Keri & Company

March 29th - Mom and Dad treated us to a Brewer Game for Matthew's belated birthday gift. We had a great time! Thanks Mom and Dad!!


Aw! Mom and the birthday boy before the game.

Dad indulging in the best deal they have in the ballpark! $5 for a huge bag of glorious kettle korn!











Mom and Dad happily sitting in Section 108, Row 14, seats 1 & 2 anxiously awaiting the start of the game.









Matt and me happy with the great seats for our first game this year. We've got the itch to start planning another game - anyone interested, let me know! Just contact Matt's Event Planning service :)






These two had a lot of people in the stands talking. They were doing some of the weirdest stretches - almost seductively - right in front of everyone. Save it for the locker room, gentlemen!








Still, don't know what's going on... but suddenly we felt dirty by watching them.










A moment of silence please.....Here he is. J.J. Hardy or as I like to call him, J.J. Hottie! Yikes, this guy looks good! Yowza!! But of course he doesn't even come close to the striking beauty of my husband, Matthew!









Hart and Hottie doing a Scottish Jig. What a weird pre-game warm up. Ok, you're right that was dumb.









Unfortunately we didn't get to see Ben Sheets pitch, but luckily I snapped a shot of him during warm ups! Hi BEN!!









Here they are! Getting pumped for the big game against the Royals.









Let's get this show on the road! Matt looks on as the game gets underway.









My boy, J.J., fielding a ground ball as Rickie Weeks looks on wishing he looked half as good as J.J.









Action shot of Ryan Braun smashing a double to the center field wall!








Here they come! The world famous racing sausages! That sounds pretty raunchy when you say it like that.













Italian Sausage won. I personally was rooting for Polish Sausage.











Matt was trying to shove his fist into his mouth. Show off! Just kidding, I caught him mid-yawn in this pic. We didn't quite make it through all 9 innings, but I'm proud to say that our boys won 5-2!

Bobbie and I had lunch on Friday! We headed to Backyard for lunch and chat.

This is Eleanor Jo! Bobbie and Bug's new little girl! She's such a cutie and look at all that hair! Matt's jealous :)

Happy Birthday!

From your gorgeous and loving sister, Keri.










This strapping young superman is 27 today! Next year is the golden birthday!









Aww, what a cute little brother I had....

March 27-28th: My first ever "Bitchler" Party! That's right! The GIRLS decided to take our bachelor, Scott, out on the town to celebrate his shortening existence as a single man. We had a blast in Appleton. The night was one of thrills and chills which included everything from hanging blow up dolls out car windows to playing some mean foosball to suffering through awful karoke in Fond du Lac as we toodled around in Kelly's amazing Oldsmobile. Thanks for a great night everyone! It really hit the spot for me! ~Zank

We decided start our bitchler party at Nakishima in Appleton. Great food, good drinks, awesome company. It really was a great time!






Our bachelor, Scott, Katie and Kelly relaxing after their hectic week of bathroom remodeling drama. I give you guys props!







Aww, Julie and I posing for a fierce shot awaiting our chicken and scallops din din.







Katie is a freak of nature - she apparently has freakishly big hands for a little person. Anyway, girls, we all know what the size of our hands mean! Whichever young man nabs this little lady will be very lucky!





Julie showing off just how long HER fingers are. I think she could take Anderson. Look at the size of her tall man!







Scott took my camera and took weird self portraits. You're right, Scott, this one is cool. Can I erase the other 23 that you took?







This is me wondering just where this night would take us? (Scott was showing me how obnoxious my delayed flash is. I GET IT!)







Judy! Down girl! The blow up doll was attacking Scott in the car while he was on the phone with his beloved Katie. Scott liked it.







Andy, Kelly and Scott. Kelly still can't get over that damned comment Julie made earlier about her hoohahs! Damned pink shirt!






Look at the legs on this little hussy! Where does she keep it all?








Our man of the hour, Mosher, looking on as Katie goes spread eagle in the middle of the bar. He was secretly hoping HIS Katie would be able to accomplish the same feat.






This is the point in the night when we realized that the massive amount of alcohol being consumed by our little Anderson was taking over her body and soul.






Heading out to the next bar. Scott displays his beer belly as Kelly looks on in disgust. For the record, Scott says he wears t-shirts very well! You be the judge...






Beautiful contrast of our lovely Ziegler against the panorama of street lights (couldn't quite hold the camera steady at this point).












Making our way through the streets of Appleton doing the delightful bar crawl! Andy is looking back lovingly and affectionately at his little sis - wishing, loving, wanting...






Kelly and I had dueling cameras all night. For the record, we do NOT have dueling blogs! We are "cousins" thus our blogs work cooperatively and have nothing but love for each other.







A Public Service Announcement.

Courtney came to visit me today! Spring Break, baby! Check out the hot wheels!







I think I scared her in this picture! Hehehe...








HOT! Work it! Own it!










Let's hit the road for a walk! And what a walk and talk it was! Love you, Courtney!!








A couple of pics taken post-walk. Awwww, we're cute when were sweaty and windblown!

Okay. So for some reason, a "holiday tradition" has been developed by the beloved Zimmerman family dogs. This tradtion for whatever reason involves one of our dogs, Sami or Stanley, "performing" for us in front of the big bay window into our dining room. Now, these performances COULD take place at anytime, but our lovely canines choose to "take the stage" during family meals. A few years ago, it was Stanley having his way with Sami at Christmas. This year, it is Sami having her way with.....well, just watch. (I apologize ahead of time for the high pitched cackling).

Over the river and through the woods to the Zimmerman House we go!









Stanley senses that we're getting closer and closer to "Grampa's House". Awesome shot of him out the window!!







There it is. The Zimmerman Homestead! We've arrived!








Mama Bear, Barb, sittin' pretty in her rocker. Nice kicks, Mom!









Erin half in the bag holding on to her 15th beer. Holy crap she can drink! Just kidding!






Erin's new beau - Adam. Nice guy, but a little camera shy. I had to take this one on the down low.








Bud sitting quaintly in the chair secretly excited for Easter dinner!







Papa Bear, Jay, watching a little March Madness.
