On Saturday we went to Livonia to attend the wedding of one of Justin's cousins - Wes Mulder. This was the first time Mary had met most of the Mulder family (aunt, uncle and 11 kids). And the first time any of them had met Rebecca and Abram. It was a rare opportunity since many of them live in Iowa and the others are scattered all over. We were only able to make it to the reception, but it was still fun. It was a pretty long trip with one child potty training and the other nursing often...many stops. But we managed it in one day.
Rebecca had so much fun...she LOVES anything related to brides and weddings. She was so excited to get to talk to a real bride. Rebecca also attempted to catch the bouquet. Even though she didn't get it, Julia (the bride) was nice enough to take a rose out of her bouquet for Rebecca. Rebecca's response: "Thank you bride." :)
We enjoyed catching up with/getting to know the Mulders, eating a tasty lunch and even taking some silly pictures (they had a photo booth). Maybe we'll see them again in another 10 years :P Congrats to Wes and Julia!

Sounds like you guys had a great time! Are these cousins on Justin's mom's side? Or his dad's side? That's great that you got to meet them all! I noticed Justin's parents and brother in some of the pics in the album. I bet they enjoyed getting to see you guys again so soon!
The cousins are on Justin's mom's side. She has one brother with 11 kids :)
