This boy made my day!

His sister begged him and his dad to come to our Underwear run so she could go see Carrie Underwood! He was the most adorable little 5 1/2 year old boy EVER! He says to me, "I can't believe I am running in my underwear!" I love the look on Doug's face in this photo! He is laughing so hard! What a blast! This just proves that being on the radio is the most fun job on the planet!

Breaking Dawn could be Rated R?!?!


Did you read Breaking Dawn? Well, if you did, you know it is very Rated R. So, they would like to keep the movies as close to the book as possible! They are saying the movie may have to be Rated R! Would you still let your kids go? How do you let these little girls go to all three movies and then say no to the final one? Hmmmmm? I hope they think through their audience on this one!

Dresses for Haiti



Do you sew? Do you have extra supplies? Do you have any money? If so, you could help with one of the COOLEST projects we have heard in a LONG time! Our buddy Mike's mom started this project where she makes dresses for the little girls in Haiti. You can make dresses or just donate!!! Contact her to find out how you can help out! She is also sending them flip flops...so if you see any on sale grab some and drop them off! What a great idea! I just love this. Click here to donate!

High Cliff Triathlon


First of all how AMAZING is it that we have High Cliff State Park in our back yard!? I go there all the time to run, and hike and spend time with my family! I just love it there. I get my State Park Sticker every year in January and use it like crazy! One of the best Triathlon's of the summer is coming up in just a few weeks! The High Cliff Triathlon: you still have time to sign up! Sign up here.

I did the Half Ironman distance last year and I seriously got my ass handed to me! No kidding! I can't wait to do it again to prove to myself that I can do a much better job! If I remember to drink a bit more on the bike and avoid tripping myself on the run I should be good. I will let you know!

There is a sprint too...so no excuses! The swim is super shallow, the bike course is so pretty you wont EVEN believe you are exercising, and the run...it one of the best runs you can find in NE Wisconsin. Sign up, pump up your tires, grab your running shoes and get going! You won't regret it!

This is such a fun thing to do on the 4th of July

I went to this 5k fun run last year and it just blew me away! It was incredible. This year the UW Marching Band is going to be there to play before and after and even on the course to cheer you along! Last year Veterans lined the bridge in full uniform saluting everyone who ran past! It was incredible. If you are in town sign up for this one FOR SURE! The Firecracker 5K

The May challenge

So, the kids came up with the NO FAST FOOD challenge. At first I thought, oh boy...this will be hard for Doug. He likes to just swing through the drive thru all of the time. It is an easy answer for the insane life we have running all around all of the time. Well, we did it! I should say, Yeah...Doug DID IT! Although Emma was HILARIOUS when I asked what we should do for a reward...she said GO TO TOM'S! So cute! I was thinking a hike at High Cliff or even going out for ice cream. So now we will go for another month! Why not? Everyone agrees, it was WAY easier than we thought it would be. The key to it is to always have food on hand at home. I just had to be super prepared with lots of turkey and cheese sandwiches! You can make a little sandwich faster than you can go through the drive thru!
