Family Visit

My husband's family consists of 4 boys and 2 girls. Most of them got to come for a visit on Sunday. *Crazy times* One sister and her family were missing. As well as one brother and his wife, though his two children came down with Grandmama and Grandpa.
There are NINE grandchildren aged 6 and under: 5 girls and 4 boys. And I'm sure the number will continue to grow over the next couple of years! One of the grandchildren...the 4 year old Texas girl...is missing here. As I'm sure you can guess, the kids had a blast!!!! Playing. Running. Swimming. Terrorizing. :) I love that my girls have cousins so close to their age. I didn't have that growing up. But Jet, on the other hand, has more cousins that I am able to know. Jet and I counted his first cousins once...I'm pretty sure the number was somewhere in the upper 50s.

Though we probably won't end up with THAT many first cousins for our girls, I'm so glad that they do have all these built-in friendships to grow up with.

We can't wait to see you guys again soon! xox

I'm not sure there won't be 50 cousins...after you contribute a dozen or so, the others may get the idea and do the same! ;)
