WAPSI Y

Molly, Abby Normal 2, KFC and Chalupa... waiting in line for camp.

As a child, Buzz went to Camp Wapsi Y, so it is cool to see all my kids follow in those ancient footsteps. In fact by now those footsteps are fosselized and may be eligible for an archiological dig! When Chalupa returns home, Beaner will be shuttled off for her Wapsi experience. Should be FUN!

Ann Arbor

The Ride was a cozy little plane. Actually, it was smooth flying in and out.

While I was there for an Executive MBA Conference, I took time to tour the campus. Here is a picture of their law school (library?).

I got in an early morning run around the Big House. It is indeed a very big stadium, and with the construction, it is getting bigger. Iowa will beat Michigan in a nationally televised football game on October 10th at 7:00 p.m. And remember, you heard it hear first. Go Hawks!

Guess What Dad Served for Dinner?

I just looOoovvvvveee....

Basghetti !!!!

Things I Did When the Girls Were Away

I walked the dogs, Tootsie and Koko.

I jumped on a trampoline at the Baseball game (see Buzz Dad's post below).

And I climbed on a jungle gym after church.

BD2 Does Baseball

Big Dawg and Buzz Dad - BD2, enjoyed an afternoon of Kernels Baseball. The Kernels won 11 -7 after fighting back from a 0- 5 run deficit.

Muscatine, IA. Late June. Chalupa is the blond haired kid with a pony-tail and white t-shirt.

The Magic reminds us it's more than fun and games. It's fun!

Big Dawg... the flower child?

Roscoe, the puppy down the street.

The Old Capitol... The University of Iowa Landmark

Independence Before and After!

Ok... let's line them up. This man is jonesin' for some "works".

Seriously, (and I quote), "I can quit any time I want".

I do believe the man (far left) in the red cap... is "rushin' on his run" and he "feels like Jesus' son". There are worse way's to spend a 4th of July, and as far as the Taylor's are concerned, there are few better ways to bear witness.

Happy Birthday Reevelettes!

Their faces say it all. Happy Birthday ladies. Let's do it again sometime soon. Perhaps next year!

Sky Bratvold

Michael Jordan, watch out! Here is Uncle PFFT! Looks to be a foot off the ground. He's soaring. He be da mon!

The Mentingettes Visit - Night two

Gang's all here: Peanut, Big Dawg, NokiDoh, Binzie, Chalupa and Beaner. Everyone is in tact.

Big Dawg and NokiDoh share a moment of buddi-hood.

BFF in the tent. Bets were down that they'd never make it through the night. We collected on those bets this morning when these two knuckleheads were discovered huddled in Peanut's bed.
