie Katie were married on September 19! We took a "mini-vacation" and had a super great time in "Little Switzerland!"

This is what the kids say at daycare when they sit down for lunch.... I just think it's sooooo cute!



Open, Shut Them. Open, Shut Them.
Give a little clap!
Shut Them, Open Them. Shut Them, Open Them.

Place them in your lap.

Let us try to be the light (I think it's supposed to be "polite" but whatever...)
In everything we do.
Always remember our special words:
Please, excuse me, and you're welcome.
Let's eat!

Thank goodness Kleenex was on sale at Walgreens today....

Inside Papa's camera....

...Momma found all these great pictures! So we took the camera, uploaded them to our 'puter, and decided to share with you!

Silly Maggie....

Lucy is a rockstar!

Getting a bath in gramma's sink....

Not sure what they were looking at, but this picture is just too cute!

This picture isn't that great, but we included it because it shows off Lucy's shapely legs so well!

Maggie, reading the cookbook while Gramma bakes

Maggie was sick this past week and spent a lot of time in her jammies on Gramma and Papa's couch....

Gramma and Papa let Maggie play with "squeezers" (scissors) while they babysat the other day. Not so sure we're excited about Papa getting a "haircut....."

If you ever met Great Grandma (Irene) Sichmeller, this picture should make you laugh....
'Nuff said.

Why I don't let Maggie help with laundry....

If anyone can clue us in to where "boob rollers" may have originated, we would be so grateful....
