My Favorite Cousin...(just kidding Emily!)

Okay, so I don't pick favorites...but I do have a couple cousins who I'm really close with. One is my cousin Emilly (no, she's not the one in the picture) and she just met up with me last week to go swing dancing (and I regret that I forgot my camera). The other is my cousin Brian, who I don't get to see nearly as often. But thankfully...I'm able to spend some time with him now.

Next Saturday, my good friend Jason and his wonderful fiance Diana are getting married. So, my parents and I headed down to Florida for their wedding. And conveniently, a lot of my relatives live in Florida. We arrived in Jacksonville yesterday and are headed to Orlando, then to Tampa, then back to Jacksonville again. No matter how much driving we have to do, it's still great to see everyone again...and I can't complain about the weather, either!

My "Sister's" Wedding

For those of you who don't know, I have more than just two sisters. Okay, I have two real ones, but I also have two more adopted sisters. (Both of them lived with us for a number of years...at different times.)

On February 24th, my "sister" Carolyn was married. It was a small and beautiful ceremony. They were married in a mansion in Lake Geneva. One thing that I thought was neat was that Carolyn prayed it would snow on that day...and God gave her a snow storm! You have to just appreciate his sense of humor...and sometimes you have to be careful what you pray for. ;-)
