Milwaukee

We made it to Milwaukee!  For a couple of days prior to leaving I was a little worried we wouldn't make it.  Brenna got the flu Saturday night and so I figured by Wednesday it would be someone else's turn. Thankfully we all stayed healthy.  Brenna was not 100% but she was healthy enough to go. Whatever bug is going around is a nasty one.  We stayed at a hotel with a little waterpark and the kids had a blast playing.

If only I could give Brody open eyes, this would be an even cuter picture. Brenna and Brody had smiles the entire time.  I love watching them have fun.
I'm not sure what Brody is doing with his head but he did the same thing for a few other pictures.

Thursday afternoon we headed to Miller Park for a Brewers/Dodgers game. The weather was beautiful and we had a great time! Too bad the
Brewers lost. 
Waiting for autographs...

I took these pictures for Brody.  They are of two of his favorite players, Rickie Weeks and Prince Fielder. I almost made the mistake of buying Steve a Milwaukee Brewers' shirt that had Hoffman on the back. Brody informed me that, "Hoffman sucks." I did tell him he should use the word "stinks" instead.
We knew Matt and Carrie were going to be at the game but didn't know if we would find them.  Shortly after sitting down, we spotted them just across the field from our seats. Two people who were sitting by Matt and Carrie left the game so Brody, Brenna, and I went to say hi after Matt called to tell us about the people leaving.  Brody and Brenna were going to sit with them for awhile but it never happened because we were booted out by the usher! Oops..well at least we got to say hi and chat for a few minutes.  It was also fun to see the action from the front row!
We headed to the Family Fun Zone for a little break from watching the game.
 Friday morning we packed up and headed to the Milwaukee Zoo! Again, another beautiful day to be outside.

Brenna can be so photogenetic when she wants to be!

The perfect way to end a great day at the zoo...ice cream!
It was great getting away for a couple of days as a family!  Tomorrow I am back to work so I will have an excuse as to why I fall behind on the blog. :) Have a great week!
