Family Photo Album -- Summer 1999


Emma's fifth birthday, celebrated in Rochester, MN

Hanging out with Oma and Opa


August 1999 saw the wedding of my brother Jaakko to Heli. Here are some photos from the auspicious event, held in Joensuu, Finland.

Eli on the dancefloor--he really enjoyed the live music

The happy couple!

We also spent some time vacationing in Finland in conjunction with our trip back for Jaakko's wedding.

Here's Eli with Paappa

Here we are in Porvoo

Left to right, we are: Elias (in the stroller), Mumma, Mikko, Erica, Emma (in front), Miikka (Hanna's eldest son), Hanna (my sister), Jaakko (in back), Heli, Ville (in front, Hanna's middle son), Juha (Hanna's husband), Jussi (in stroller, Hanna's youngest son), and Paappa.


Summer 1999 saw yet another move for our family (our fifth in eight years of marriage; apparently we're destined to move every odd year). Actually, the plan is to stay here in Verona forever, assuming University of Wisconsin decides to grant Mikko tenure as a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
