Chicago Liver Walk 2009



It thankfully ended up to be a somewhat nice day for the 2009 Chicago Liver Walk. The girls and I along with family headed downtown. We raised money for liver diease and walked for my Uncle Pete who needs a liver transplant. Although we missed you Pete, we had a great time walking and showing off our awesome T-shirts for you.

Welcome our new pug Zoe


We adopted a pug from pug rescue. The name she came with was Zhari but we decided to change it to Zoe. She will be turning 3 on October 24th. She is having a blast with Daisey and the girls. Daisey was so tired the first night that I almost had to carry her outside to go potty before bed!!

Yogi Bear Camping Wisconsin


Camping at Yogi Bear in Caledonia, Wisconsin. The Berg family along with the girls and I set out to go camping one last time this year. We were going for 2 nights this time with the 5 kids but due to the rain on Friday we ended up going Saturday morning, but we had a great time anyway. The kids got to pick out pumpkins and paint them. Also later on that evening they got in their costumes and went trick-or-treating around the campground.

Laura's First Soccer Game 2009

Laura had her first soccer game of the 09-10 season. She is now on an all girls team and on a bigger field with a goalie. They all played really well and at times you could hear them huffing and puffing out on the field from all that running. I'm sure they all slept good that night, I know Laura did! Well the team lost but the score was 4-3 and Laura scored all 3 goals she was very excited!! Here is a video of one of her goals and some pictures. Go Royals!

Laura's first day of school - 1st Grade

Laura asked me for about a month almost everyday, "When am I going to start school mom because I am SO EXCITED?" Wow first grade! She was excited that she was going to get to bring her own lunch and would be walking to school everyday. The first week of school it rained but she was still thrilled to be walking!! I wonder how long that's going to last? Alex loved walking sissy to school too. Although I think she may be missing sis a little during the day.
