Smirk! i heart faces

Smirk: A smirk refers to a smile evoking insolence, scorn, or offensive smugness.

The i heart faces challenge is "Smirk"...and my little guy Jack Jack has it perfected.  This shot was from just last weekend at Cheese Days.  Of course, that cheese head cap that is helping him feel "smirky".

Check out i heart faces for all the great Smirk entries~

Cheese Days hits Monroe!

Cheese Days 2010

Every other year the city of Monroe stops everything to celebrate our love of Cheese.  Yep, I live in a pretty great place!  And as you can see we got into the spirit of things this year!  The boys in their Cheese head hats and Cheese Days shirts, while Tessa sported a Cheese Days shirt and tutu. Jud and Drew wore their Laderhosen (spell check please) from their Dad's childhood and I wore their Grandma's traditional German dress.  Of course, the attire is a total rebellion against all fashion sense, but it is fun.  And just like "When in Rome"...wear else could you actually get away with this!?

To top it off, my brother's family came to enjoy the festivities with us.  So, it was a weekend of play, cheese curds, parades and of course, there was always yodeling in the background.

The Power of Cheese!

How very "Wisconsin" of us....our weekend was full because of Uncle Bing's U.W. celebration, Cheese Days and Flag Football for Juddy. 

 The "Power of Cheese" photo of the family was at the Cheese Days Parade.  The kids absolutely loved it!  There was so much to see that Jack stayed awake in his stroller despite it being way past his nap-time.  Juddy and Drew were on a mission to collect as much candy as possible.  Darn, now my candy jar is full again!   Andy and I went out on the town for Cheese Days.  The square downtown was full of the sights and smells of people drinking beer and eating cheese curds.  It actually was a fun night to see people out and enjoying our little town.

Juddy had a great 1st flag football game!  Here in the photos you can see Juddy running in his very first touch down.  He was so proud!  I was too!  Now this is my entry into an interest in football!

Andy and I also celebrated Uncle Bing's career as Chairman of Surgery at UW-Madison with a black tie dinner.  Now that doesn't happen everyday.  Despite my very high heeled shoes killing me, we had a great time and looked great too! No photo to prove it!
