Our Trip to Milwaukee for the 4th of July Weekend

This past weekend we were in Milwaukee, staying with my cousin James and his wife Anne. We got in to town just before dinner on Thursday, July 3rd. We all went out to eat at Ma Mia’s Pizzeria. I grew up eating Ma Mia’s Pizza and it is by far my favorite pizza. After we all walked to get Gelato or Italian ice cream for desert.

My brother Tom Cutting some decking

On Friday the 4th we did much. The Anne and Amy took the boys to see a parade in Wakisha. Wile they were there James’ dad, my dad, my brother Tom and my self all helped James with his deck. It was very clear that my Uncle Dennis was very good at this kind of thing. After working on the deck the kids all went swimming at the local pool. That evening we had a cookout at James and Anne’s place on almost done deck. Almost all of the family was there. Afterward we all walked to the local park for the fireworks. It was once of the best displays I have ever seen.

Our Shining star

On Saturday the 5th we took it easy in the am. James and I took the boys to go ice skating at Pettit National Ice Center ware the Speed Skaters train. Later we went to see the Milwaukee Brewers play baseball. We had a tailgate a few hours before hand and then went inside. The game was short and sweet and was just the right amount of time for the boys.
