june

Today I am going to set a record for most pictures in one post.  June was eventful with the celebration of two marriages and a family reunion.  It meant two trips to Iowa and one to Wisconsin.  In between, we squeezed in a couple of baseball games, some messy backyard play, home "preschool", and "monkey business" day camp through our parks and rec.

When the kids play with water, Brett is always in charge of the hose and Reggie and Lydia are always in charge of the mud.

The Brewers played at the Twins over Father's Day weekend.  Bryan and I went on a date for the Friday game, and then Bryan took his dad on Father's Day.  The Friday game, the Brewers won (see how happy Bryan is?).  The Sunday game was 15 innings long, with two rain delays, and the Twins won - but the guys still had a good time!

We celebrated my cousin's marriage with a park reception followed by some backyard fun.

The next wedding to celebrate was Bryan's brother, Adam's.  It's always fun to see the cousins play together even though they don't see each other often.

Kiddies checking themselves out in the mirror before the ceremony.  Such cute outfits, no good pictures.

Beautiful wedding!

The kids and I had some "down" time between the wedding and reception.

Party crashers.

When I told the kids we were going to Green Bay, they looked at each other and with a squeal of delight, in unison "Reggie's Birthday!"  Green Bay may have been the wedding location, but will always be the home of The Pack - and the "birthplace" of Reggie!

To the kids, Lambeau Field Atrium seemed like a great place for a quick game of "duck duck goose".

On to our 28th annual family reunion.  The VanHeuvelen men have a tradition of making pancakes.

Josh is seven and a great cousin and buddy to Brett...

...and Lydia!
