Coming to you live from the shores of Lake Tomahawk…pictures will post later this week when I find the sync cord for my Nikon.
We’re on day 5 of our 11 day Wisconsin vacation. Days 1-3 consisted of a highly anticipated annual golf outing for Mike with his college fraternity brothers. (He had ZERO fun) The kids and I spent an awesome weekend with my family on Silver Lake where Greyson entertained by pouring a cup of milk over his head at dinner and Graham ate sweet corn off of his highchair tray with no hands.

- Me: “Where did they go?”
- G: “They’re in my leg”
So, a few hours later, while putting his jammies on, he tooted. I said,“What do you say?” to which he replied “Remember, I lost my manners? I told you that already!”
I turned 36 a few weeks ago. 4 more years before Mike throws me a decade party. He doesn’t know it yet, but he’s going to outdo himself from my 30th (insert the winking smiley face here). We were reminded of how great that party was when looking at old pictures; especially Patrick Blessing’s homage, written and performed by him, accompanied by his big brother on guitar. It was the highlight of the party (parts of it made our families blush).
Graham’s 1st tooth came in a few days after my birthday and since then, he’s climbed the stairs on his own and is pulling himself up on everything and starting to cruise around. We give him 1 month before walking begins. His best new move right now though is waving hello with his left hand. Say hi to him and you’ll get a wave, guaranteed. It’s awesome.

We had our first order of fried cheese curds today. It’s not possible to come to Wisconsin and NOT order the fried cheese curds. At some point this week I’ll go for a run, but not tomorrow.
To those of you we’ve seen this week, thank you for contributing to an already memorable summer vacation. To those of you we have yet to see, we’re looking forward to additional fun in the sun.

Happy August!
