Happy Mother's Day Part 1

We hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day. I was spoiled! I got pj's, a movie, and a homemade card from Karis. Ben is also making one of my favorite dinners tonight... Spiedino Di Mare. I decided that I wanted to spend part of the afternoon playing tourist in my own town. Now you can see some of the interesting things about our community.
Onalaska is known as "The Sunfish Capital of the World." Behind the big fish is the Mississippi. It's only a few blocks from our home.
Traditions Restaurant is apparently the place to eat in Onalaska. The building was once a bank, and you can request to eat in the vault. The rumor is that there's only 7 tables in the whole place. Ben and I plan to try it out to celebrate my new job. It may take my first paycheck to eat there.
Now we're in La Crosse. This picture was taken at Riverside Park. Below are the very friendly ducks. One of them actually nipped at Karis's foot!
