Kiss 2009

My pictures are out of order. This is the best picture we could get of the show considering we were using the cell phone. Believe it or not the band members are on the stage.
The concert was Saturday and truly the best concert I have seen to date. As you can see we dressed the part. Actually, we were not as authentic as many of the other Kiss fans were, but don't we look good! Kiss is considered a legend in rock and roll, and they definitely know how to rock out for dudes pushing 60 if not already 60. The accommodations at Amy's very nice house were great. We also got to visit in Greektown and have authentic greek food at an authentic greek restaurant. The COTU's had dinner at Russ's and ice cream on the other grandma and really seemed to enjoy themselves.

Karate & Mud Run in one day

Today was a new event for the Friedgen clan. The group of us enjoyed the show and even had the honor of being hit by some mud.
One of the many trucks that gave us some mud.
The kids are showing off their new yellow belts. Nikki was disappointed that she did not get to break a board. I guess it happens when she goes for the blue. Still, the COTUes are very proud of their accomplishment for the day.

School Days

A very proud and confident freshman. Were did the time go? On the second day of school I had no kids, so I did a 15 mile bike ride. Thank you for the new tire Santani.
Notice the safety belt. He is following in his sisters footsteps. He is very proud to be a safety and especially a fifth grader.
