William's Birthday at the New Zoo

Sam's cousin William had his birthday party at the New Zoo in Green Bay this year. We all had a great time checking out the animals and watching them open their presents.

A good trip always ends with a nap.

Vist to the Firehouse

Sam and I recently took a tour of the Howards Grove Fire Department. They had all of the trucks open for the kids and dads to explore, they had real equipment to try on and some kids costumes too. They even had the opportunity to spray water from a real fire hose. Against the fireman's words, a few kids pulled the big horns on the firetrucks, it was really loud.

I'm a Fireman too!

Driving the truck.

That was a loud horn.

We had some Easter events with family this year and another at South High School. Sam had fun at all of them.

I'm ok...

This was too hilarious to pass up. We had gotten back from a restaurant and Sam decided that he wanted to finish his burger...on the kitchen floor. I simply gave him a suggestion on how he might want to sit on the floor.

If you can't remember or make the connection to why this is funny...see below.

Yo Gabba Gabba! Live!

Sam, Becky and I went to Milwaukee today to see the Yo Gabba Gabba Live! event held at the Riverside Theater. Despite Becky's and my lack of Yo Gabba Gabba knowledge, we all had a great time. Sam even did a little "dancy-dance" during some of the songs.

Sam finally tried on the DJ Lance Rock glasses.

 The whole gang was there.

"They're just taking another break."

Sam was heartbroken when the show ended and he had to say "goodbye".
