Love and Basketball

Last weekend we had the opportunity to go to a few basketball games (as if we haven't had enough with the tournament going on).  By the way, what happened this year? My good friend Yakhouba, who plays for the Miami Heat, was in town.  D Wade is from Chicago, so they got to spend some extra days here, so we were able to benefit.  We got to see Kub a couple times, and he was kind enough to get us tickets to his games.  We got the chance to watch them play the Bulls here in Chicago, then on Friday we took a roadtrip up to Milwaukee to watch him play the Bucks. Great seats both times, and you can't beat free. Thank you again Kub!

We had to walk all over the place just to find this statue and get this "shot" magnificent isn't it.  Did I mention the wind chill was like -50 F eek.

Thanks for the tickets Kub. We had a great weekend
We're still working on him, He will be a hockey fan someday.

Before we went to the game in Milwaukee we tried to go to a secret restaurant, you had to know the secret password to get passed the secret door. Well... I don't think the place is very secret, if you have to wait 2 hours to get a meal. If I go to Milwaukee again for some reason, I guess I'll make reservations.

At the Bucks game.  This is the quietest stadium I have ever been to, except for Bogut's cheering section.  I would enjoy going to watch try-outs for that.  I can't believe he has to pay for their seats all year, just so SOMEONE will cheer during their games.

Going Green



No, I am not an environmentalist, it was St. Paddy's day! Since we are in Chicago, kev bot and I had to see the famous dying of the river. For all you environmentalists, it is entirely safe and environmentally friendly.

Birth Control



We are big fans of The Office. Last week was the baby episode...it ranks up there with some of my favorites. I was enjoying it so much, Kevin had the crazy notion that I had 'baby fever'. I assured him I did not, but he didn't seem so convinced.
Beginning the very next day, I was blessed with the opportunity of babysitting my darling nieces and nephews. I do enjoy them and was looking forward to spending some time with them. After cleaning up a ripe and messy blow-out, getting disowned as an aunt, and losing my nephew at the zoo, I think I recieved a strong dose of birth control. I can hold off on procreation for a little longer.
Unfortunately, or fortunately (I'm not sure)I do believe that the fever must have been contagious. By the time I had exhausted my welcome with these darling munchkins, they were so excited to see Kevin. You see, they are 'in luff wif him'. He is fun and, even bearded, all children seem to love him.
He didn't dissapoint. They got to be human bowling balls, cuddle with him, and get thrown around. He was definitely popular, and really cute. (especially with no facial hair). We love family and are sad that Kelly and Mike sold their house so quickly and are moving. :(

Oh Happy Day!!

Yay! The day finally came. I heard the buzzing of a razor, but I was not going to be tricked again. I was fooled once, but then, he came around the corner. The side burns were gone! the beginning of my clean shaven husband once again.
Since we had the hair, why not play with it.

Here is fun with shaving.
