Our next kid's name will be Vince

Nathen and I drove home together after we picked them up from the airport. On the way there, he told me that we should try to convince Jennifer and Sara to go up to Green Bay to check out Lambeau Field. You can tell by these pictures who runs the families here...da boyz!

In past posts I have tried my best to explain Packer love and how it is a major string in the tapestry of Wisconsin culture. One can never fully understand how cool the Packers really are unless he or she has made a pilgrimage to Green Bay. Lambeau field is absolutely immaculate, its like the Palace of Versailles minus The Sun King plus Favre the Great. And the tours they give are very good. They've even managed to hire guides with thick Wisconsin accents. You get to sit in the most expensive seats, walk through the players' tunnel, walk on the field and hear all about the history of the team. I'm very glad that Nathen convinced us all to go up there. It's one of those little trips that we always said we wanted to do, but had never gotten around to. The trip up there was only an hour and a half, and Green Bay itself is very pretty, although we had a really hard time finding a place to get a good picture of the water.
