Man from Milwaukee
This morning I decided it would be fun to drive the hour to Milwaukee as none of us had ever been there. (it's still so weird to me that we are only an hour from there) I had looked up attractions to do while there, of course nothing ever goes as well as it is planned out. But we had a good time. We first went to the historic third ward, well what I didn't know was a huge festival calle summerfest (apparently its really known) was going on. It's a huge music concert and today was family day so we all got in free. It probably would have been really neat had it not been 103 out. So after an hour there we went to eat. I google a few place and this pizza shop called classic slice got great reviews so we went with that. Now driving there was really sketch and not going to lie when I saw it I was very hesitant to go in but we did and the food was soooo good, expensive, but good! After that we went to go see the horticultural domes, what the website failed to tell me was that it cost $7 a person to get in. For starts I was not about to pay that much for us to walk around and look at plants in the heat, I could do that for free outside! i know Kaite and Sean were glad we didnt go i could see the look on their faces when i originally said thats where we going! So I went up to the ticket sales lady and asked if she knew of any other activities around there (Lynne you would have been so proud) so I made the decision to go in the Miller Brew Tour. You know that's what every family should do with their 17 month old! Lol. Oh well, it was interesting. Jace did so well on the hour long tour that consisted of walking outside, up 56 stairs, siting in a factory with no air that was 110 degrees and jace pooping 5 mins into the tour! All while mommy carried him! I can honestly say I earned those two free beers at the end of the tour! We were all pretty much exhausted after that and decided to drive home. On the ride home we ran into a huge Midwest storm which was cool for Kaite to see. After an hour at home I discovered the Vera Bradley outlet (which is an hour away) was having a major sale, so the wonderful husband Sean is said lets go. So we hurried in the car it was 7:08 and it closed at 9! So in total we drove over 250 miles on our adventure today! Hopefully everyone sleeps great tonight, I know I'm exhausted!
