Ok...so Justin responded that he can't make it to Jim's party:
"I would love to drink and sleep over with you, but Cristin and I are heading down to La Crosse for Octoberfest (yes, I realize it is in September, but that is how La Crosse roles). Holler"
Ok...there is a very good reason that LaCrosse (and most any other place) celebrates Oktoberfest mostly in September. That's when Oktoberfest is. It starts in mid september and goes for 16 days. Why would they celebrate it AFTER Oktoberfest is over? That wouldn't make sense. If they celebrated it at a different time, then it wouldn't be Oktoberfest. For how big of a bash LaCrosse puts on for this...wouldn't it just make sense that they would do enough research to make sure they do it at the right time? And for how often you've gone to it, wouldn't you just assume that you already knew what Oktoberfest was all about? Rather than go into a long schpeel about the history of the festival, i'll just end with this...
This year...we as a family have decided to celebrate Christmas in December. Yes, we realize it's not January...but that's how we roll.
P.S. I will post some labor day pictures sometime this week..and probably have a REAL blog entry. Even though it's September.

yes, Justin is kind of a corn-fed mule.
Just kidding Justin, have fun in LaCrosse. I am sure I don't have to tell you to do this, but go find some leiderhosen or something...try to fit in as much as you can.
When most people hear Oktoberfest they think it should be in October. I don't care about the history of it. I just get chrunk and make a fool of myself!
And that's why we love you. I was too busy to blog about anything useful, so I figured why not make fun of you instead. It's quick and entertaining. How was your weekend? I heard you sat at home and got drunk on wine all by yourself. Isn't that what chicks do? You should have come up north.
I am a chick

I love macking.
Cristin calls it "Mac-and-cheesing"
Oh and that is copywrited! (I just made up another word)
