Family Reunion in Milwaukee<\/p>\n

My cousin John Powers has about the best job imaginable.\u00a0 As I understand it, he basically goes around the world and drinks beer, and then tells his bosses at the Miller Brewing Company<\/a> which breweries to buy, and they pay him handsomely for it.\u00a0 I hadn’t seen John in years until he visited Virginia last year and we caught up over dinner.\u00a0 At that time John made me promise that I’d come to his daughter Yvonna’s confirmation party as he hoped to have lots of family there.\u00a0 Since Yvonna was already 13 years old and I’d never met her or her brother and sister, I decided a visit was long overdue.<\/p>\n

Milwaukee<\/a> is a great town and John made sure we saw the best of it (or at least drink the most variety of beers in as many bars as possible).\u00a0\u00a0 I really enjoyed the new art museum<\/a>, while all the nieces and nephews ran wild in the children’s museum<\/a>. \u00a0 The highlight of the weekend, however, was Yvonna’s confirmation party at John and Jane’s house in posh Whitefish Bay<\/a>.\u00a0 John’s wife Jane is an amazing cook, and her Greek cuisine is second to none.\u00a0 So with Greek food and German bier, and tons of aunts, uncles, cousins, and second cousins you’ve got all the makings for a memorable family reunion.\u00a0 <\/i>It was great catching up with cousins I hadn’t seen in years, and really enjoyed meeting Cousin Bob’s new bride Annette. \u00a0 <\/i><\/p>\n
