Bay Beach Pictures
Without further ado, here are some of the pictures we took on Saturday at Bay Beach. For those of you who have never been to Green Bay, I guess the best way to describe Bay Beach is an amusement park. It is has been there for years. It is awesome because it is so cheap. When I was little, the tickets were ten cents for the rides. Now, they are a quarter. For the kiddie rides, they usually cost 1 ticket. For the more adult rides, they tend to cost two tickets. You can easily go there with your family for an entire morning and not spend $20! The little girl we are with is my cousins daughter. Now, my sister couldn’t go with us since she had to attend a wedding instead. She did say that they gave away some pretty cool bridesmaid gifts. However, her husband was the one standing up, so they missed out on that. I think we spent about two hours at Bay Beach, and that was about the right amount of time. The kids weren’t crabby yet and still had tons of fun.

The Funeral . . . Rest In Peace Aunt Kay
I am writing this post from my parents house in Green Bay on dialup. I know that you may be wondering why I haven’t posted in a couple days. Well, Will’s 1st birthday was Saturday, and I will post more about that later. However, I found out on Thursday that my aunt had died after a 14 month battle with lung cancer. We knew it was coming, but it still sucks. I have been trying to figure out how to write this post for a couple of days now.
It was a sad long day. To get back in time, my parents and I left Chicago this morning at 3 am. Its about 8 now, so I am majorly dragging butt. It also was just sad and hard. I am so glad I came up for this. My uncle thanked me as I left tonight, because he knows just how far away I live (the funeral was 5 hours from my house). I wish Bill and the kids could have come up with me, but there was just no way to swing it.
I am not sure if I will be able to post tomorrow. It depends what time I actually get back home. I will be on the bus all day long, then have to take a cab to the train, then take the train to Midway. One of my friends is picking me up at Midway. Wish me luck and please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers.

Proposed Sign Change for Madison East on I-94
For those of you not familiar with Milwaukee, North 43 goes to Green Bay and South 94 goes to Chicago. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation may need some body shop supplies to get that sign up though. Being from Green Bay and living in Chicago, I found this quite humorous. I have a feeling my inlaws might not find it as humorous. How about you?
