Wisconsin, Part II

Joe is the youngest of seven children and three of his siblings have returned to live in his home town. This resulted in many family cook-outs of sorts: basically the week (as most vacations do)revolved around eating! His brother Tom hosted a night of and corn and bratwurst. It was the Sweeney's first time eating Bratwurst and we all gave it a thumbs up!


Tom has two sets of twins! Here the younger set is testing out the corn.

I won them over before dinner by playing a little soccer and practicing my "aunt" skills on them. After dinner we caught fire flies and watched the stars come out. Stuart even named a star after me! While I hung out with the little ones the Dads enjoyed an after dinner cigar.
Joe was representing NY even in Wisconsin!
And for fun, a belly update! Joe, I mean Karen is growing before our eyes! I felt the baby kick a bunch of times! It's so fun!

I like reading about your trip to Wisconsin and seeing your pics. I'm glad Sween in the Bean is back in business. Glad you had a nice trip with the family.
