On the 2nd day of Sivan in they year 2449 - a few days before Matan Torah - Hashem informed us that we're a chosen nation:
וִהְיִיתֶם לִי סְגֻלָּה מִכָּל-הָעַמִּים, כִּי-לִי כָּל-הָאָרֶץ
(Shmos 19:5)
As a result, 2 Sivan is often referred to as the Pedigree-Day; Yom-Hameyuchas.
No Tachanun is said during the first part of Sivan; until Isru-Chag Shavu'ot (or a week later - depending on local custom).

Rosh Chodesh Sivan will be on Friday, Shabbat will be Yom Hameyuchas
