Burgoon Family Reunion (minus four)














Evan got to be with his cousins and grandparents this weekend.  That may seem mundane to many but for us it is a very big event.  It is true that the three of us may have the military to blame but the rest of the Burgoons are quite widespread.  CA-VA-MD and Holland. This is the first time the 4 littlest Burgoons have been together - ever!  Why is that??  Well, Max and David are Dutch and live in Holland.  We move all the time and can't make family holidays very often.  Dylan lives in Bethesda.  Because the Dutch Burgoons were to be in town we had somewhat of a family reunion in Bethesda.  How wonderful that Nana and Grandpa could fly in from California, also.  Of course, we were missing Sean and Liam from CA.  While maybe too cool to want to hang out with the little guys, we missed them nonetheless.  

So please enjoy the photos.  The boys had fun at the Mall in DC and at the zoo.  Riding on Grandpa's lap on the wheelchair was a total blast.  It was so wonderful to enjoy ALL their personalities - although 2 of the four boys do not speak English we managed to communicate with a little translation.  Quite possibly the highlight for me was watching the great entertainment from David, who did his 5 year old version of Charlie Chaplin, Hair (in French except at the reprise.... 'Let the SHUNSHINE in, Let the SHUNSHINE in....) and Jesus Christ Superstar.  

We missed the Armstrongs - when will we ever get the FULL group together???  ever????
