My Cousins

My relatives left here this morning and I am posting a few pictures of just some of my cousins...The other's left before I got pictures.

I am the oldest grandchild and my brother is next, but this is the oldest of our cousins...Shauna is 12


Our very fun-loving cousin Jalyn, nick named "Jay-Berry" or "Jay-Jay" He is 9..



Bradley, 6, LOVES playing tricks on people, and laughs all the time.


Aimee,4, is a very sweet cousin, and fiesty at times too! She was very protective of Seth, a little too much at times, and Seth would get upset!



My favorite cousin! {almost anyway!} Vaughn is one week older than Seth and SOOOOOOO cute and precious! He is sort of a Mama-baby right now though and didn't hardly let me hold him, but oh well!



As you probably can tell, these are all brother's and sisters....I wish I could have gotten pictures of my other cousins!

Please excuse that I have not been posting recently! My entire family on my mother's side is visiting now and things are WILD! You can imagine with 9 of us, 2 grandparents,8 cousins,6 aunts and uncles and a three bedroom house! My one uncle's staying at a hotel nearby, but the majority is at our house...
3 one year old boys to keep entertained too! We are keeping on our toes! I will post more when I find time...

Reading the Bible in a year

Hello girls! I recently decided I was going to read the Bible in a year...I would LOVE to hear from others who are doing it too. I probably am reading too fast though, as I started in Febuary and am in Psalms already. If you are doing it, I would encourage you to keep it up! Don't get sidetracked or miss ONE day, or it tends to fall by the wayside! At least that is what I have found out for myself. It has been a wonderful encouragement to me, and really helps me with being a better sister, daughter and friend.

Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy Spirit is good;
lead me into the land of uprightness.
           Psalm 143:10

Time To Relax And Recline!
