The story of a 15 year old dream being fulfilled contrary to all rational thinking. Of giving up what most wouldn’t to live the life you want to, not the one you happen to be leading.

Kids on the Land
Ben was so excited we were home. He couldn’t wait to show us all of the great things he’d been up to all day…
Week 7, Badgers!
This wasn’t Kelly’s ideal way to spend the bye week, but it didn’t take long for the adrenaline to kick-in!
On the Road Again
What better way to spend the Packers bye week, than to head to Madison to see the Badgers play?
Little Boy Recovered
Yesterday was a nothing day with Ben sick in bed for most of it. The air and his asthma just didn’t see eye-to-eye.
All New Things
Whilst Kelly and Kathy hit the stores to stock-up our new apartment, the boys and I took to the town…
Kelly’s First Entry
My first Packers game. The first time I’ve left the boys all day. My first contribution to this site. What a day!
Week 6, Redskins
It’s taken six weeks, but I’ve finally been able to get Kelly to come to a game with me.
Philosophical One
I’m driving a V8 truck, we have our own apartment and we’re members of the YMCA and the Brown County Library. Pinch me…
Big Ol’ Truck
We’ve been offered the permanent use of our friend’s truck several times now and up until today we hadn’t taken it.
Comparisons
From the weather to shopping to the YMCA to television. Things are so different. Great! But different nonetheless.
Date Night
Our new apartment (maybe), hair cuts, a day of shopping and some alone time for two very worn-out parents.
Week 5, Bears
Talk about hype. The Packers vs. the Bears at Lambeau Field, under lights, in front of a nationally televised audience.
Homecoming!
At 30 years of age I know nothing about Homecoming that wasn’t taught to me by Hollywood.
Drive Time
Wanting to do everything we can in what little time we’re here can be difficult. Unless we get ourselves a car…
Playdate With New Friends
We started the day with strawberry and banana pancakes, then took a drive down to Appleton for the first time in our lives.
Where Have We Gone?
I must apologize for half a week’s worth of missing posts. Things have been pretty crazy since we arrived…
Week 4, @ Vikings
A road trip to Minnesota to play a divisional rival, in fall, as the rain was falling. My first look at an NFL dome and TD pass 421.
