The verdict is out Elizabeth is 50-50

Some of our friends had this on their blogs so we thought we'd try it out.
Who do you think she looks more like?

"Go Pack Go"

We had a great time at the Packers/Chargers game. Lambeau Field is always an experience!!! It is the only thing in Greenbay besides a Kmart so you can imagine how rowdy and fun the crowd is. We did have a hard time deciding who to cheer for, in the end we cheered for the Packers of coarse and also our fellow Ute Eric Weddle even though he is a Charger. It's official (sorry morgan) we are cheeseheads!

Arrr! I'm a Pirate

Inspired by the scooner in the background, Catherine got me to pose for a picture. Unbeknownst to me, she was actually video taping. Here is the result. I hope it makes you laugh!

Scrapbook pages & Lake Geneva

THANKS TO MY SISTER RACHEL I HAVE COME TO REALIZE THE JOYS OF DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING. NO MESS, NO BUYING PAPER, IT'S FAST AND IT'S A LOT OF FUN TO DO!

We took a mini trip out to Lake Geneva last weekend and took Elizabeth swimming for the first time. The lake was a little slice of heaven!!! Elizabeth wasn't a huge fan of the lake water (as you can see from the middle picture), but she loved the sand. Catherine let Jackson watch her for a bit while she took a nap, within the time of Jackson on baby watch she managed to EAT sand. So there were a couple of firsts for Elizabeth this weekend.

Dilly Rolls: A little Slice of heaven

One of our good friends, Dr. Roger, introduced us to our favorite new recipe- dilly rolls. It's a bread roll with dill and a few other unexpected ingredients. We like it so much, Cat and I thought that we would share it with all of you. Here it is.....

Dilly Rolls by Dr. Roger
2 c Cottage Cheese
4 tbs Sugar
2 tbs Butter
2 tsp Salt
2 Eggs
2 tbs Minced dried onions
4 tsp Dill weed
1/2 tsp Baking soda
2 packages Instant yeast

Mix the ingredients, except for the yeast) in your mix-master machine. Allow to churn and add flour to dough consistency. Prepare 2 packages of instant yeast in separate bowl and add to the rest of the ingredients. Allow yeast to be well mixed into the dough. Remove from bowl and knead. Form dough balls and allow to rise on a non-stick cooking surface. Bake @ 320 for 15-20 until light brown.

There it is. Hope you enjoy it as much as we have. Let us know how it turns out!

Wisconsin State Fair (AKA Chub Fest)

1st pic is at lake Piwaukee during the sunset, we love going there for a nice swim and some relaxation.
The next couple of pics were at the Wisconsin State fair. If you want to get a taste of Wisconsin this is the event. All you can eat double dipped butter corn on the cob, fried everything including fried snickers (see the pic is above), brats, all kinds of flavored milk, and don't forget the pig races. The pig races were our favorite although our pig did not win. There were tons and tons of farm animals to see. Elizabeth even got her picture taken with a cow the same age as she is. We can't wait to take her again next year when she actually knows what she is looking at.

She can STAND!

Elizabeth is getting stronger by the day. If we hold her hands, she can support her body weight for a few minutes. It's neat to see her grow. Contrary to popular belief, Elizabeth does cry and fall into tirades. In fact, we were so desperate for her to take a nap that I suggested to Cat to drive to the mall. I hate the mall! That shows you how desperate I was. We went to the mall and Elizabeth fell asleep in the car and continued to sleep the entire time we were there. Maybe we should go to the mall more often!
