Noah's football

Hi all,

Noah played his last football game this weekend. We traveled to New Glarus for a 9:00 am game (we had to get up really early, at least for Noah). Noah played great! They won 26-0. There record this year was 1 win, 1 tie, 4 loses. I am happy then ended the year with a win.


The other 7th grade team has a game this Saturday, so Noah has practice on Monday and Thrusday to help get the other team ready for their game.


Have a great week!

Engaged!!!

So Rob and I had a big weekend. We got a new puppy friday and when I got home and saw him he had a little black box with a ribbon around his neck that held a diamond ring. So we are now engaged and planning a wedding for late Aug. early Sept. We are really excited and are having so much fun with the new puppy. Maggie still doesn't know what to think but she will warm up to him soon enough. His name is Huntington because Huntington Beach is were Rob and I used to work in California. He is an Australian Shepherd. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. Hope everyone had a great week! Love you and may God Bless you!!

I had another one of those moments

Good Morning everyone.I have something I want to share with you all this morning. I had one of those money saving and memory moments yesterday and I can't keep it to myself. Have you ever heard of ALDI grocery store? Well I went there yesterday for the second time but the first time alone. Do you cook or maybe you microwave? Well with some training you can become an expert Aldi shopper. First you need a quarter and either debit card or green cash. The quarter will get you your cart(yes you get it back when you put your cart back). You need to take your recycled bags or green bags to bag your groceries and admire your savings again. The food is good and the prices are even better. You can be a cook or a microwaver or even just a salad and sandwich person. It is a great store for every kind of eater. So I went and got my groceries yesterday and had one of those "When I was 12 moments". I remember going with Mom to this place in Madison that sold dented canned food by the case. Mom always had her white envelope of money at home and took the cash to the dented canned store and we went shopping. We get to the store and go in pick out our cases. Mom must have paid for it because we took it to the car and loaded up and went home. Now for the fun part. When we got home we took the cases to the basement where the pantry was waiting. I loved unpacking the boxes and arranging them on the shelves. I got that feeling as I walked through the store as I saw the food displayed on pallets and not white shelves. FYI: Aldi is not like the case selling warehouse but it does save you money with quality food. Now the moral of the story is: You never know what life skills you will gain by arranging canned goods on a shelf. Organization is Priceless.
Have a great day and organize a drawer. Julie

Good Morning it's Fall



Hi all! I just thought I would share a little smile for your cool Friday morning. Ashlynn and Grandpa like to share ice cream, and we finally took time to take a picture. She actually licks the treat and Grandpa catches the drips and takes a bite too. Have a great fall weekend.

BTW I am still waiting on a couple of answers and then I will do the Christmas drawing. If you have changed your mind and want to be added or dropped let me know it is not too late.
