My Weekend as a Ring Bearer



As you might know, I was a ring bearer this past weekend in my Uncle Doug's wedding. Here is a picture of me in my tuxedo with the fancy pillow I carried the rings on.



Here is my Uncle Doug. He is now married to my Aunt Serena.



My Mommy and Daddy were also in the wedding, but despite my best efforts, everyone decided that Cameron was too young to be the candle lighter (so he didn't get to wear a dress or a tuxedo).



My Grandma Diane and Grandpa Tommy came all the way from Holly, Michigan, where they live, to watch me and Cameron. It was lots of fun to see them and more fun to play with them.



We also got to meet our new cousin, Nicholas. He is only six weeks old, and he slept a lot.



Cameron was very excited as the wedding was finally about to begin!



Here I am just before the wedding with Kali, the flower girl. (Cameron blows her kisses every time he sees her!)



Then, it was go time and I went all the way down the aisle.



At the end of the day, it was just me and Daddy, hanging in the parking lot.



Then, Grandpa Tommy reminded me how to be cool in my tuxedo.




Love,
Ben

Bomb Pops!



Again with the food theme, I had my first solo bomb pop tonight. I did pretty good with it.



My brother Ben is a pro at eating bomb pops, but his mouth was still very red.

Love, Cameron

Summertime = Bathtime



You can always tell it is summer when Cameron and I have to take more than one bath a day. Yes, here is our second of the day. The first we got because we were all sticky from raspberry preserves from breakfast and the second because we got all dirty playing in the sprinkler our front.

Love,
Ben

Reemtsma Family Reunion



We just got back from the Reemtsma family reunion. This was the first one I had ever been to, so I got dressed up in my best Hawaiian shirt.



It was out at my Aunt Michelle's farm. Everyone had a good time there. Here's a picture of Ben and Uncle Jayson. Uncle Jayson had Ben's hat on. That was silly.



Here's a picture of the scenery as the party wore down.

Love,
Cameron

Our Trip to the Sculpture Garden



This morning, after the Krispy Kremes, we went to the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. This is the cherry and spoon bridge. It was spraying water out of the top!



Here I am in the conservatory in front of the big glass fish.



And here is my baby brother in the conservatory too!



Here is me and my Mommy in front of a crazy wooden horse sculpture.



The sculpture garden is a joint venture of the Minneapolis Parks Board and the Walker Art Museum (that's the Walker there). We went in and saw some of the art. It really looks a lot like the messes that Cameron and I make at home sometimes. At home, we would have to clean it up, but at the Walker, we couldn't even touch anything.



Here's a picture of me in front of Prometheus and the vulture, whoever Prometheus is.



And here's a picture of me in front of the scooper part of a big scoop.



And finally, here is my and my brother under a crazy thing held up by columns. It was a fun day!

Love,
Ben

Krispy Kreme and the 4th of July



It's a 4th of July tradition in our house to get Krispy Kreme donuts and this weekend was no exception. This time, we also got crazy Krispy Kreme hats!



Here is my traditional chocolate glazed with red, white and blue sprinkles.



And here is Cameron with the traditional original glazed.

Love,
Ben

Ice Cream Cones



It was really hot here in Maple Grove, Minnesota, where we live, so we had ice cream cones at home! Here I am eating one.



And here's my brother with his!

Love,
Cameron
