Flash Back of 2012


1. We started out 2012 with a bang and got hitched on January 7th! 
2.  All in a three week period we celebrated Christmas, got married, had an amazing time in Riviera Maya for our honeymoon, and celebrated my 27th birthday at our gift opening.  Whew!  What a whirlwind!
3. Even though the Wisconsin winter was mild, we still were able to find enough snow up north to brush up on our snowboarding skills.
4.  Took a rode trip to Lacrosse, WI with my brother where we did some antiquing and great hikes.
5. Were exhausted after a full weekend of hiking at Pictured Rocks Upper Michigan with friends.
6. Met up with some friends from Minnesota midway in Wisconsin Dells at the Chula Vista resort.  Didn't swim in the waterpark, but played lots of arcade games.
7. Graduated and got a job!  My husband earned big brownie points by giving me a Kindle Fire for a grad present! Love it!
8.  Got filthy in the Madison Mud Run.
9.  Had a shuttle launch at the park to watched Ryan's homemade rocket take off for outerspace.
10. Take me out to the ball game!  Gotta love cotton candy, but hate the sticky fingers!
11. Initiated our new tent (wedding gift) in Eagle River, Wisconsin with friends.
12.  Got in some quality family time camping in Ouray, Colorado while the husband was out of town.
13. Had some sibling bonding time at Six Flags! Love Raging Bull!
14. Ryan ran his first half marathon.
15. Spent a day with friends at Devils Lake State Park hiking and having a cookout.
16.  Went to an amazing wedding in Milwaukee for a weekend and stayed at the beautiful Pfister Hotel.
17. Welcome to Bahhh Harbor.  Ate too much lobster. Saw no whales. Did a crazy hike.
18. Saw the famous fall colors in Door County.
19. Winter camped in New Glarus, WI during opening hunting week. Luckily we weren't mistaken as a deer.
20. Enjoyed our first Christmas as newlyweds!

It's been an amazing 2012!  Wonder what 2013 has in store?

What was your favorite part of 2012?

Fridays at Jansens

Flip flopping over where to go for Friday night fish? If you are ever in the Oshkosh area, one of my favorite stops is Jansens Bar and Restaurant at 344 Bowen St.  I've been there a couple times and have not been disapointed!  Last night we walked into a full house.  A friendly old couple sitting at the bar began talking to us as we waited for a table, and told us all about their grandchildren.  The waitress then led them over to their "usual" table in the back corner.  The small, hometown, everyone is family type of atmosphere is what you will get when going to Jansen's.  So next Friday, don't contemplate on where you are going...take a drive to Jansens!  Check out there menu online.
