We accomplished a lot on our recent Wisconsin trip: 2 showers, a wedding, a hockey game, an anti-shower, working in the old lab, eating at a couple of favorite haunts we missed last time around, visiting, eagle watching, etc. First things first, after the plane ride we went to Roxanne's Mom's place for an awesome baby shower! We had a lot of fun visiting and being showered with gifts. 
Here is the fam all together!
Here we are all. They are probably still in Mexico still soaking up rays! Congrats again!
The next day we had a Madtown shower and an anti-shower. Later on they merged and canceled each other out into nonexistence (little particle physics joke there.. HA!). Can you guess whether the below spread was served at the shower or the antishower?
It was the shower... Roxanne had the camera for the shower, so I couldnt take any pics.. but I will use google image search to sum up the awesomeness that occurred at the antishower in Donnie's basement that day...
Back to the real shower, Rx got a diaper cake! how cute!
We both got to meet Chad and Angie's daughter Denali. The 30 seconds of holding her was kind of overwhelming, it made me a little scared about what is going to happen when we get ours...
Here I am in the new Micro building on campus...
It was completed the month I left... damn! It is crazy awesome inside! Very futuristic.
We hit state street for some curds... and photo opps.
On our last night, we went to Warthogs fan appreciation night! Awesome. Afterwards, we went to the Stadium bar. They have my favorite arcade game Buck Hunter Pro. Check it out!!
Here is the fam all together!
And here she is.... styling it up by the presents. Notice the pigs flying in the background. That is a reference to when Roxanne said she would get pregnant. HA!!
We chose to be surprised about the baby's sex, but Roxanne's mom used some northwoods voo doo (see below) to determine that we are having a girl. Evidently her accuracy rate is pretty good, so we are calling the baby 'her' and 'she' now... we'll see I guess.
The next day we went to the wedding of our friends, John and Ericka. Here is the bucky chocolate that everyone received.

Anyway, thanks to everyone for making us feel so welcome and loved and thanks for sharing your excitement about our baby! With all of the wonderful people we had a hard time coming back! We are so lucky to have such a great group of friends and family in Wisconsin.

I had no idea you were recording so much video; I guess I just thought you were framing the perfect shots! Nice one though.
Man, I was really hoping that I would look more tough and less spazz-y holding a gun.
Also, I think cats in sunglasses should be incorporated more often into the standard baby shower.
Emily's shooting style is how I used to play duck hunt on Nintendo. Start a coouple feet away, and then get closer until you are bumping against the screen. fun times, fun times.
