It has been a good three years since we were able to go to our family reunions or any family functions for that matter. It was so nice to see all the family again, but it is a good wake-up call to see how much the kids have grown. Brayden (bless his little slow-growing heart) had a wonderful time with his cousins although they are beginning to tower over him and are 1-3 years YOUNGER. I know he will catch up just like his brother did. Where you found Brayden, you found Aaron, Ashley and William, and vice-versa. This next weekend, he will go down by the coast to spend time with another cousin, Ricky and Aunt Jan and Uncle Richard. I know he will have a marvelous time and he needs to keep up with everyone. You know cousins can be apart for years and when you meet back up, it is like no time has ever passed. I am so glad my kids have wonderful cousins all over to spend time with. Cousins make families wonderful. JimBob has fond memories with his cousins and the reunions. Some good and some not worth repeating. You can get into the best trouble with your cousins. My cousins were and are amazing. Some I am very close to and some, not so close but I love them all the same.
My only regret from the weekend is not having the guts to get on the tube, or in the boat or in my swimsuit for that matter. I really enjoy tubing but get very hung up on my weight. My other regret is not getting with Dietra and taking Cara to get her first tatoo, that she wants to symbolize her re-birth. Cara is one of those genuine people that you can trust what she says and love her for being her. She is an amazing person and I so enjoy spending time with her.
