Cousins of Summer

Holy cow!  Yesterday happened so fast!  I missed a post.

The weekend of July 4th we had a special family get together to celebrate Father's Day with our Grandpa Herb.  Since he and Grandmama divorced several years ago we plan to do his birthday and Father's Day with him in the "off season" so he can spend those actual dates with his girls. But he is still Grandpa to our kids, so we try to keep up with all this recognitions and celebrations we can and include him in our family events too.

Maddix was here to celebrate with Grandpa Herb, as his mommy and daddy were at the hsspital with new born Baby Aaron.  Maddix "helped" unwrap a few presents for Grandpa Herb.



He is a cute, funny kid--but has so much energy...he made me tired just watching him that day.

Meanwhile, the girl cousins (and Auntie Brenda) were vegging out on the couch, enjoying that the boys were all downstairs.

Nice face, McKay!

We love our cousins--and I'm so grateful my kids and their cousins love each other.  It isn't always like that.  And I know what a blessing it can be.
