MacGregor Reunion 2012 Recap Part Four

The Bar in Oshkosh is the place to be for the Schroeder family on Wednesday nights and the Wednesday of our reunion week was no exception.The Bar has many sand volleyball courts with league play. Eddie plays volleyball on Wednesdays year round and during the winter months so does my sister Barb, her husband Mike, my brother Mike and  his wife Jody (if they would all stop getting hurt that is). The rest of us go there just as spectators and enjoy some cold beer and delicious wings.

Of course there was something very special about this Wednesday night at The Bar. Remember on one of my previous blogs that I mentioned that some of my family members were treated to a Milwaukee Brewers game? Well, Mike Fiers, an outstanding new pitcher for the team decided to join the family for beer and wings. Mike is from Florida and didn't know what cheese curds were so he got to experience deep fried cheese curds for the first time! Gotta love Wisconsin.Welcome Mike.

Mike came into the place without many patrons recognizing him, but by the time he was ready to leave he couldn't get out the door with being asked for another picture or autograph from a fan. What a great sport he was during all of this. Of course most of the pictures were family members and we informed Mike as of that night he was an unofficial member of the MacGregor family and he even is getting a reunion shirt. We already have three Mikes in this family, this new Mike makes the fourth!

By Wednesday night we had another member of the MacGregor family arrive...Cathy Cruze so that gave us another reason to celebrate and we did. We made many toasts, we harassed the volleyball ref, we ate loads of gooey wings, took lots of pictures, shot pool, but mostly we laughed and enjoyed being with family.
