Blizzard 2011

Tuesday night we were let out of work early because a giant storm was on the way. That night it snowed and snowed and snowed, but the worst part was the wind! It was hard to tell how much snow we were getting because the snow was blowing sideways. Through the night we heard the wind beat against the house and in the morning we woke up to 15+ inches of snow. Everything was shut down: schools, businesses, governments offices. Everything. All anyone could do was try and dig themselves out of their houses.

I didn't have to go to work because we were closed. Snow day! It was an awesome day.

Zoo a la Carte

How big is baby? sooooo big!

Got a new flash and did some trial and error.

Zoo a la Carte is where Milwaukee restaurants set up camp at the Zoo. Then you feast from the different tents while looking at animals. Well, when you go when it is dark, your stuck not getting to see the animals. But riding the train in the dark was totally worth it. Coolest little thing - they need to do it at Halloween.

Only a few mishaps for the evening... one nephew threw up :( and I lost my car keys in the dark. Said a prayer, went to the admin office and they had them!

Represent

Look what my friend Nick found and sent me. Yay Milwaukee.

Fall festivities

Does the woman in the last picture look like she is going to have a baby in a month? I say unto you nay. But it's coming up!

Apple cider donuts are delicious. Especially when they are hot and fresh and served with hot apple cider and a blustery cold day.

All at The Elegant Farmer.

Ballet this fall

Fine dancing, I believe like virtue, must be its own reward. Those who are standing by are usually thinking of something very different.
-Jane Austen-

Check out the ballet this upcoming month in Milwaukee.

State Fair

Shot a wedding, then ran to the State Fair. I don't think there is a Wisconsinite that doesn't like State Fair. The big thing this year was chocolate covered bacon.

I do believe every year I think, "Where do all these (types of) people come from?"

Sammy of course loved the rides, even though his feet never touched the ground and he could barely reach the steering wheel.
