Brewer Game 2009!

So this past Friday Ryan and I went to watch the Brewers play like we have been doing the past 4-5 years. I don't remember. Someone comment and let me know how long it has been. Okay me maybe only 3-4 since one year I was in the hospital and they did a Chinese Fire drill with me on the phone. So I was there in spirit and on the phone talking to Ryan.

We now go to the game on a coach bus. So much nicer than when we drove ourselves. One, the bus gets a closer so not that far to walk. Second, we don't have to pay for parking. This year was fun. Ryan and I got a really cute picture taken together. I think we will be doing that everytime we go. It is really cute. So I will include that and some other awesome pics that I took. Yes I was playing with my new camera. I was trying to find out how to take closer pictures without getting closer. I know. The obvious one is close-up. Well, didn't realize I had that feature until I started playing with it. So I will use that now everytime we go to the game. Here are the pictures.

Enjoy the pictures!


Aww! Aren't we a cute cuple?

Youth Room revamp!

Ryan and I, like the rest of the adults, at how AWESOME the youth room looks now. It looks so much bigger. Man what a difference it is with getting rid of some of the old stuff, and moving things around for a change. I know I said the scarry word CHANGE. Lutherans don't do change well. So we'll see how the congregation reacts to the change in the youth room. But in all honesty, it isn't their room. It is the youth's, and we are trying to get more kids to come. So hopefully this will help. We are doing this for them, so they can just enjoy it and spread the word that the room looks better now. Crossing fingers and toes that this works, amongst other things that we are doing.

Man a lot of sweat was shed tonight with rearranging and moving stuff out. The guys took out the desk, after us ladies cleaned it out and pitched a lot of old stuff. Then they tackled moving the furniture to make room to move the Foosball table, then they moved the TV over to the center of the wall, moved the pool table, and moved the air hockey table. In all honesty, it looks amazing. More seats, and the old ones went buh-bye. Don't want to give too much away. We want you all to see it for yourselves and let us know. It really does look like we have a bigger room now. I have to say pretty cool. Now just pray that when school starts or we have the gradn reopening, more youth will come and when they do. They will spread the word for even more to come. There is always hope. Our goal is for the adults that come, to not find a seat. Were we have to sit on the floor. Which would be awesome if that happened.

So Friday is the Brewer Game, Saturday watching my cousin's kids with Ryan, Sunday relaxing and going to church, Monday not sure, Tuesday not sure, and Wednesday is more CHANGE. But this time for the Youth Bulletin Board. Well, time for bed. Until next time. Night!

This is something I am proud of that we did Monday evening. The trail is about 45 minutes long. I would say that is how much we walked. I swear we walked the whole freaking park. I only had to stop twice to catch my breath. Hills, big hills, kill me. I mean kill my leags. I was sweaty and stinky but felt good later. That is one of the reasons why I need a good pair of walking shoes. My feet kept sliding in the shoes I had on, and my arches killed really bad afterwards. But Ryan will be keeping it up by taking walks with me. I don't know what it is. I do better with walking when I have a partner, and also being at Plamann. I feel safer with Ryan. So nothing can happen to me. My grandma is so worried when I walk their alone. Here is also what I plan to find at Rogan's tomorrow. Or something close to it.



Talk to you all soon!

This week has been fun!

Wednesday Ryan, Pastor Tim, Becky, Tracy, Ed, me, and the youth at GS went to Badger Sports Park. Man was that fun! I mini golfed, or as I call mini putt putt with Ryan, Kevin, and Taylor. We had a blast in our group. We just plainly had fun. Ryan got a Holie in One (picture to follow this entry), and me at the last hole won a free round of mini golf. Okay, actually in the beginning I had four tickets for the four of us. You would think when we were getting our golf clubs, that she would have taken all four. Umm no! That would have been way too easy for them to do. But I really am not complaining. At the end. I have 3 free rounds of mini golf. So we can use them next year when we go again.

Also, Wednesday my family from Texas came up for our family reunion on Saturday. Actually it is this whole weekend. Or as my dad says it started the moment they landed. That day they went to lunch in Green Bay, then my dad joined them at my aunt and uncles house that night. Last night was supper at The Stoneyard in Greenville. Their brand spanking new sports bar. They just recently opened like with in the last week. I have to say very good food, I had a fish sandwich and it was big, messy and good. They have Jose Cuervo Mararita's on Tap, pretty cool, and it is smoke free.

So tonight Ryan and I are either going to my grandma's for a camp fire with my family or going out with his co-workers. Who knows. He will tell me around 2:45 what is planned. Tomorrow we are heading up to Bowler, WI for my family reunion. I am looking forward to it. My brother and his wife are coming. He hasn't been up there ever. Since we started going up there for it. So that is cool. This year my dad, my immediate family is in charge of the meat. And we are also in charge of the meat for Christmas which is in our garage also. They rotate between all the siblings every year. Which is nice. So I will have pics from my reunion also. Enjoy the pictures of Ryan!
