As promised, the details of Grandma G's family reunion...
After the longest car ride I had ever taken, we finally arrived in Wisconsin. There were people everywhere, plus tables and tables of food...which no one let me taste! We didn't get there in time for the introductions, but lots of people seemed to know who I was anyway. All 10 of Grandma's brothers and sisters were there, along with many of their cousins, most of whom Mommy had never met before. Hmm...if they are Grandma's cousins, that makes them my...ummm...relatives. There we even 3 Maddies at the reunion, but we all spelled our names different (Madeleine, Madelin, and Madeline)! Next reunion, I will be big enough to play with the other kids. I finally got to meet Aunt Jeanette; she is Mommy's Godmother. She was fun to play with, but had to leave early because she didn't feel so hot. Later she went to the hospital and had surgery (she's doing much better now). I guess it was a big day for her too! We stayed later than planned, but everyone was so much fun, and Aunt Janet wasn't getting there until dinner time. I couldn't leave without getting to meet her too. The ride home seemed really long, and I had trouble staying asleep because I couldn't get to my side, the way I prefer to sleep. Good thing I had a week to recover before having to go to on an even longer car ride to a wedding reception on Grandpa's side of the family. I'll tell you all about that day too, but after all this typing, I need a nap!
