Easter Break

Today is the last day of Easter break for us.  The only thing that doesn't make this day a poor one is the great weather AND the final round of the Masters (which long time readers will recognize is Rob's greatest day of the year). 

It has been a fun break with weather somewhere between 80 degrees and snowing and back to 75 degrees today.  Here is a little photo expose on what we've been up to.

Sports
On Easter Sunday we went to the Milwauke Wave's MISL Championship soccer game.  We had great seats and despite going up 6-0 the Wave lost 12-6.


On Wednesday we also went to our long awaited Milwaukee Bucks game.  Owen had been talking about the Bucks for some time and wore his jersey religiously.  Unfortunately, the two jerseys we have are of two players who were injured and didn't play (Michael Redd & Andrew Bogut).  The Bucks won, we got on the jumbotron, our section won free Quarter Pounders with Cheese, and free Bango bobble heads).

In our seats, we were there a little early.

Hanging Out

Home Improvement
We also spent some time at the B-town house working on things we should have improved while we lived there.   I had some basement wall work to complete and it turned out really nice (see, should have done it when we lived there).  I had put shutters on a while ago but I had some outside work to do also.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone!  It is kind of a strange Easter as no family are around.  We went to church this morning and this afternoon we are going to the Milwaukee Wave MISL championship game.  Should be a fun time.  Here are a couple pictures of the Liam and Owen.

I'm Back!

I know, I know, I missed the ENTIRE month of March. That is the first time in three years of blogging that I've missed an entire month. Things got real hectic as the Chateau MOVED!!! Well, sort of. Being sick of driving, etc... we moved into a rental house in Milwaukee. The strangest thing about the whole deal is probably that it is the house I grew up in! Very weird, but only about 10-15 minutes from Risen Savior.

The Old Abode

I also wanted to keep everyone updated on Owen's progress.  He has gotten through all of his Dr. appointments and they seem to say everything is OK.  He does have a little white discoloration on the right side of his face, but nowhere near how bad it looked at first.  We are having a little difficulty not letting it get burned by the sun.  It seems to be a little red right now but the long term prognosis is an all clear with no scarring or discloration in the long term.  Amazing how the body heals.
