Things Change






I was going through some old pictures tonight. I couldn't help but realize a couple of things. First how much my priorities have changed. About two years ago I was all about motorcycles and four-wheeling. We would ride for miles on the dried out river beds in New Mexico. I loved those times. I looked at the pictures though and remembered how different of a person I was too. Living 7 states away from friends and family. I think the bikes filled the void I felt for home.

Now that I am back in Chicago, yes I would like to go riding every now and then. But I barely thnk about it anymore. I love being able to hang with my family and friends(most of all Aim) any time I want. Also we are in full wedding planning mode. From cakes to flowers, she has become a machine. Not to mention that were just under 11 months and counting. "THE NUPTUIALS" we have come to call the big day is right around the corner.

So for now the 113 cubic inch engines and the table top pary jumps, will have to wait. But there is always the Bachelor party?

RYSKE Business




Saturday night Aunt Lynda and Uncle Bob treated Aim and I to an awesome dinner at La Vita--- Good calamari better muscles. We had a great time with them, we reminisced and talked wedding. Then they came back to our place and met Luigi-- he was more than happy to meet them for sure.

The tradition continues





Saturday "Big White" my truck broke down. As I was sitting waiting for the tow truck this little squirrel came by and I threw it my toast from my doggy bag. For what ever reason squirrels fascinate my dad, my brother, and me. All three of us call them "Chipper"-FUNNY

DA BEARS!



Bears beat the 4-0 Packers? It feels good to be a winner again.... But Of course this is Chicago so we cant get to excited. This pic was last year with Mike and Billy, the Bears had just beat the Saints and were going to the Super Bowl... Look how happy we all look--

Summer is over kid-



The Cubbies Succeeded in letting us down yet again. Now we have the Bears to look forward to. Which so far this season is depressing as well- Hey at least the Chicago Tornadoes(our female pro LaCrosse team) are 4 and 0-- Sweet
