Hooray!



I asked Willie about creating a blog to update our family about what is going on in our life, but he said no. Too bad! I created one anyways. Not a whole lot is happening in Baraboo at this time, but the beginning of the year started out rocky. However, things are back on track. School is almost out for me! This will be my last year in Baraboo. Next year I am making a transition and moving to the Reedsburg School District. I am pretty excited about this move, but a little nervous for the winter commute. Reedsburg is about 20 minutes west of Baraboo. We are hoping to stay in Baraboo since that is where most of my friends live. But a move to Reedsburg wouldn't be bad either.

Willie is still working in receiving/yard at Menards. He has kept pretty busy this year, especially as of late. This time of year is Menards' busy season. He has a good boss who lets him take off for special occasions, such as our trip we took to Vegas!

We went to Vegas from April 20-April 24. We went with my parents. I don't know about Willie, but it was the vacation that I needed to rekindle my flame to make it through the year. We went to see O, one of the Cirque du Soleil shows at the Bellagio. We also took a day trip down Historic Route 66 and to a small town called Oatmen where apparent donkeys roam the street. However, we got there and it was crawling with idiotic motorcyclists who had no respect for the donkeys. Someone should have called PETA. Here are a few pictures from our trip to Vegas.
