the cousins
this past week was just GREAT; busy, but GREAT! my cousin, Christian, along with her hubby & 3 absolutely beautiful kiddos visited SLO and we were soooo excited to see them and for them to meet their adorable cousin, Braden! it was so neat seeing her kids interact and me realizing that Braden really isn't that far off from crawling/talking/walking, etc...I really hope he doesn't grow up too quickly!! maddie was just in LOVE with her lil cousin ~ it was so sweet. and all 3 of the kiddos were wonderful at asking me if they could see baby Braden and they even asked me if they could touch him and made note that they wouldn't touch his face...great job Christian for raising 3 great kiddos that already respect others!

I just LOVE this picture! it's by far one of my favorite that I will have to print for Braden's baby book! look at him look at Maddie & her looking at him! so adorable!

it was soooo much fun getting to catch up with them and we are determined to get these kiddos together regularly, even though we're 4 hours apart. it had been WAY TOO LONG since we had last seen you guys ~ that can NEVER happen again!

thanks for including us in your vacation, we had a blast hangin' out!
