Ryan's Weekend in Wisconsin

Well I am now catching up on some photos Ryan took when he was back in the States over the Thanksgiving weekend. He was suppose to leave Kuwait Thanksgiving night and go right to Wisconsin to go deer hunting. Due to some snow in DC he left an entire day late and only ended up having one night at the cottage. They made the most of it though.

Here are the men! My Dad, Bob B., Ryan, and his Dad

Ryan got to turn the key of our cottage for the first time as the owner!

And see our name on the sign.

They stayed at my parents cottage though, as they have central heat and we don't.

Ryan was able to hunt Sunday morning, and unfortunately didn't get one. But they still had a good time. They played some cards,

and visited the local bar the Trading Post.

Only in Wisconsin!

It wasn't all play though, they did a lot of hard work too. They raked the lawn at our cottage.

And they cleaned out the garage.

They worked hard and played hard and Ryan really enjoyed getting to see our cottage now that he owns the place!

Love, love, love the cottage pics! But, I'd have to say, you can also find toddlers behind the bar in NOLA ;-) As they say in Louisiana, "If you can reach the counter, we'll sell to ya!" Can't wait until you're back stateside!!
