Basement (with outlets!)

This past weekend we had a fun time with Tonia and Trent. On Saturday we went to Body World's in Milwaukee. That was crazy. Plasticized real human bodies with each exhibit showing what the internal organs, muscles, brain, etc looks like while doing a particular activity. The fetal exhibit and the horse with rider were the most interesting to me.

After we returned from that, we started on the basement wiring project. Up until now, I had been running extension cords to power most things in the basement, so we needed to get some more outlets down there. Luckily for us, Trent not only has the skills to help with that, but also the discounts from working at a large electrical parts supplier.
Doing some custom modifications to the outlet boxes.
The girls were in charge of drilling the holes into the concrete. Put your back into it!
After a few hours of work, the project was complete. Six new outlets in the basement. Excellent. Thanks Trent and Tonia!

On Sunday night I had hockey again after a one week break due to the Super Bowl. We got our butts kicked 7-0. The game was alot closer than the score indicated though. Once again, we had the crappy goalie (the same one that let in 12 goals earlier this year). I hope that our team can play against him sometime this year. But either way, weren't not going to win a game if we don't score any goals.

Willa, Mario, and Vontoux got to play in the sunroom while we were working downstairs. This is like the medium, large, and huge of dog breeds. :) I hope Mario is feeling better!
No Alberto or Levi in this year's Tour? Nice job by the Tour de France organizers to exclude last year's 1st and 3rd place finishers...

I am heading home this weekend to GF to visit family. Looking forward to it!
