Three Funny Things about Alice

1. When she goes biking, sometimes she is scared she will run into bears. She pedals much faster than usual and really doesn't enjoy herself.

2. She thinks it is funny that the only thing to prove she caught three fish today was that her hand smelt like fish. Crazy, funny and weird.

3. She likes Brett Favre and has been his fan for many season as a Packer fan. Right now she isn't a Favre fan. If you are going to say you are retired, just retire and get it over with. Do not come to the team you play for weeks before training camp and want to play again. Get a life. Go fishing or something. Let the team move on. I hope they trade him(not to a team within the same conference) and that he has a not so good season(I am trying to be nice because really I would love to see him injured during week one!)

There are lots more funny things about me. Cherish the ones you just read, though. It was a good day. Slept in, lounged around, went biking, fished, played trivia, lounged some more, worked, and now I will sleep again.

Hummingbird Haven!

My parents have two hummingbird feeders. It is always enjoyable to sit and watch these tiny birds come and eat. Today was interesting because the birds kept fighting each other. My dad and I must have been entertained by them for about an hour.

It was also storming and we often are out on the porch enjoying a good thunderstorm. Not a bad day in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.

Now off to play softball. Should be fun as always, if not a little muddy and wet!

Spoiled Rotten Girl!

Today, I actually worked on the project I was supposed to be working on all summer. SIGH. It is coming along but slowly. Why is it that I can't ever get anything done unless it is last minute? What a weirdo.

What a spoiled brat too. I got two new pairs of shoes today as well as a pair of cargo Capris and a pair of shorts. My mom is way too good to me. She is definitely one of those people in my life that I will never be able to thank enough. Just giving me life alone, but then all the stuff she does for me and buys me. Thanks Mom!

Not much else to note today. I do have a date for fishing tomorrow. A guy my mom knows really wants me to fish on his "private" lake. (sounds fishy doesn't it, punny too!) Anyway. He said I could go to his house anytime and fish from his dock. I really don't know how to get there so one of my friends that I play trivia with volunteered to take me there tomorrow. Unfortunately, it is supposed to be stormy all day. SIGH. Luckily, there are more days in the week. I will get out there sometime. It should be pretty fun.

Well, spoiled brat must get her beauty sleep. I hear fish like to bite the lures of pretty people. :)

Clydesdales

Here are pictures of the Clydesdales from yesterday. My grandma was very excited to have her picture taken with them. She liked that she wasn't supposed to technically get that close and still did. Little scandelous rebel. If you are compeled to rush out and buy said beer, I apoligize. I know the power of those horses is pretty strong!

It was fun to have the family in town this weekend. I really do have an awesome family.

I really don't have much else to write. I am tired. Probably has something to do with me sleeping for two hours this afternoon. I am not usually a napper, or a rapper for that matter. Similar spellings and I am neither, really.

Went to church today. It was weird. Always interesting to hang out with the Mormons in Wisconsin. It was nice to go because I hadn't been in three weeks. Been a very busy month filled with travel.

Well, I think that is all I have in me tonight. Sleep well. Or stay awake if you are working. Millions on Welfare are depending on you to work hard!

Family....isn't it about time?

This weekend has been a great one. Last night, a couple of friends came up from Wausau for dinner and games. We started with Ladderball, until some crazy clouds came rolling in from the North. The pictures are okay but, man, those clouds were something else. The sky was a weird orange-brown color and they started to swirl as two different fronts collided. It was cool and scary at the same time. You could actually feel the cold air start to mix with the already warm air. I love weather, I am not going to lie(I am no good at it!). I like that we don't just have sunny days all the time. I think I would get very bored. I am glad that Heavenly Father made the world a very diverse place. It rarely is boring! Except maybe Kansas, that place is boring.

My Uncle Joe, his wife Connie, my Grandma Huven, and my Aunt Kathy have all come to visit for the weekend. Today we went to see the Clydesdale Horses (I couldn't believe that hundreds of people would stand around to see a beer commercial in real life!) unload. There was a big parade as they delivered beer to The Mayor(I don't really suggest that we start delivering liquor to our paid officials, they have to make big decisions and I think they should make those decisions with clarity!), as well as local bars that sell their product. It was neat, I have to admit, but I was still a little peeved by the commercialism of the ordeal! After the horses, we headed to the farmers' market and the Logging Museum. It was a very fun morning. We then came home ate lunch and here I am blogging again. I really like chill Saturdays.

If you are reading this and have not blogged in a few weeks, get on it. Seriously, you can't just live vicariously through me all the time. I need to hear about you too!!!! If you are offended by me adding this to my blog, too bad. Offense sometimes means guilt. JK/LOL

Well, I am off to chill more with the family. My grandma is so very cute. I will have to take some pictures tonight!
