Cousins


Are cousins not just the best.

I grew up with a cousin just one month younger than me. Partners in crime we were. One time we passed a house in her neighborhood with a gorgeous yard....so gorgeous we decided to pick the head off of every flower in the flower bed. We loaded up an entire wagon, but why let them go to waste. So, we went door to door selling them. If I remember correctly we made a pretty penny, or atleast we thought we did, maybe $1.75.....split. When we got back to the house and reported our earnings my mother was mortified. She made a teaching opportunity out of it(lucky me) and made me take the money back to the ladies house and tell her what I did and give her the money. I really did not see it as stealing but I sure learned my lesson.


One of the first things that I was looking forward to when finding out Miss Lib was indeed a Miss, was the partner in crime she would have. Peyton is 5 months older and I cannot wait to see the shenanigans they will come up with. Hopefully this is not an indication of the fun to come, but come to think of it, they are girls. We better brace ourselves.

My gosh, Grandma and Grandpa's couch was just plain awesome. I remember it being so scratchy and hating to sit on it in shorts. The carpet is amazing too.
