Germanfest with Family

Every year my cousins from Germany come down to visit and this year my mom had the bright idea of having a German themed party in honor of her family's heritage. So there was food, desert, and of course a lot of fun! Now since Jay and I are not big fans of German food we found ourselves eating with the kids and enjoying the ever delectable chicken cutlets and Portuguese spaghetti (Jay isn't the only pork chop in our family hence the Portuguese spaghetti)! Anyways while we weren't eating I ran around and snagged a few shots of my cousins and thought they were so cute that they just needed to be posted!!!



So lets start with a few of the younger boy cousins... man o man these boys are a trip!!!




Seriously look at how much fun they have!!




Now on the other side of the spectrum the girls are much more subdued but totally love to have fun!




The adults on the other hand are just a crazy bunch. This picture actually features my mom with all of her siblings!




And if you put the boys the girls and some of the adults together no one wants to focus... hahaha




Here is an up close and personal picture of my cousin Mikey who is from Germany!!! He is such a cutie!!!



Now Mikey, kept trying to hide from the camera and definitly was not going to be caught smiling, so my uncle Andy helped coax a fun face by tickling Mikey!!!



And again the girls in my family are much more up for smiling at the camera here is Mikey's sister Franciska!



And I just had to throw this picture in because I couldn't believe it! Well I guess I can!!! Anyways my parent's have an adorable Brittaney spaniel named Penny and 10PM is her bed time (ironically our puppies night night time is 10pm as well) so since everyone was in the dining room she didn't go and hop into my parent's bed she want and cuddled herself into a dog bed in the corner of the dining room and my mom put a blanket on her and she fell asleep!! I find it so funny that people treat there dog's like they are human :0)






I can not wait until next year!!! Haben Sie ein Haus der sicheren Reise! Tschüss Unkel Mike, Franciska, and Mikey!!
