Friends,I hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend!

I sure did. I went to my parent’s house and let me tell you—our family knows how to party. We went swimming, played volleyball, and gorged ourselves with food. Yeah, we love food. A lot. My girls were in heaven running around chaotically with all their cousins.This was the first time in a long time that ALL the cousins were reunited. The funny part is all the kids had at least one cousin that is their same age, which is perfect for us parents because they have a build in best friend at family gatherings. Since this is a rare reunion, I just HAD to capture the moment.

These are the eldest of the cousins, who are nine years old! Man, time flies.

Next in line, are these rambunctious boys.

Little Miss Brynners and Maylie are best of friends.

Here is my chunker Summer next to her cousin Nora,who is two weeks older than her

despite their size difference.

These are the newest of the cousins

Jax, Mya, and Emery,

who are all born within months of each other.

We have a pretty cute family—dontcha think?

And I have one more random yet exciting news!  I got my new Marco lens in the mail today and I am just thrilled!!!!!

I took a quick test shot with my own wedding ring on an antique trunk I have in my living room and it just got me all giddy inside!  Can’t wait to use this new baby on my next wedding.

  Have a great weekend everyone!
