10 Year Class Reunion

I had my 10-year High School Class Reunion over Chicken Days about 2 weeks ago, surprisingly I had a really good time. It was good to catch up with some of my classmates. 10 Years still isn't quite long enough to be away from some of them, there are still the little clicks, but I was pleasantly surprised with most of them! Nick got along really well with one in particular, they started talking tattoos (imagine that!).

Chicken, the Egg and my Grandfather?!?!?

Chicken Days was July 13th & 14 and this year's theme was "Cluck-nology". This year's Chicken Show was pretty eventful. Both myself, my dad and my father-in-law, had our class reunions, mine was my 10th-year, dad's was his 35th-year and my father-in-laws reunion was his 50th-year. We were kept busy all weekend! This year was back at Bressler Park, which was really nice because there is way more shade, and it was a HOT day! We took in the Omelet Feed, the Parade, the Chicken Feed and a few of the contests. My grandfather even participated this year in the Parade. He was on the float for the Wayne Senior Center, he got half-way naked and sat in an old washtub pretending to take a bath and shave his face!!!!! It was hilarious and I still can't believe he did it! Everyone around Wayne has been talking about it and he even made the front of the newspaper!! I'm so proud!!

This is our nephew Augie, he will be 5 in October and just started learning
how to play hockey. Here are a few pictures Dan sent us. We can't wait to
go down to Omaha and watch him play sometime.

My Celebrity Look-alikes

So since Marisa and Scott did this I thought i'd try it!! Not too sure i'm stoked on looking like Tara Reid, but oh well!!



Here is Nick's -- he's not a big fan of Billy Bob, so he probably won't like this!!

big, Bang, BOOM!!

Just some pictures from our little fireworks show we had. July 4th is also my Mom's birthday, so we usually do it up good! We always buy a lot of fireworks, but this year I had bought about $15 worth to give my mom as her b-day present, and then everyone that my parents had invited over had also brought over fireworks, so we had quite a bit this year, no complaints though!!
