Party Season

Summer is a busy time for the Bennett/Haller clan. Lots of birthdays and Fourth of July and eating festivals are coming up. We had our first bash of the summer On May 31 at Uncle Adi's house in Westchester. See all the grownups milling about?Grandma's cousin Kristal from Germany came to visit with her son Sven. They stayed with Grandma and Grandpa and Kristal brought me an awesome motorcycle. I impressed her with my counting in German, which for some reason, I do best while walking on the stairs.
Here's Uncle Adi grilling:
Here's Kristal. She takes pictures a lot like Mommy.
Here's Sven. His English was quite good. I think he even could understand me!Uncle Adi had a GIANT lawn. I kept telling Mommy we were in the park! My cousins Ali, Jenna, Lindsey and Katie played with me on the lawn. Jenna is a super soccer goalie -- one of the best in Connecticut and she could kick the ball really, really high. She must have done that for me a million times. Aunt Amber, Eric, Daddy, Katie's mom Lissa and the girls played volleyball in a circle. I learned how to set the ball!


Soccer is still one of my favorites though!

After all that running around, I needed a break. Martha Stewart would say, "Daddy's lap is a good thing."
