Dave and Buster's

We were lucky to see Joe's brother, James, over spring break. James traveled to Kansas City and we took a quick road trip to meet him for dinner at Dave and Buster's. We had a great time eating and playing games. It was great to see James!

First the food. . . Then the games (Joe and Keenan)

Final Wrestling Tournament of the Year

My sister and her son Gage were able to go to Champman and see Keenan's last wrestling tournament a couple weekends ago.

Vist From Aunt Tam Tam

My sister and her dog, Lexus, came for a visit a few weekends ago. The kids always love it when she comes and it was nice for Joe and I as we were able to go bowling and have dinner with friends.

10-10-10

Chicago Marathon 2010: registration complete and flight booked I have decided to run the Chicago Marathon. I have wanted to run for quite some time but have always decided against it due to the fact that it is in October, which happens to be football season. (Yes, I am aware it is football season in October) I have managed to talk one friend into running it and two others to come along for the other great things Chicago has to offer (theater dinning and shopping). Joe still questions why I would want to run another marathon and I told him it is not that I want to run another marathon it is that I want to run the Chicago Marathon. It is going to be a great run and it happens to fall on 10-10-10! How cool is that??

MORE WRESTLING ACTION

Keenan, is not really a fan of the headgear he has to wear for wrestling. However, Keylee loves to wear Keenan's headgear and when we go to wrestling tournaments if I can't find Keenan's headgear I can genearlly find it on Keylee. I will say, I have never been a real fan of wrestling. However, this year has been a lot of fun to watch Keenan learn and compete. He seems to really like it and he does a great job. He has had a lot of success.

Phase 3 and 4 Complete

Phase 3 and 4 are now complete. Phase 3 was new white trim and casing. Phase 4 was installation of new carpet (which was almost as bad as moving).

Now we have been busy filling the nail holes on the trim and painting over the holes. Now that the trim and casing are up we see that our doors aren't quite as white as the trim and casing so now we get to paint doors. It is never ending . . . .

Proud Mama

Keenan had his second wrestling meet this past weekend in Manhattan. He had a lot of people (a/k/a "his fans") there to cheer him on. He wrestled well and finished second. He is really having a good time with wrestling. Joe and I have been so pleased with his efforts.
