During the weekend of September 9th through 11th John and Amber went their separate ways John off to Madison for the Badger Football Game and a Golf Tournament with friends and Amber off to Milwaukee in search of a bridesmaids dress for Amie's wedding. We were each successful with John seeing Bucky win over Oregon State (a shut-out of 35 to 0) and having a great time at the Golf Tournament (although not winning) and Amber finding a sexy and elegant dress for Amie's wedding as well as having some very valuable girl's only time with friends.
The very next weekend (September 16th through 18th) John stood up in Jeremy and Jenna's wedding in Stevens Point, WI. We both had an awesome time hanging out with friends and family in Stevens Point as well as giving our hard earned money to some local drinking and eating venues in downtown Stevens Point :) The wedding was outside in a very pretty and elegant garden in Mosinee, WI and the reception was held at the Ramada Inn in Stevens Point. This weekend was capped off by the Packers winning against the Panthers. We had the pleasure of watching this game with Mike and Mary Okray as well as Tom, Sharon and Brandon Flugaur. A great end to a very fun weekend!
I'm not sure if you all know this but the Brewers are still playing baseball! (It's October!) And since John's friend Brandon won the opportunity to buy tickets to the game on Sunday October 2nd we were able to be a part of Brewers history. The Brewers won their second game out of five on that Sunday evening and we have never been at Miller Park when the crowd has been that electric! It was an outstanding game to watch! Although Adam and Becky didn't have tickets to the game, sad day :(, they did come to tailgate with us and it was fun to see them even if it was just for a little while.
Today Amber went to cheer on a co-worker who was running her very first marathon. She ran it in 4 hours and 36 minutes! Amazing job! We've discussed if either of us would ever want to run a marathon and I think that the consensus is no...we did discuss running the Green Bay Cellcom Half Marathon again or possibly the Green Bay Cellcom Marathon Relay (both take place in May) but we'll just have to see how we feel about it in a few months. It is exciting to have a goal, but it's very time consuming to put in all the training runs.
Well I guess that's all I have for this month! Stay tuned for next months edition! Rocktober is just getting underway! We're looking forward to more Packer wins, both our birthdays (28 this year...) and our trip to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic!
