We're off to see the Wizard!


Saturday night we had th pleasure of watching our little Catie performing in the Community Theatre production of the Wizard of Oz. CC was blessed with the opportunity to perform in 4 ensamble song and dance sets. She was a crow, a snowflake, a jitter bug and an emerald city resident. See was awesome up on stage! I can't believe she is so at home on stage. I am so very pround of her. Great job Catie, we love you!

Green Bay Packers Rock!

Oh, what a difference a week makes! The Packers pounded the New Orleans Saints yesterday 52-3. The point total breaks a record set in 1983 by the Packer team that included Lynn Dickey (QB), James Lofton (WR) , John Jefferson(WR) and Pual Caufman (TE). All of whom made the Pro Bowl that year. The offense seems to finally put all the pieces together with Brett Farve throwing 3 TD passes and Davenport rushing for 2 TD's. Unfortunately, Davenport also suffered a season ending broken ankle. The troops are getting a bit thin with Tony Fisher now the only experience running back with have. The big news for me though is the defense. Jim Bates has really turned this squad around with his aggressive, hard hitting style. This win is a really nice way to head into the bye week. I can reflect back on this game and feel good.

The Pack is 0-4...ARG!

My beloved Green Bay Packers are 0-4. We lost another heartbreaker on Monday night against the Carolina Panthers. Turnovers and Penalties dug us a pretty deep hole in the first 3 quarters. A dramatic and exciting 4th quarter comeback lead by Brett Favre's four TD passes almost pulled off a major come from behind victory. The defense is also played much better than last year and is one of the emerging bright spots this season. I knew going into the season it was going to be tough, but at this point I think we will be very lucky to come out of it with 5 wins. Oh well, got to focus on the bright spots. I was a very exciting game, and that made it enjoyable. You can appreciate the good until you've tasted the bad.
