mississippi

so...i was going to get this posted right away...but didn't have the pictures to do it with. this past weekend we went to see my good friend from school, taci. she lives in milwaukee, but her parents live in lacrosse...so we met halfway there. we left on friday and came back saturday, which made for a short trip...but it was fun nonetheless. there was a great park across the street from the house and madelyn loved running all around there and of course swinging.

we went to the mall for a quick little time to let the weather heat up a bit more and to pass time. i couldn't find anything for me...it was quite depressing...but oh well!

after the mall we ate at a restaurant next to the river and took a picture of maddie on this jet-ski ride. we didn't have any quarters with us to let the thing do what it did, but the pictures are pretty cute anyway.

then we headed to the mississippi where we spent the rest of the afternoon. it was gorgeous out and madelyn had a BLaSt! she'd run into the water and come back out on dry land...then we'd splash...then i'd hold her up and swing her into the water...she just loved it all!

we got back to the house and had to leave to pick up mitch who was at his college friend's house. the weekend was great and i'm glad we went!

today i accepted the job at the furniture place...i don't know how long it's going to last, because i just don't know if i can work weekends and be away from maddie, but the pay might justify it all...so we'll see how it goes!
