Well, we changed our plans today...

but definitely for the better. We intended to spend this weekend adding some insulation to our house. We went to Home Depot and talked to some guy named Jim, who was very helpful by the way, and realized we have a bit more work cut out for ourselves than originally anticipated. Besides, my dad called with a way better offer. He wanted to head up to Green Bay, because some of the Favre family was there to sign the "Favre" book. They were selling a special edition of the book in which the proceeds go to the Brett Favre Fourward Foundation for Hurricane Relief. My dad really wanted to go to give Bonita copies of the articles he had written about Favre (story 1, story 2). He was planning to mail them, but unfortunately there is nowhere to send them at the moment, due to Hurricane Katrina. So, needless to say, the insulation is going to have to wait for another weekend, because we went with him. We had an awesome time! My dad introduced us to all of the Favres, we went to the new Hall of Fame (which was very cool), wandered around the Proshop, got some dinner...what is cooler than spending a day hanging out at Lambeau...definitely not putting in insulation! Ross had been trying to get me the pink Packer hat for some time, but unfortunately they were backordered. But yea!...there were a bunch at the Proshop, so I got one :) What a great day....

Before I have to go, I need to send a shout-out to Shannon and Jeremy. They are running in the Chicago Marathon tomorrow. I know they'll do great. All of their training and hard work will come to fruition! What a great feeling that will be. Congrats, you guys!
