Packer Away Game 2007

The guys Packer away game was in Dallas, TX this year. Unfortunately, the Packers didn't win against the Cowboys. :-(

Mark, Jay, Chip, and Fritz visit the Stockyards in TX.
I guess having 3 deer heads on our wall isn't so bad. :-)
Only in Texas will you find a Christmas decoration in the shape of a cowboy boot.

Nov-Dec 2007

Uncle Hip dances with Skylar and Uncle Mark dances with Makena for Chip's b-day.

This is what Makena does when asked "what does Brett Favre do"?

Nov-Dec 2007

Uncle Hip doing the Huck-n-buck with Makena.
Dec. 8, 2007 - Jars of Clay/Third Day Christmas tour. Awesome concert! Absolutely awesome! WOW! If you've never seen Third Day in concert, you're missing out! I'd highly recommend seeing them....you won't be disappointed!
Another pic of Third Day in concert.
One of the 4 does Mark got in 2007.
Makena, Uncle Mark, and Skylar.

November 2007 - Badger/Packer football game weekend

This is one of my favorite pictures of our niece Skylar (and I'm in the picture too...Jonay).
A very funny picture. Makena wasn't happy about something but Mark was trying to take a picture of Makena (in her grass (pink) skirt, princess top, and glasses) with Uncle Hip. I'm dying laughing because of the whole scene. Too funny!
Nov. 10 - Wisconsin vs Michigan football game in Madison. We brought home a victory with Wisconsin 37, Michigan 21. Chip and Mark before the game.
Jonay, Mark, Chip, and Fritz ready for the game. It was quite chilly that day. I think I had on my leggings plus flannel lined jeans and a tutleneck with a WI jersey and coat.....but I was still a little too cool for my liking.
Mr. Badger Hard Hat Mark.....they've been doing construction at the stadium for many years now and so it was appropriate for Mark to get his picture taken with the yellow tape.
Chip, Fritz, and Mr. Packer Hard Hat Mark outside Lambeau field on Nov. 11. This game was the Packers against the Minnesota Vikings. It was a great game with the Packers winning 34 to ZERO! At this point, Mark would say "Go Pack Go"!
We think this is a funny picture of Chip and Fritz. It looks like Chip and Fritz aren't really at the game.....just standing in front of a picture of Packer fans.....but, it's a true un-touched photo.
Packers are taking the field. Go Pack Go!
Jonay (dressed much warmer at this game), Mark, Fritz, & Chip. I think I had on leggins, flannel lined jeans, turtleneck, Packer jersey, Packer fleece pullover, and a heavy coat, along with ear muffs! It was a much more enjoyable game!
#4 Brett Favre getting ready to pass the ball.

A cute picture of our niece Emma.

Skylar and Makena dressed up as princesses for Halloween. It was cold out that night!
Jonay and niece Skylar play with Polly Pockets.
The following 2 pictures are of Mark with his buck that he got with his bow. Mark got 1 buck and 2 doe with his bow and 2 doe with his gun this year. Mark's quite excited, the taxidermy guy called just this last week to let us know this mounted buck is ready for pick up. I'm trying to contain my excitement. :-) jk

October 2007 - Washington DC trip

Kristi, Debbie, and Jonay at the Olive Garden.
Junior, Alison, Ali, David, Aunt Verna Mae, & Uncle Jerry at the Olive Garden. They were up in Maryland for a Clemson away football game when we visited Mike and Kristi in DC. We were able to meet up for dinner at the Olive Garden.
If you ever go to Washington DC, I'd highly recommend visiting the Library of Congress. It's awesome inside!
More pics of the Library of Congress.
Jonay, Dad (Ray), Mike, Debbie, & Kristi in the Library of Congress.
Mom and Dad (Carolyn & Ray) at the Lincoln Memorial.

A good picture of Carolyn & Ray.
Shhhh....don't tell anyone. This was Debbie's seat while in DC.


September 2007

Mark and Jonay outside a Dairy Queen.

Mr. Exasperation (as Mark calls the guy in the shorts). We park in the same parking lot when we go to Madison for the Badger football games and this guy is always there parking the cars. He runs all over the place making sure cars are parked just right. It's quite funny to watch him.
Mark, Fritz, Jonay & Judy ready for a Badger victory!
A funny picture of Makena (our niece).

The pink girls: Jonay and niece Skylar are dressed in pink and navy.
Mark got a doe in September with his new bow.
I love this picture of my sister Sherry and nephew Daniel.
A cute picture of Carson (Jonay's nephew-Gary's daughter).
