We're Nomless

It's hot and it's humid out. Mother Hubbard's cubbard is very bare. But more improtantly... WE'RE NOMLESS!
Everyone on my softball team got their pictures. I got mine too. I pitched first for the first time in a game on Thursday. That was fun.
I am out of school along with my younger siblings. Even though I've been out of school for a little over a month I'm still not so sure what to do with all of my free time.
It's almost the Fourth of July and for our yearly Christmas in July party. Crazy I know. But every year just before Christmas, one or all of us gets sick and our holiday plans are shot.(Usually not me though, I'm not called "Old Ironsides" for nothing.) So we have started a new tradition by getting together during the summer when no one is sick. Last year it was at our house, this year it's at my aunt's house.

President Obama

Today the President of the United States of America, Mr. Joe Walsh - no I mean Mr. Barack Obama came to town. I know because of the many passes of the helicopter over my house,




the many road blocks and the plethera of armed men milling about with ear pieces



and large furry dogs on leashes.



The sharp shooters on the roof of the school lended a nice touch as well. Sorry - No picture, the camera had been substituted for a sandwich by then.

We did not actually see the President, but saw his motorcade rush in and even more quickly rush out. I would hate to have to travel with that many of my best friends everywhere I went!

We saw a man with a sign cause 3 men in black with ear pieces, perhaps secret service, one bomb dog, and a whole lot of Green Bay's finest converge in one location. Today was not a good day to cause a scene. Even a very quietly handled scene.

Wow - just wow.

HELLO ...HEllo ... hello

Peaking in...

Do you hear that? Shh, listen. It's nothing.

It's nothing because today is "take a kid fishing day" and my husband has taken our three children and the neighbor children to the conservation club for a day of fishing and fun.

Woo! Hoo! Shhh. Sorry. I won't be so loud.

Quietly sneaking out.
