My Husband "Subvet" says that when our first son "Sonshine" was born the sun rose on our world, when our second son "Gator" was born the sun laughed and when our daughter "Sugars" was born all the flowers bloomed. That says it all.

Vacation Day 6 COUSINS!!!!

So, Friday was our long trip down bayou topped off with a super yummy dinner at my Aunt Gay and Uncle Jack's house. They are my Dad's brother and sister in law.

Saturday morning we headed to my cousin's house to play while we waited on the rest of the family to arrive.




At first Sonshine was too busy "being a Knight!!" to come outside
But, fortunately, my cousin had ONE mud puddle in his yard...


And the lure of the mud soon overcame his knightly duties...

















After we got a bath and the rest of the family showed up we found other things to play with....













From Left to Right you have here:
My cousin Brian's 2 kids Brynn (6) and Brock (5),
My kids Sugars (3), Sonshine (6), and Gator (5),
My cousin Raquel's son Zander (2).

This is all of the next generation of my mom's family......so far.....

They had a great time playing together. And it was wonderful seeing my Aunts and Uncles and all my cousins except one on this side of the family again!!

Some of my best memories as a kid are of times spent with my cousins; I've always felt that my kids were deprived as they have darned few cousins.

Oh, and if I'd had the chance to stay inside and play with an Iron Man mask, I'd have done it, too!
