cousin power

if you didn't know already, i love my cousins. i got to play with two of my favorite cousins last night. one of them even brought her husband to tag along, which is ok because we happen to like him quite a bit. they came to see my new place and then we went out for dinner...and don't forget those desserts. (sweet mercy, literally).
goodness, we had a good time. it wasn't anything special, but it still suprises me how well we get along. we are all in such different places in life, yet there are still a million and one things to talk about. we can laugh for hours or talk about things close to our hearts. when we get together its guarateed a good night.
we get excited for eachother when good things happen, and rally together during hard times. i can joke about things with these girls that i wouldn't dare say outloud anywhere else. i can be honest with them to tell them when i'm really scared or intimidated, and they say just the right thing to make me realize i can do it. and they are honest with me in giving me advice with boys and the like.


(this is an old pictures, but it's from a very happy day, so i decided to use it.)

ps: everyonce in a while i go through this thought process where i think no one reads my blog. then i have random people admit to being secret blog readers. it's always a little suprising to me, but i love it. i had a friend tell me he read my blog (well, skimmed...but we'll get to that) and i was so suprised. i thought he was wayyyy to cool to read my blog. but then he told me he skimmed, really. he just looked for pictures. so, for those of you secret blog readers that like to see more pictures than text, this is my attempt to please the secret masses. happy skimming.

Bethany said...

HA! thank you katie. yes, that is my efy nametag. i snuck out of a session so i could be there when this dearie came off the airplane from the mission. looking back, i don't know why i kept the nametag on??? i was young and impressionable? or probably way into the summer to the point that i always forgot that i even had it on :)

You are blogging again. Regularly. Look what great things having internet again has done for you (and me).

Bethany, I don't know if you read all of your comments, but I'm a secret reader. I'm not even a skimmer. I read every word. :) I just thought I should come clean.
