Pictures!

We've got so many pictures to show off.  Going all the way back to this spring.



Bob & Leeann came up at some point.  Becky took them out for pictures.  Fonferrek maybe?  Somewhere with rocks & trees & water.





Sam graduated from High School!  Yay Sam!  About a week later he was in Milwaukee.  St Francis, to be precise.  Quickly got himself a job stocking shelves at Target and started figuring out the whole living on your own thing before school started in the fall.  He's attending Milwaukee Area Technical College to get a degree in Audio Production.


Ben graduated to 11th grade!

One weekend Becky, Tabby & I went to visit Sam at his place.  He lives, like, a five minute walk from a great beach with a beautiful view of the Milwaukee skyline.

We took a weekend to go to Michigan.  Spent a night in St. Joe with Becky's Grandma & Grandpa Chadderdon.  Their last week in St. Joe, in fact.  They have now moved to Nebraska.


Went to Sherry's place while we were there.


Becky has been giving herself photoshop assignments so she doesn't lose what she learned this spring in a class she took. We spent a whole afternoon at the botanical gardens getting good flower shots so she could turn pictures like this:

into this:


Plus she's taken us out just to snap pictures for fun.

Becky took some friends of hers from here in Green Bay along with Tabby & Ben and met Mikey's family at Eau Claire Dells.


On July 30th we went out and got pictures of the blue moon .. just like it was the evening before Tabby was born.

Becky traded family photos with a woman she knows from church for a spectacular birthday cake.

Summer fun at the water pad!


In August we all went up to Marquette, MI for the Ore to Shore bike race.  I mean, I guess the bike race happened.  We actually went there for fun on the lakes.  Tabby learned to fish with Grandpa Chadderdon.

Per tradition we hit Lake Superior after the bike race.

With exhausted bikers.

With a side trip to Black Rocks Beach



And more fun on the lake at the cabin.


We went to Alton, IL to visit Judy.  She took us to a park on the Mississippi River with an awesome fountain.



And took us into St. Louis to see the Arch.


Down to the School of Dentistry campus where they have a statue of Robert Wadlow, the tallest man in the world, who was from Alton.




A new year of school has started.  We have quite a group at the bus stop in our neighborhood.

Jack got his own place in Sheboygan and is working at Jimmy Johns again.

Just this last weekend we went up north of Cable, WI for the Chequamagon Fat Tire Fest.  Becky thought she'd try a "star trails" picture.

We relaxed on Lake Delta.


Tabby went fishing.

We hiked to St. Peter's Dome.

And Morgan's Falls.

Tabby got to be, literally, happy as a kid in a candy shop.

The race happened.

Ben & Ryan found some fresh water jellyfish. They're tiny. About the size of a penny.



And finally, just a cool picture took fooling around with some new tools she got with her camera for a wedding photo shoot this coming weekend.
