Long story short, my husband took part in a civilian's race up at Slinger Speedway.  Regular people get to drive cars from the race track and do a 6 lap race.  Everything was going well, until someone clipped the back of Kyle's car and he spun around and meet a cement wall head on.  His airbag open, and the emergency crews raced to get him out of the car.  Standing in the stands, I was shaking and essentially freaking out.  I knew everything would be okay once Kyle stood on top of the car, helmet in one hand, checkered flag in the other and took a bow in front 4,000 spectators.  Someone was watching over him that night!

Sorry for the shaky pics, my hands were shaking like a leaf

Don't worry there is a tent in the living room.....

For book club this month we had a pot luck and invited the husbands to join us.  I made some Italian skewers.  Add ingredients to a stick and pour Newman's Light Balsamic Dressing over them.   Ingredient ideas.... Tomatoes, olives, artichokes, mozzarella or cheese tortellini

When you finish a bottle of wine at Buca's they let you sign the bottle and they hang it on the wall.

We got a chance to head up to Door County for a friend's wedding this August.  There were plenty of opportunities for great pictures!  The wedding took place at an art gallery, with a blue grass band!

 I have been spending a few days in my classroom getting ready for the 2010-2011 school year.  I can't believe its already here!

My theme this year is camping/outdoors.  I used a lot of adorable owls and cutout of trees and animals that my mom painted.  I hope the 4 year old kindergartners are excited for it!

This was a week of playing catch up after our trips.  It included a lot of cleaning and reorganizing.  Sorry for the not so exciting pics this time around.  I did happen to catch some turkeys in the middle of the road though.

  Cleaned the fridge, exciting I know!

I want to plant some flowers like this next year...

Yikes, I even planned some field trips for the school year!

Kyle and I got a chance to hang out in our old town, NYC, this summer for 5 days!  We had a blast catching up with friends, exploring our old home, and attending a great Italian/ Puerto Rican wedding! 

We stayed on the Upper West Side near Lincoln Center
