Matching, Marriage, and a-Mazing

So, first of all I just want to remind everyone (read: Jensine) that this is a blog for both me and my wife and that it is great that we (read: I) have the opportunity to let our friends and family know what is happening in our lives. Imagine how much more everyone would hear if Jensine posted something...anything...sometime...

Aaron was a bachelor for about a week and half as Jensine travelled down to Colorado with her mom and sister Nancy to visit her sister Amy and brother Jerry. Whenever our boys get together with family, they get spoiled, spoiled, and then spoiled some more. Not that I am complaining. The spoiling usually comes in cute clothing. This time, there were several matching outfits for the four cousins (Owen 3, Isaac 21 mos., Adam 21 mos., Austin 5 mos.). One particular cute outfit was also available in their Uncle Jerry's size and here is the group photo:
Adam, Owen, Jerry, Austin, and Isaac (if you add in their cousin Alex, you have a lot of cousins with names that begin with vowels.

Jensine and her mom (and the boys, of course) travelled back to Sioux Falls, stranding in Aaron in Rapid City for another week. Jensine was attending the wedding of one of her best friends, Michelle (who also will be joining Aaron at the University of Minnesota Law School in two weeks). Jensine was a bridesmaid, but never a bride...wait, never mind.

The next week Aaron was able to join his family in Sioux Falls. While he enjoyed the amount of sleep he got without his kids (unless of course, he stayed up until 1am because he was hooked to a book, which of course never happened...) he was very happy to leave the bachelor life once more. What was amazing, however, was that Aaron managed to pack all the stuff left at our house into our oh-so-spacious Mazda Protege. Here is what the grand masterpiece eventually looked like: Rear-view mirrors are for sissies!

We are currently staying in the basement at Jensine's parents' house. Isaac loves being able to hang out with his pa-pa (grandpa) and pa-pa (grandma). He also apparently felt that his daddy's head looked like a nice comfortable seat.
How does this thing recline?

We are headed back to the Twin Cities this weekend and look forward to the glory of couches, mattresses, and cribs (not for us, clearly).

Mark never leaves posts on the blog either. I guess it will always be up to me.

Glad you will be getting back to your stuff and that you are back together as a family.

Well, we had taken a lot of very nice pictures so we decided to take a more crazy picture. However, crazy poses are very limited in formal dresses--so we're pretending to be cats.
